914World.com _ 914World Garage _ OT: Anyone have the day off?

Posted by: skline Jan 28 2005, 09:59 AM

I have a guest pass for the AutoShow in Motion from GM, They give you the keys to drive any new GM vehicle on a track. I have to be there at 11 today for a noon drive. They let you drive any GM car or truck on a test track. I will put a link in for the web site so you can see it. I figured I would ask and see if anyone wants to go along.

Well, its not rainging down here. I am getting ready to head down there to get checked in and look around a bit. Besides, it aint my car I am driving there. I wanna drive the new vette and the GTO and the SSR. They also have a hummer there with a dirt course setup I heard. Could be fun.

I thought the Caddy was more impressive than the Vette, They make you drive with someone in the car that tells you how to drive it. The Caddy was louder than the Vette. No, they didnt have any Z06's there at all. They also had a really cool Caddy called a SLX or something like that. $76k and only one there and they wouldnt let you drive that one either. They only make 5000 of them a year. The car was very impressive and is built on the Corvette chassis. Big bucks. I got there at around 11 and hung out till 1:00 when it started raining. The SSR didnt handle as good as my S-10 but it was strong considering it has an LS6 in it.
