| Honestly, I think Riley needs to pull their collective heads out of their collective asses. It's time to "MAN UP" and go real sports car racing with a REAL effort. This nonsense with the DP's is a joke.
Sorry... it needed to be said.

JT | Yep, that and the supposed 2010 Camaro they're building for the KONI Challenge, to run next year. A year before it's on the streets.

I don't understand GM. All the buzz and traction they could have gained from that car... I think the diecast and toy manufactures have made more money of the "new" Camaro than GM EVER will. My kid's had an RC Camaro for more than two years... in fact, I'm sure it's trashed already.

JT | Also, starring in a new TV series next month. GM's thinking... "Build it, and they will come." (?) 
The "retro" Mustang's been out sooooooooo long, (not to mention the 40 or so versions of it), the Challenger is on the streets. GM, once again, seems a bit late to the party.
Yeah, JT, I too, think GM's missed a lot being so slow.

My Own Worst Enemy, with Christian Slater in what appears to be a split persona (opposing & compartmentalized) Spy - thriller.

| Lou is working on getting the car to Laguna, as well as running in the Petit. A lot will depend on how the car weathers the Petit, to enable it to be on the grid at Laguna. Everything crossed!
