    With guests like Seinfeld, Andretti, Rahal, etc. attending, it should be a good time...Unfortunately, it's an invite only type event.

    Anyone from here attending?

    Any chance we'll see the P4/5 circling the track this summer? That car is just incredible...

    The track is about 5 minutes away from my house up there...Haven't been going up there too much the past couple of years. The track is definitely motivation to start making the trip up there more often. As an added bonus, the track is off of Rte. 42 - which is a nice road, in and of itself, which you can take from Monticello to Hawk's Nest (mountainside twisties)...

    Great Event....Some very interesting people to talk with....Bob Varsha is a real nice guy. Before the presentations they had Rahal, and Seinfeld up in this private area while my brother was on one of the simulators. Not to often do you get to talk with them, and have them critique your driving skills. Real nice guy's. If the club matches the event it will be a fantastic place.

    What a great event; Jim, your words mirror my sentiments. It was great seeing you - and you, too, Adam! So many familiar faces, and I met many interesting people as well. GDC's new Maserati was parked out front, too - it's stunning. I'm sure others will post pictures, but here's one I took.

    Very nice event, as expected I guess based on the amount of money that has been invested and the quality of the product that is apparently being offered.

    What is the story with the Veyron? Miller Motorcars has trotted that out for the past couple of years at various venues. Hasn't it been sold to someone yet? Did Miller buy it for marketing purposes?

    The Bugatti Veyron 16.4 you see at various auto events is a corporate show car owned by Bugatti. Miller MotorCars has so far seen 3 different show cars and the one used most is this car that you saw in Ciprian's in the Northeastern region. It is not for sale and has around 25,000 miles on it. It is for test drives for all of the 6+ Bugatti dealerships around the country. Miller MotorCars recently saw a White with Black on Tan interior show car in the showroom for around a month. The car is now on its way to the west coast. I heard Seinfeld was great and did his 15 minutes of stand up comedy. My old boss Bradford Rand of Rand Luxury was the organizer of this launch event and did a fantastic job! I wish I was able to go but I am flying home from AZ soon
