Dale Jr Foundation.

OK, I can't take it any more and got to share. As GA_ told me last night, I might burst at the seams if I hold this in. I have bought a single $25 raffle ticket to win Dale's ride for the last 7 years. Since it's already on his Facebook & Twitter....Your fellow iboats member is the proud owner of a 2017 Corvette with an additional $31K added on for Federal taxes. Kelley Earnhardt called me yesterday and she is a down to earth sweetheart. This dude is a slightly stoked.

I have no business owning, driving or insuring a corvette. The owner of the company I work for is a high end car guy and knows some people. I might find an old Chevelle when I retire....more my speed.

Ha! Glad you didn't try to hold it in longer! I'm really happy for you. Definitely need to see some pictures!

There will be many pics once I get the notice of when JR can be at his shop to autograph it and hand me the keys. They do a photo shoot promo. I'll be sure to snap some of my own. Put some clear tape on your computer screen to protect from my ugly mug cracking it.

The grin on your face should be big enough to cover anything else we shouldn't see

wow fantastic! congrats.

funny an older friend of mine just bought that same car. I asked him why that instead of an older chevelle or nova or even an older vette.

his answer was simple. he didn't want something he had to work on, just go drive and have fun.

you should keep it and enjoy it. besides you know what they say................"chicks dig it"

I've always loved Vettes. The new ones are awesome! Both me and my daughter drool over them. And yes, that is my favorite color....

Does anyone have any business owning one, probably not. But who cares, you have a lot of peoples dream car! Drive that sucker!

Congrats, Sam!

Ps. I'll be in line right behind Art...... :car:
Pss. I'm going to forward that link to my daughter....

[avenger79]

wait a minute! what was I thinking? I can help you out with your dilema about this versus an old car.

I have a 1973 super beetle, will trade even up, sight unseen. I will even deliver. LOL

it is actually my girlfriend's car but I feel pretty sure she won't mind

 

[aspeck]

I'll go a little newer than avenger and trade you even up for my daughters 2005 Grand Am GT 2dr with 138K on her ... just broken in! And I will even do the body work that is scheduled for next week (rocker panel repair).

 

[sam60]

Guys, thanks for all of the congrats & trade offers! :laugh: I still don't know when I fly to Charlotte to meet Dale & get the keys but as more time passes, my mind is starting to wander a bit....driving it to work Fridays, a drive through Red Rock, out to Lake Mead, Etc.

Then my wife pops into my head to remind me that we don't owe much on the house & should pay it off and have plenty to do kitchen and bath remodels.:facepalm:
