And the only drag strip in Owensboro is a very dinky looking 1/8th mile that is up for lease and looks like it has zero ability to hold a national style event

Its Bowlng Green,Im sorry I dont know what I was thinking.The Corvette Museum was lost to a big sink hole.There was some nice Corvettes that was crushed.They got alot of them out.There 4 of the Holley shootouts but in Bowling Green its called LSX days and then theres one called LTX days.They guys from Detroit muscle are always there.You see everything you can think of with LSX engine from mustangs to gokarts.Its a great time.Some of you should come down and have a good time.

only a recent addition to the museum was affected, a part called the skydome (i think thats what they called it) All the cars were retrieved. The Mallet sledgehammer Z06 was the most damaged and its not yet known what will happen to it but the other 6 are supposed to be going to GM for restoration eventually.

I think you right,i thought the Z06 was a total loss but im not sure.Im just on whast on line.And there many different things being said.I do know 1 person that worked there came back home.he was saying he would be out of work for several months until it was fixed.I hate to see them nice cars hurt any at all tho.Don they make the new COPO there or not?

The museum is open now.... Just barriers around the one section.

How can a car be a total loss when the car is owned / possessed by the company that made it? They can literally swap the vins onto a new unissued tub and "rebuild" from there
