So, I was looking for information about this year's Chicago Auto Show, when suddenly...

ABC 7 News has a picture of me doing a time trial against Tanner Foust and Scott Speed back in 2015.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Neat!

I also received my passes last night. I’ve decided to go to the Concept & Technology Garage this year, so double the coverage from me!

If you beat Scott Speed, I think you automatically get a Toro Rosso seat

You edited out your last name because it’s CLA250, right? :D

I wish!!! I actually got an autographed VW swag bag with more autographed goodies. Think I got either 1st or 2nd overall over everyone who raced.

There must be quite a line for that seat.

Looking forward to seeing what you find. I didn’t do the media pass thing this year. A couple other shop teachers and I are taking a day off to go during the week.

I used to be a CLA250, but now I’m totally an AMG GT 

Though in reality, Mercedes isn’t my legal first name yet, so no issues posting that! But my last name is legal and is linked to my older identity, which I prefer to remain dead. lol

I’m expecting our passes any day now! We’ve had media passes the last few years but never made it to the preview days. So, possibly stupid, question here -- If we go on Thursday, it’s still free roam, right? Even though the press conferences and such are going on.

Ah! I’ve been getting the media passes since like, 2013 or 2014 now? Thursday is still a free roam, but it’s more geared for formal media, so they have a sort of “business attire” dress code for the day.

I’ll be there on Wednesday and Friday. :)

That’s what I thought, I did notice the attire request on the schedule, no big deal on that one. I think we are just going Thursday, but you never know, maybe a game time decision to go again Friday.

Unfortunately not able to go Wednesday but might go to the ‘after party’ Thursday night.

Might want to re-photoshop that to remove the barcode and the number below it, the barcode could still be deciphered, and the number is still readable. (Feel free to dismiss this comment once that’s done...)
