So apparently the OnStar telematics will watch over you for “Hard Braking” and “Hard Acceleration”. I suspect this could be used as a method of judging your track work, using golf scoring (Lower is better).

Kinja'd!!!

On the plus side, 8MPG for putzing around a road course isn’t too bad. I kind of wish it also kept track of high lateral G events.

They swear that data isn’t sent to insurance companies... Did you get an email from GM giving you 3 free years of onstar in the last week?

No, because I just got the car Friday evening. So no three years of service for me. Or something.

Congratulations!

It’s some weird email that some of us received from GM.
