A HUGE Thank-You to Keith Seymore!
 

I was in Michigan this weekend to pick up a car and got the chance to get the grand guided Motor City tour from Keith Seymore. :D

It was short notice, less than a week and my weekend was pretty crazy with other activities and stops but Keith was more than flexible, giving me multiple times & making himself available for the 5 hour tour! It was fast paced and I'm not sure we ever came to a complete stop but I saw everything from the Packard Plant to the Pontiac Plant & everything on/off Woodward in between. He even brought me by his house to show me his & his father's cars and through the GM Tech center!

His depth & breadth of automotive knowledge is second to none & the stories he relayed of his father's early racing days were fantastic! What a great afternoon Keith & I can't thank you enough!

Some pictures below of the journey, not the best but they were taken from a moving car! Thanks again Keith! :clap2:

More pictures....Royal Pontiac & the Tech Center.

Also a big thank-you to Brian Halloran, (Guilty here on the board) for letting me crash at his place & for getting me into a GM property I probably shouldn't have been in! :thumbup:

you should come back for the dream cruise. that's a real treat too. ;)

I'd love to but probably have too many trips booked for this year already to get away with it. This weekend was a little unexpected, but came together nicely! :D

I should also thank Jeff Denison for the great muffler he left for me & for the tour I got at Dan Jensen's when I picked it up!

I put on over 1600 miles but I had a great weekend! :thumbup:

Is that a Buick you're rid'n around in???

That's really cool that Keith would give you a personal tour!

Keith is a great guy, remember when several people gave him a rash about his dad's intake? That wasn't right, to him or his dad.

Thx for sharing these pix. Spring mountain Vette peaked my interest; here's the link http://www.springmountainmotorsports.com/

Sounds like you had a great time in the Detroit area. Many of the pictures look familar.:cool:

yea same guys who trashed their gto, same guys who trashed my ra5 knafel judge, same guys who trashed .................................................. ....................... you know it goes on and on all because they read it some book written by a biased or not totally informed person.

I have known Keith since the late 90's. We were 1 and 2 in points in the NSCA/NMCA the same year. Great guy and a great racer. I had the opportunity to meet his late father at a few if the NSCA races. I wish could have recorded those conversations.
Sounds like a fun trip!!!

It's just too bad that you were out there to get a Gen 3 Camaro. :p

You should have heard Tieman when Rick asked why you weren't at Musclepalooza. "A Camaaaro?! What the hell does he want with a Camaaaro?!".... It went on for quite a while. :pound:

I can almost hear Scott's twang in that....

Funny, I can too! :D

I could hear him in my head as I typed "Camaaaro". :D

Kuddos to Keith! It's on my bucket list to meet Keith before I pass on. He's been a great friend here on the board. We came close one year when he was racing down here at Atlanta Dragway, but I didn't know it before it was too late.

Musta been an 88-89 IROC-Z
and a REAL sweet one at that
i'm betting

Boss, Looks like you got the lucky dog this week.
