RE: [DML] DCS 2010 questions

Way back when a friend of mine who knew I was a D fan gave me the ad for the contest. The winner was to be flown to the DMC assembly plant and "turn the final screw" on their new car. IIRC it was co sponsored by Pioneer or another hi end audio company. 

 

>From what you saw imagine the winner arriving at the plant expecting a car and seeing nothing but a lot of blank stares.

Subject: [DML] DCS 2010 questions

  



I had a great time at DCS 2010! Thanks to Ken, Marc, and everyone else
who worked so hard so the rest of us could just enjoy the show.

I do have a couple of fun follow-up questions from the show, though.

-- What DCS show so far has been the largest in terms of number of
people and number of cars? How many cars/people came to DCS 2010
(Ken usually announces this during Saturday dinner).

-- In the Delorean Archive, there were a couple of letters between
Penthouse to DMC about a contest where Penthouse gave away a Delorean
in a sweepstakes... Penthouse wrote along the lines of "We talked
about doing last year, and now that we've given away a Delorean.. when
can we expect delivery?"... and DMC basically responded "Wait, what?"
I'm curious how this ended up.. did DMC send them a car in exchange
for "promotional consideration" or was Penthouse left holding the bag
on the sweepstakes?

-- And finally, I saw the Toy "Claw Crane" Vending machine in the
hallway during the show with an "Out of Order" sign on it... and then
on Sunday, I saw Ken loading it up into a truck. Is this some inside
joke or other Delorean reference I don't get? Seems like a long way
to transport the cabinet which doesn't work. Was it at other shows,
too?

thanks,
