Exactly, since it only has fewer than 50 miles on the odo.
Give me some hundreds more miles of run-in and I'll meet you at Mid-Ohio for something more interesting

After enlarging it it says thank you for your participation. So its a participation trophy which probably costs less than the entry fee.

Nice try, but you obviously can't read it. After your statement, I picked up the actual object to read it myself. Hahaha.

The "Best in Class" blue ribbon that accompanied it points out it wasn't a "participation" trophy.

But, you're quite correct to point out that the organizers' cost to provide the trophy is minuscule compared to the charitable donations provided by those who graced the field.

Way to go.

I have a November build and asked about Euro delivery so that I can go hit some lifetime tracks in Europe. Porsche came back with a November delivery in Europe. Would this date make it difficult to do track days, for example at spa and nurburgring? Any guidance anyone can provide is appreciated.

Keep in mind that your car may be delivered with winter tires (rentals from PAG) during that time frame; its the law

Last tourist driving day on Nürburgring is 18th of November.
Autumn at the Ring can be just amazing.
