    yep that's what I heard on the raido

    Skydome Sinkhole “Great 8” Exhibit

    When: Fri, Apr. 18, 2014 - Sun, Aug. 3, 2014
    Where: National Corvette Museum

    On February 12, 2014 at 5:44. a.m., the National Corvette Museum received a call from their security company alerting them of their motion detectors going off in the Skydome area of the Museum. Upon arrival it was discovered that a sinkhole had collapsed within the Museum. No one was in or around the Museum at the time. The size of the hole is approximately 40 feet across and 50 feet deep.

    Eight Corvettes were affected by this incident. Those cars include:

    • 1993 ZR-1 Spyder on loan from General Motors
    • 2009 ZR1 “Blue Devil” on loan from General Motors • 1962 Black Corvette
    • 1984 PPG Pace Car
    • 1992 White 1 Millionth Corvette
    • 1993 Ruby Red 40th Anniversary Corvette
    • 2001 Mallett Hammer Z06 Corvette
    • 2009 White 1.5 Millionth Corvette

    Two barrier walls have been installed between the Skydome building and the rest of the Museum. One wall includes a video monitor which shows live webcam footage of the work being completed in the Skydome. The other wall incorporates a plexi- glass viewing area so that guests may witness the sinkhole for themselves from a safe distance. Both areas are part of the museum tour and included with regular admission.

    Yes, if all is good to go around that time, we will be there. Hell, it's only a 2 hour drive, so we wouldn't even need a hotel room LOL.

    And thanks Lori, Alan, Bridgette, and the rest of the NG Committee for doing this.

    That would be cool if there is anything that we can do to help you organize it let us know.
