    Believe they have lost the video feed, I watched both skydome feeds before lunch, now neither will come up.

            Me too even more. Their servers must be jammed. We are right on the fiber optic lines here at work and I can't get there today.

                    Am I the only one to notice the large puddle of something under the car, and the trail following it as it moved away?

                    Look on Dan's YouTube link for other videos of the lift of the Blue Devil and the afternoon lift of the 40th Anniversary. Ruby looks badly damaged. It looks like not all four wheels are on the ground at the same time.

                        Looks like the dry sump sprung a leak?

                            Maybe the oil filter was knocked off or out.

                                Re: 2-13-14 Update on NCM sinkhole recovery & new Corvette Plant Manager

                                The 2009 "Blue Devil" and the 1993 40th Anniversary car have been extracted. The Blue Devil sustained minor damage. The Ruby didn't fare quite as well.

                                It looks like the 1962 is next and then the digging begins to recover the rest.

                                The museum added a 2nd webcam (camera14) in the Skydome area but I couldn't get it to work, nor the 1st Skydome camera (camera6) that was fixed shortly after the collapse. Actually none of museums 14 webcams seem to be working for me today.

                                Here are some links for those interested:

                                A crane lifted a 1962 black Corvette from a sinkhole at the National Corvette Museum at a little past 12:30 p.m. Tuesday. The car was lifted by crane from the hole and then lowered slowly onto the ground and then pushed by a group of workers from the Skydome, where the sinkhole collapsed last month, […]
