Patrick George is a writer for Jalopnik who recently had a pretty bad time in a Camaro. Not any Camaro, the brand new 2016 Camaro. GM invited him and other journalists out to the Belle Island track in Detroit to see their new Camaro and each got to drive a mule (a version of the car with a weird white and black camo paint cover) for a press event. While following one car behind the lead Patrick took the wrong line going into a turn and wound up hitting the wall. GM wasn't all that fond of Jalopnik since they leaked their C7 Corvette in the first place so they didn't take too kindly to Patrick for the wreck and they requested he leave the facility.

Sorry Patrick, that's a legitimate bummer!
