GM Immersion Day
On Saturday 21st April, the GM team was invited to attend a GM Immersion day at Gerotek testing station. It was a wonderful experience with the whole team having the opportunity to test drive all the products including Opel, Chevrolet, Hummer, Isuzu, SAAB and Cadillac. The day started on the 4x4 track, followed by a really cool speed module around the oval and then lots of slipping and sliding around the skid pan. The whole event ended with a wonderful lunch and prize giving and our very own Tracy Doye won the ladies prize for the fasted time around the skid pan (are we surprised?) and our new dude on the block – Archie – won the men’s fastest time. Brad from UM won the fastest men’s time in his group on the skid pan as well. Our very own Martin Hummel was brave enough to attempt the 4x4 track and is now officially entrenched in the rugged life in Africa. Special thanks to all those team members who participated – a great time was had by all.
GM Factory Tour
On Thursday 19th April, the GM team flew down to PE to attend a factory tour. What an amazing experience – it’s difficult to describe the experience of entering a building filled with sheet metal and walking out 2 hours later with a perfectly made car driving off to the wheel alignment bay. It certainly gave us all a whole new perspective on the process of car manufacturing. In true McCann fashion, we went straight out to lunch on the beachfront immediately afterwards and enjoyed a lovely meal with loads of alcohol (thanks to Wim). Needless to say, we travelled home exhausted from a fantastic day away.
