is that the new show called "supercars exposed" on the speed channel? i've seen a couple of episodes and its fun to watch. on the first episode they compared a 997tt, ferrari f430 and elise exige. i recorded it on my dvr and watch it every once in a while.

alex...i thought you sold your cgt. i read your post on the yellowing carbon and knew you were bumed out with porsche not stepping up to the plate and fixing the issue. hope everything turned out good for you. will keep my eye open for the re-run episode on sunday..

Thanks buddy....Porsche came to the table...so I am keeping her for now =)
I am doing several other Speed Channel shows with both my 996TT and CGT. I am looking forward in setting a new one mile record with my 996TT at the end of this month. This run will be covered by both Speed Channel and Streetfire.net.

Congrats on the Speed show and keeping the CGT!!! I think you looked pretty comfy in that Boxter ha ha ha Is your decision to keep the CGT going to stop the Veyron from coming??? And when are we going to see this Camaro??
VRAlexander, you are the man!!! I hope I catch a glimpse of you cruising around when I'm racing karts in Vegas next week!

Thanks for your kind words
My CGT decision has nothing to do with the Veyron purchase, but the CCXr does... I want to take another look at that car before pulling the trigger on one of the two....

Camaro?? What 1969 RS/SS Camaro?? What 3000hp engine?? Have no clue what you are talking about////////







LAT-
Yes, I am going to take a title shot at Tommy's run...although Tommy will be there with two Supras, one of which I sponsored the special 250mph sticky sticky (I dont want to see him wait until fourth gear to go WOT) slicks on.... It will be a fun time for all... Eddie and the RPM crew will be pitting with us as well... I called Todd at EVOMS several times, but no return call...hopefully everything is OK with him...I want to see our whole gang under one tent with Streetfire and Speed Channel ! Check out www.TexasMile.com in the week to come, the new site will be up... If anyone is planning on coming down from Rennlist, let me know so I can put you on the VIP list for saturday nights party....
