What the hell!?!?

Ok, not as bad as it sounds, it's the August cover shot shrunk down of the ZR1 we were testing at Englishtown, with the heading "is government intrusion killing the Corvette hobby".

That makes this the third time they put me on the cover driving a Vette, but this was not how I envisioned it.

Well, that wasnt the point, but thanks. I just got a laugh when I saw it from the corner of my eye, and said "what the hell did I do now" until I read it.
