Unmodified C8 of the Year 2021 Finalist
yeah .....
yeah ...... is there any news ?
What about the "new" colors ?
Have they showed the new colors ?
Oh ... probably going to wait until Friday
after everyone has left ... great move.
Two or Three years ago ... They debut
Sterling Blue and Black Rose on Thursday
which was a smart move. After seeing these
colors posted on Thursday, I decided to
take that Friday off and drive up from
East Tennessee. Spent a little time in
Bowling Green and spent a little money
in Bowling Green that Friday. I guess that
I will work tomorrow and keep my money
in the bank.
Oh well, typical GM and Chevy.
Over and Out .......

Remember all the spy photos; every wonder what was under the camouflage wrap?
The NCM HPDE was Monday and Tuesday prior to the Bash; Andy Pilgrim was out hot lapping one of the ZR1's......of course he had the car dancing on edge and flat out into the bus stop. When he dynamited the the brake peddle, the On-Star lady came over the speaker and ask "is everything OK? I'm showing a collision sensor has gone off". Andy said, "I'm on a race track, I'm fine". One lap later, in the same place, it happened again, so into the pits Andy went where the GM engineers promptly disabled the On-Star.

Love the torch red, chrome wheels and the smaller wing combo. The big wing, although functional on the track, looks too much like a goofy JC Whitney add on for my tastes on a street car, although some vette junkies like my two brothers really love the look. Maybe it will grow on me over time. Great to have choices.

No one has commented on this thread from jagamajajaran but this is from this year's bash:

I don't know if this qualifies as news to you or not.
