Haha! In my mind, yes, in reality, not quite.

The command center is reserved for my living room durring big race days like 12hrs of Sebring and 24hrs of Le Mans.

If you ever make it to FL for Sebring, lemme know. It is a BLAST.

No, he bought the "other" #1.

There were 3 VIN 001 ZR1s. One GM kept, 2nd one (the one sold at BJ) was sold to Dave Ressler and was the only one with LeMans Blue paint, and the 3rd was sold to Jay Leno (the 1st car sold to the general public)

Chris, you are a fountain of information. If I'm ever on Who Wants To Be a Millionaire....you're gonna be my lifeline.

I can see GM keeping a 'non-valid' VIN in their collection, but how can they sell two 001 VINS to the public??

I was there on Sunday and took 100+ pics that I posted here: Barrett Jackson photo gallery

Also I created some profiles of the custom cars I saw and am adding more.

I hope you enjoy!
