PWA - V

And to drive the CTS-V you need to drive one of the other cars first.

There's always a ridiculous line for whatever halo car they have at ride and drives. I waited for an hour and a half to drive a Camaro SS one time.

I was there when they opened so I went through all the Cadillacs without waiting. There was a 40 min wait when I left.

I actually liked the V Sport better than the V though.

[FenwickHockey65]

I would too. One was just launched, the other launched in 2009.

I've never driven a CTS, but the first time I drove a Camaro? Pretty cool.

First Camaro I ever rode in was Scott's CTF car.

See if there's a show around you that will have them. The V Sport had me giggling like a little girl all the way around the convention center. My car doesn't even do that....

Not sure when/where a ride and drive would be but the big auto shows were back in November.

Alpha is a ridiculously better chassis than Zeta.

It couldn't really get a feel for the chassis since it was in the middle of Baltimore, but the guy had me launch it from a stoplight and that engine and transmission was just fantastic. I had it in sport so I can only imagine what it would be like in track.

California School Sorry for Black History Month Menu

Students and parents found the menu of fried chicken and watermelon offensive

A school in northern California apologized this week for a Black History Month lunch menu that offended students and parents.

Administrators at Carondelet High School for Girls, a private Christian school in Concord, Calif., had announced earlier this week that they wanted to celebrate Black History Month during lunch this February by serving the students fried chicken, cornbread and watermelon, a local NBC affiliate reports. But parents and students quickly expressed outrage at the stereotypical choice. Principal Nancy Libby issued an apology letter to parents and held an assembly for students on Wednesday, NBC Bay Area reports. “I’d like to apologize for the announcement and any hurt this caused students, parents or community members,” Libby said in the letter. “Please know that at no time at Carondelet do we wish to perpetrate racial stereotypes.”

Throughout the early 20th Century, watermelon was often used in minstrel shows that caricatured black people. Fried chicken, a Southern staple, has also been stereotypically linked to African Americans. In the 1915 film Birth of a Nation, which depicted the founding of the Ku Klux Klan, the black characters in the film ravenously eat fried chicken.
