Super Hard Bonus Question:

This question is open until 10:00PM PDT!!!! At 10:00, I will lock it! First one with the right answer(s) wins!

================================

Three-part question:

The first Corvettes were mainly distributed for celebrities and GM execs. But a few did make it into the hands of consumers. This question is about just those Vettes:

Who was the dealership that delivered the first consumer Corvettes?

Where (city and state)?

Who bought them (not specifics, but the family name)?

HAHAHA

Congrats to Rolla! Wish I could have played, but it was a work night....oh well.

I have a suggestion along the lines of what Tommy said. I think you should have a roll call first and require a set number of players...ie, minimum of four, or something like that. Also, you could give a half point for the second person to have the correct answer, because sometimes it's just how fast your computer loads, not if you know the answer or not. That might make the race a little closer.

Just a couple friendly suggestions.

Matthew

PS - where did you come up with the über question and where the heck did Woodstock find the answer????

Sorry I missed a good game.

Ah, you found that site, too!

I am glad the car has been preserved. It has a TON of history. I bet it's worth a mint.

For the floor, why I picked that question? I am from Delaware. I knew about that trivia before hand... it's a bit of local lore, really. It had been in the local paper, that kinda thing, during the 50th anniversary celebrations.

It is now time to lock this weeks thread!

We do need more people playing, tho... I hope to start drumming up more support.
