I used to live in Boiling Springs right near Carlisle. Great area, and I really miss being able to go to those shows. The parade through downtown was always a lot of fun too. Hope they are doing that still...Covid killed it at least one year while I was there. I actually decided to get my Mach 1 after seeing the first year they showed it at Carlisle. I also saw the C8 the first year they showed it there and got an awesome poster from that show too.

There’s an ELB HTC with two-tone black/gray seats that I’m dying to see more pictures of if it happens to be there and someone feels generous with posting pics.

Thanks for the pictures. I was trying to decide if we had enough time to get there before we leave for vacation. But now I will make time to get there.

Trying to make sense of the Z06 wheels is the worst part of posting pictures... production black wheels are going to be glossy and not matte yet the matte version is still on some cars. The 70th anniversary wheels used to be matte black with red stripe but now are going to be satin graphite with red stripe... uggh. Seems like some cars still running older wheels there as well.

First world problems!

They didn't have any cars with them there, nor did they have that wall display with the different wheel options. Even asked the GM rep; all she offered was a picture in the booklet.

Kudos to John. Had a great conversation about the new cooling systems on the car and he was very helpful and great to talk to.

I'm glad GM continues to send the real engineers to explain about the car and answer questions. It's always a Carlisle highlight for me.

Here is John Albert Corvettes Engineer on Cooling speaking for about 24 minutes about the Z06 cooling difference versus Z51:

The graphite wheels have black center caps. The Titanium wheel center caps are much lighter - not silver, but much lighter than those center caps.

I would be more worried about those marks on the CCB rotors!
