National Corvette Museum to Unveil C6 in April

Looks like the NCM will get a C6 for there C5/C6 Birthday Bash during the weekend of April 22-24. Part of the event includes rides in the C6.

Also there are having a raffle for a new C6 tickets are only $10.00 the drawing will be in Sept.

They are also having a raffle of a '04 Commemorative Edition Corvette Z06, Convertible,& Coupe. Those tickets are $150 each and are limited to 2,004 tickets.

I've been to there F-Body events and I might go to this Corvette event to get a look at the C6 and slap down 10 bucks for that C6 raffle.

You can buy tickets for the raffles here, as with any NCM raffle.

BTW I think I would take the 04CE Z06 over the C6 just for collectability, but the real question is which one is faster?

:edit I never said I was a math major:

Wow that works out to about $30K, must be just enough to cover the cost of building the car. Isn't it cool how that stuff works out.

$150 x 2004 tickets = $300,600 ...

The annual "Big Red" raffle proceeds go to the Western KY Univ Athletic foundation.

I have no idea where the $300K is going.

Go Hilltoppers! (alum here).

So they are auctioning off 3 cars? That's a 1:668 chance of winning. That's not bad at all if true.

Yes they are raffling off 3 cars, but the big question is are they selling a total of 2004 tickets or 2004 tickets for each one?

I would assume that all that money is going to the massive expansion project that has just recently started. That place is going to be huge when they get done.
