Default Anybody going to the NCM/HOD HPDE?

Full course at the Autobahn in Joliet, IL Monday 10/4. Should be a great time. Info at National Corvette Museum and Hooked on Driving websites (still spots left!)

A crisp fall day, full track at the Autobahn, the smell of brake dust and burning rubber... it's a no-brainer! See you and the Beast in a week.
