Default 2020 Corvette First Drive Program Media Videos (all in one place)

On January 2, Chevrolet invited various media entities to send one representative to their 2020 Corvette First Drive Program. The invitation read:

Join us the week of February 17, 2020, in the Las Vegas, NV area and at Spring Mountain Motor Resort to be among the first to get behind the wheel of the reimagined 2020 Corvette Stingray - Chevy's fastest, most powerful entry-level Corvette in the vehicle's 66 year history. We look forward to having you or a representative from your team there. Sincerely, Your friends at Chevy.
The first of several groups began the program on Monday, February 17, with subsequent groups following the first group each day this week. There will be a plethora of videos produced and articles written by the various media outlets over the coming days and weeks. I will post the videos and articles here for easy reference. If you find and post one in a comment, I will add it to this post as well. Enjoy!

That last guy has 1k subscribers. I think I have that on my youtube channel. Maybe I should try to appeal to GM so I can go test drive a Z06 when they come out.
