If they're after the Porsche crowd, they should focus on Flushing Meadows.

As in Queens/NYC?
I used to go to the bicycle races at the Kissena bike track there back in the '70s.

Default Sort of agree with decision

GM probably realized that not a real good pr move for thebcompany considering the bail-out. And from a sales prospective the corvette is aimed at such a small niche market that the return on the cost would be prohibitive. But I think Porsche did run on their cars, of course Porsche does have a complete line of cars, and if they still only had the 911 they wouldn't have paid for an ad either.

IMO of course

Well I was thinking about the tennis tournament.

I've also lived around a famous tournament location. And if you'd have mentioned that place, I would also have thought about the location, and not the tournament. ;-)

Okay, maybe they should aim at sponsoring Wimbledon. The Porsche mob won't settle for less.

Yes true, that's a pretty big deal in that area every year at the end of the summer.
