Awesome, hopefully they keep it heavy/streetable to show off how great these cars are straight from the showroom floor. I'm sure Manthey will be there with one of their beasts to prove that the mark is still good enough for outright honors as well.

A heavy GTR will love brakes and tires on the ring 
that being said, the Steve Millen GTR killed me in Targa Newfoundland for 5 days of hard abuse and racing. Drove the car to and from the event too.
although, i did drive my car further distance to get to the race and i had no support crew.

I say you did a better job because you did drive it through Long Beach California before the event. Stillen was located in Long Beach years ago before moving, if my memory serves me right!(?)

I think that this is awesome news, I can not wait to find out who will be driving with him.
Bergmeister, and Long? Now that would make it really fun.....
