That is pretty cool. If you go to maps.google.com and type in milford, mi then click the button on the right that says satellite it will bring up the satellite pics. Drage the screen just to the left and you can see the proving grounds. What looks really cool to me is they have an awesome offroad area that looks really fun. Skidpad looks fun too. Aw heck..I want to be one of the test guys!

With Al Bundy in your avatar, you will probably be put to work testing the Aveo or mini-vans.

Nice story about Milford. How many loops did she make with the blue Corvette? It looks like they add a few extra for effect...

The C6 held a pretty straight line while spinning round and round.

GM came to Purdue and recruited one of the guys I was going to school with (mechanical engineering) for that job! He loved it but hated living in detroit.
