QUOTE (LT4Firehawk @ Oct 29 2004, 10:05 AM) QUOTE (trackbird @ Oct 29 2004, 06:10 AM) I believe it was one of the "one lappers" on this board that said a Corvette had onstar activate (during the one lap of america) at 140 mph on a road course to tell him that he was exceeding the design limits of his vehicle or some such statement. Onstar only became available on the 05 Corvettes, of which none have participated in a one lap event yet. For that matter, I haven't even heard of any of them actually making it to a roadcourse yet over on Corvetteforum. Back to the main discussion. GM has been putting these boxes in their cars since around 97 depending on the model (I believe the first was the 97 C5). I don't really have a problem with them being in the car, but I do have a problem with the data being used against my will. If I pay for the car, I expect to have complete control over it and determine when/if it's used for anything. Interesting. I'll have to check that out then. I'm not sure of the vehicle, I thought it was a vette, I may be wrong, or I was misinformed. |
