    Hey from the South Carolina Coast. That looks like a blast ! Would love to take my 2007 Z51 3LT I bought new. Have only 10k miles on it. Atomic Orange Metallic. What was the cost for something like this ? Also love your channel brother. I'm guessing my 95 and 96 coupes and my 64 coupe would not be a contender there 😂

    Awesome video Ken! Was great to meet both you and Ben! Really enjoyed watching Ben's progress throughout the day. Look forward to working with you in your car in September!

    Nice to attend even if you don't belong to the Ron Fellows group. Changing brake fluid next!

    Great video brother, HPDE is what I do with my C5 and love it! It’s hard to get good images from track days, but if you can nail it you have it made. Keep up the good work!

    Excellent video I have never been on a track and this looks great. I am going to research Suburban Corvettes to find out more about it. Thank you.

    Hi Ken. I am from Allentown, Pennsylvania. I would drive to Minnesota and make a mini vacation out of this. Looks great! Always wanted to do this. Is this event held every year? Is it open to anyone? By the way, “Corvettes at Carlisle” is coming up soon in my area. Have you ever been there? It’s one of the largest corvette car shows in the country. It is held annually in August. Carlisle is about 45 minutes from Hershey, PA. P.S Love your videos. Learned more about my C5 over the past several years than ever before. Thanks! Pat

    Great Video, have not had the chance to track/or go to any events in my c6, my follow up question is do you have an email or instagram? Have a product I would love to discuss with you and send your way?
