DISAPPOINTED JOHNNY however to here that you won't be showing up at the AUTOBAHN this SATURDAY for a couple hours. I say you try to get away for a few hours as IT WOULD probably be very THERAPUTICAL FOR YOU to take you pewter baby for a few fast laps around the TRACK!!!

I'm glad I'll have a video camera mounted on my HardBar... boy it sure would be something to see TWO new C6 Z06's on Sat.

I doubt I can keep up with all the HP that will be on the track, I'll be sure to point you guys by if you need to pass.

Yes he has, I was asking him direct to his face at City Club on Sunday and he was still stealth about it. I do know if he goes it won't be to watch. That's about all he said about it.
