Lloyd Reuss & his son Mark
True car-loving execs within General Motors.
“June 3, 2018, Reuss crashed the Corvette ZR1 pace car that he was driving in the first corner of the first pace lap at the 2018 Detroit Grand Prix, leading to a lengthy delay, and unwanted publicity … Reuss and passenger Mark Sandy were uninjured.
One year later, he got back in the Pace car for the 2019 Race 1 of the Grand Prix in hard rain & led the field without incident. He also debuted the new Cadillac V-series at the race in full camo. In 2020, he was the honorary pace car driver for the Indianapolis 500.
October 2024, Mark drove the 2025 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 to 233 mph, breaking the world record for the fastest production car under $1 million.
His dad Lloyd gave us the Buick T-Type Turbo in 1986-87 at that time fastest accelerating production car in the world.
Automotive executives from the past…
Bernd Pischetsrieder…
That looks like a tad more damage than the Opel suffered 😁
Indeed 😊👍🏻

I Admire Greatly the L'Avvocato

'Maximum Bob'....

I was hoping you would chime in 🤞🏻👍🏻
My favorite is Bob Lutz who was already mentioned
Next to him would be Carlos Ghosn
Most certainly a complex character…
The Wikipedia article says he spoke 4 languages well and a smattering of others (but a translator is a useful ally at all times)
How very cool 👌🏻🙌🏻
