GM Tech Center -- Camaro Rally (it's FREE!)-- Thurs, August 10

GM Tech Center - Camaro Rally -- Aug 10th.......

Many of you have talked about gathering your Camaros (and Firebirds) in front of the GM Tech Center to send a message to GM that you want to see the Camaro Concept make it to production.

Classic Chevy International and World Wide Camaro are having a show at the GM Tech Center in Warren, Michigan from Thursday, August 10th to Saturday, the 12th. This is the perfect time to gather and let GM know your feelings.

Plan to be at the GM Tech Center on Thursday morning, the 10th at 10:30. You will enter thru the Van Dyke entrance -- and proceed to the “Amphitheater” -- we’ll have signs leading you there. (see directions below)

YOU MUST HAVE THIS INVITATION TO GAIN ENTRANCE TO THE TECH CENTER---AND.......(here’s a bonus) ---

>>We’ll be giving tours of the GM Heritage Center<<<

-- again, you MUST have this invitation with you........we’ll have a desk set up at the Amphitheater where you will sign up for the Heritage Center tour-- we’ll give you directions -- and this invitation will be your entry into the Heritage Center. Tours will be from 2 to 5 that afternoon.

I realize this is a last-minute plan and I apologize for this. However, I know many of you feel very strongly about showing GM your passion for the Camaro -- and the bonus is that if you do attend, we’ll allow you to view a nice representation of GM’s Heritage Collection -- cars from 1902 to the future -- including many concept cars from the 40s, 50s, --right up to the present.

I hope to see you there!

To sign up to participate in World Wide Camaro Show, simply go to:

www.worldwidecamaro.com -- and click on 1956 Chevy 50th Anniversary Show..........

Directions to the General Motors Technical Center:

Interstate 75 to Interstate 696 East. Exit at Van Dyke Avenue. Turn left onto Van Dyke Avenue. You will be traveling north. Cross over 12 mile road and get into left hand turn lane at traffic light directly across from Campbell/Ewald Building.

Signs will guide you to the Amphitheater. We’ll have ample parking for Camaros and Firebirds.

NOTE: Rally is Free......worldwide camaro show is separate...if you want to enroll for that show, go to the website above.

PLEASE PRINT OUT THIS PORTION OF THE THREAD AND BRING IT WITH YOU....THERE WILL BE A TENT SET UP BY THE CAMARO DISPLAY-- YOU SIMPLY GIVE THEM THIS INVITE (THREAD) AND THEY GIVE YOU DIRECTIONS AND PASS TO GM HERITAGE CENTER. HERITAGE CENTER TOUR IS FROM 2 TO 5PM.

Re: GM Tech Center -- Camaro Rally -- Thurs, August 10

This is the rally that you have all been wanting! A bit short notice, but it is hard to get something like this together with approval and such.

To print the above invitation, click the post number (1) and send to your printer. Make sure you do this and bring it with you or you WILL NOT be able to gain access!

Chris and I are expected to be there, so hopefully you can make it as well.

This is gonna be great!

I would love to, but therein the disadvantage of living on the opposite side of the continent. Heck, I couldn't even get to Vancouver, BC (A 6-8 hour drive) back in March to see the Red concept. I'm such a horrible Camaro owner

My gosh! This is REALLY last minute!!!

Being in the middle of the week during work hours doesn't help.

I hope alot of people make it there, but I suspect only the self employed or retired who live in the area of Detroit will be able to attend.

Re: GM Tech Center -- Camaro Rally -- Thurs, August 10

I haven't even found a replacement for my car that was stolen so sadly I won't even have a Camaro to drive anywhere. This is quite last minute though.
