Will the Z06 fest be your first visit to the NCM and/or assembly plant?

BTW, the C6 will be the only Corvettes on the line during our Fest....C6 Production officially starts on July 19th.

1st time on both......it will be great to see the C6 in person!

This will probably be at least my 30th time to the Midlux vette plant. Been going at least twice a year since 1990.

It's our first time there also. I will probably take the Ratlets in the store while Pat takes the tour since I don't think Ratlets meet the age limit

Hope your right about the C6 on the 19th ,I remember seeing the 26th written somewhere and thinking that the plant might be shut down during the fest for the change over.

No, no, it's just Southeast of Northwestern North Dakota, near, South Carolina.

GM's Mid-size/Luxury Car (MidLux) Group. I've been there many times. I have never got to start up a Vette or ride in a Vette on during the Dynamic Testing (rollers), My wife has done both.

Kat, I'm sure there are several of us that will volunteer to Ratlet-sit while you take the tour with McRat. I've been on the tour before and am willing to help out (my kids are 15 and 10, but I'm alone this trip). However, I understand if you are somewhat wary about letting them out of your sight.

I have been to both several times as I only live about an hour away. Lots of great memories from seeing Zora drive the bull dozier at the museum ground breaking to talking with Larry Shinoda outside of the plant one day at the National Corvette Homecoming. The first time I went to the plant they were still assembling the C3!
