Hmmmm... Let me take a wild guess. Gee, I have a strange vision of a wicked looking Black C6. I wonder who that might be???

This is me in my other ride, a 2005 Mini Cooper S, while running on a Go-Kart track in New Castle on Sunday. What a blast running at speeds up to 70 mph on a very tight and twisty track intended for go-karts.

Yeah, I saw that. Not sure what has been done to the C6, but methinks more than he's saying.

So you're saying all that car has is CAI, headers and a tune? Dam, the Lambo is a dog.....for an "exotic".

Well the Diablo is faster than the Gallardo. I've lost not "so badly" (lol) to a 600hp Turbo Porsche. So maybe it's not that the Lambo is a "Dog", but that the Corvette may be a Factory Freak with some good parts, tune, and a Great Driver!

My father was there with his Mini cooper, I wasn't able to go. I think he just drove Dreyer's cars and not his own.

I drove the dealer's new cars all day except the one run where I took my own car out. What a blast to run the daylights out of someone elses car on a track. I had the tires on them buggers squealing like mad almost all the way around the track!
