Default First event in the GS, I think I'm in love...

Did my first event in the car at NCM this weekend and wow, what a car. This was my first time at NCM (great track) and really my first time getting any real seat time in the car (I just purchased it in December). My most recent track experience was in my somewhat heavily modified E46 M3 so I didn't really know what to expect with a stock, bigger power car. The GS did nothing but impress though, very neutral, great brakes and I was super impressed with the dampening. I'm really stoked to get to my home track Mid Ohio next month.

Anyways, few track photog pics and a GoPro grab for ya.

The Grand Sports are probably my favorite Corvette of all for doing everything just right. We have a 2012 GS Centennial with Performance Package, Chrome Package, and Kooks headers and midpipe. I love driving the car as it is the epitome of a Grand Touring car. Great looks, great driver on the street, and great lapper on the track.
