The Nitty Gritty:
Welcome to Episode 60 of the Pro-Touring.com Podcast!
We’re simul-posting the show show here on TheMuscleCarPlace.com as well as on Pro-Touring.com so everyone can get their fix.
For those new to the scene, the Pro-Touring.com podcast show is hosted by myself and Larry Callahan, the owner of Pro-Touring.com.
The show is sponsored by the fantastic hot rod wiring supply company, Ron Francis Wiring, and we’re very appreciative that they were our FIRST EVER show sponsor, and the first sponsor to re-sign for 2014!

5) Finally….everyone else posted this one, so we will as too. Kentucky’s National Corvette Museum fell victim to a 40-foot-wide, 20-foot-deep sinkhole that opened up in the facility’s yellow Sky Dome wing. Did you know that they did build some 1983 Corvettes? I always thought there were none manufactured. Actually [43] 1983 Corvettes were made before GM decided to scrap them and move on to the 1984 design. Victims included:
— a 1983 Corvette (the only one left)
— a 1984 PPG pace car
— a 2009 ZR1 “Blue Devil”
— the 1992 white “1 Millionth Corvette”
— a 1993 ruby red “40th Anniversary Corvette”
— a 2001 Mallett Hammer Z06 Corvette
— the 2009 white “1.5 Millionth Corvette”
— a 1993 ZR-1 Spyder

The Gigantic 2014 Events List
The season kickoff is finally here! By the time we record our next show we’ll already have two events crossed off of the list. Be sure to look for an event near you this year, and even if you don’t drive in one, go check out the fun. You won’t regret it!
