We’ve helped a lot of charities raise money for various reasons but when we can help kids who find themselves sick with cancer for no fault of their own, it really strikes a chord within us. It also reminds us how great you are for stepping up and helping causes like fighting childhood cancer. This week we are putting our spotlight on PAL’s Heroes, a Tennessee-based 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that raises financial support for St. Judes Children’s Research Hospital.

PAL’s Heroes is raising funds for this endeavor with a sweepstakes for a 1969 Corvette in Monaco Orange. The car is slated to be given away on December 23rd and there is also a $40,000 cash option.

[RUMOR] Did Chevrolet Share the Reveal Colors of the C8 Corvette Z06 in the Last Teaser Video?


It was back in 2019 that Chevrolet began teasing us with the C8 ahead of the official July 18th reveal through their use of short videos shared to social media. One of the defining elements of these teaser videos has been the inclusion of Easter Eggs for Corvette enthusiasts to interpret for additional clues. Now that the C8 Corvette Z06 is officially in the pre-launch phase, Chevy has offered two teaser videos so far and we think we might have spotted a pattern worth discussing here.

We had the opportunity to attend the National Corvette Museum’s 27th Anniversary Celebration that was held over the weekend and it was great to be around friends both old and new during the three-day event. The show offered a number of guest speakers who educate and entertain us, and the museum records them all both for their virtual members but also to share on their YouTube channel. Today the NCM offered up the first full seminar from the event featuring a Corvette Team update.
