Great pics and, it appears, a great time !!

BTW, in one of your pics I saw a MY Z06 in the background. Presumably European spec as it had the small side marker light on the fender. I thought Z06s were not imported to Europe because of noise regulations?

Some folks have imported them via the gray channel (not via the dealer) and got them licensed anyway. Ain't that just great!!!
