That was Vern driving for the owner.
FYI #98 is 5R002 the "flying" GT350 if you didn't already know.
Yes, the elusive 5R002 I've been wanting to see in the metal for several years now. I did not recognize Vern though. My first thought seeing the driver was that it looked promising to see younger individuals at such an event.
Great videos
Keepem coming!
Thanks for posting

Not my vids though I thought of driving over on Thursday evening to take my own videos since the place is like 15 miles from my house, but I had no credentials and no doubt would have been forcibly ejected. I was thrown out of a Rolls Royce convention in Oakbrook, IL once. Why would this be any different.
Absolutely gutted that I flew into Chicago on Sunday evening not knowing this event was on. Opportunities to see a real R are severely limited for anyone let alone someone living in Australia!!

The show ended at 17:00 (5pm) on Sunday so depending on what time in the evening you arrived, it would not have been viable (though the airport is probably around 3 or 4 miles from the convention center).
