I don't know if I can do this because the facility has changed and downsized so much it's not recognizable BUT,

If people are interested I can try to arrange a tour of the GM Desert Proving Ground. As I said, because of the changes, I don't even know if they do this any more.

Anyhow, if interested let me know relatively soon......Saturday will NOT be a regularly scheduled work day for them and a sponsor will need to escort.....and I'll assume the date of Feb. 9th.

Oh, a couple of parameters.....no cameras inside the property, no weapons, no alcohol (fuel is o'k ), no kids under 18.

O'k my fellow HHRonians.....

As of this day, our tour of the GM Desert Proving Ground, Mesa AZ, is approved for February 9th at around noon. This is pending any last minute "covert" testing by them and/or any of the 3-4 tenants of the facility. At that point, the tour will need to be cancelled.

Because Saturday is a non-work day, I may be conducting the tour personally. However, the Facility Director is attempting to locate an Engineer or Senior Project Technician who may need to work that day. If that is the case, that person will be our guide and moderator (which will prove more interesting than me).

If you are wishing to attend, I will need the first and last name of ALL attendees (the birth rights or birth certificate to your first born son, the title of your home and HHR and your ever lasting gratitude....this is a joke folks ). But I really do need the names for the Visitor Pass. Oh, we are limited to a TOTAL of 12 people (including me) for the 12 passenger van.

Again, no weapons, no cameras, no alcohol, no kids under 18.

The GM DESERT PROVING GROUND is located at 13303 S. Ellsworth Road, Mesa.

Get your names in...and I will keep you updated .
