Guys I just had an MTV crew at my house doing an interview of SANTA , 30 plus people wardrobe, grips art dept Makeup , sound guys, gunning with three cameras doing various scenes. From 8:30 A M to 2:30 PM. So yes I am an actor of sorts and that gig makes me SAG/Aftra so I get to vote on the Academy Awards. Did Glee on Wednesday, Kate Hudson is HOT ! shared a golf cart ride with her to set. Doing NCIS N Y on Monday in San Pedro. It is pretty weird at times but I am having fun

Wow, glad this had a happy & quick ending. Probably the first time I can remember a 928 was stranded at Road America and none of the usual member of the Wisconsin crew were around.

On that note, we need to get you in the fold with the GLOC (Great Lakes Owners Club).

15 minutes of me getting ready to call AAA and swearing at the car and wishing I still had my 951... It started right up.
So big thanks... Hey talking about MTV we just did a filming with them for there show called Made its on the topic of being the assistant for David Hasselhoff... Who's a celebrity guest host for my company 15Minutesnow.com

I'm assuming you ran into them before the car wouldn't start since Jean-Louis has a way with 928's. He would have given it a stern look, said something very evil sounding in French, and it would have started right up.

We are supercharging one of his 928's in a GTG in September, I think. Need to reconfirm those dates.

Then you have his wife Agnes, who is an incredible driver. She has fun scaring the ba-jesus out of people taking them for rides around Road America - at speed - during DE's that allow passengers (non PCA).

I just did a small role in a Christmas Movie "Twister Christmas" airs on ION TV in December. Short scene with two pretty young ladies sitting on my knees, I play Santa . Did get some dialogue in that one.
