Default Corvette World Tribute 2012

I had posted this in Great Lakes but wanted to give you guy a heads up as well. RTTN 1 said that he has a friend on Road America's board of directors and Chevy was so pleased with how the 2011 event turned out that they are doing it again.

I'll be there all weekend with a updated version of the lens i had last year so if you are planning on going, let me know and ill look for your car.

That was the most fun I've had with my Vette in a long time. 4 consecutive track days, running with vintage Corvette race cars, all on the greatest road course in the U.S. Can't wait for 2012.

Did you ever find out what the issue was?

Rear diff. Had it rebuilt and took it to RA two weeks later and it still did the same thing. Took it apart again and could'nt find anything wrong. Took it to Autobahn for testing and everything felt great. One of those evil car gremlins. Hopefully it is fine in the spring.
