The Honor Flight Camaro is not quite done yet with the fun and adventures. This week it's stored in Michigan awaiting next Sunday's NASCAR race at Michigan International Speedway. We have been able to arrange to have the car take a parade lap around the track just prior to the big race on Fathers Day to help promote Honor Flight. It's appropriate since NSK, my day job, supports a Families of the Military event during the MIS weekend.

My dad's 97-year old older brother, a WWII Navy veteran, lives in Warren, MI and will be able to ride shotgun. Though not the same as our high-speed runs at Daytona, it's a great way for both of us to remember my dad and all of those that have sacrificed so much.

If any of you are at the race let me know and we can try to meet. The car should be in the parade lot after the lap.

Very cool, Congratulations Carl.

Here's how not to take turn 2 at Talladega Gran Prix. I will kick myself in the backside for years to come for this. The video includes the recon lap.

My version of it is -- if you don't spin once in awhile -- you weren't driving hard enough....


Must be why I spin every track weekend... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Gotta agree with Greggers. :D

What a fun track.

Carl,

I enjoyed the vid, spin and all. :D

Must be a great feeling looking out over the hood and always seeing those stars.
