Thumbs up AMG Challenge at Pocono

hey everyone,

i just received an email from AMG about AMG day at Pocono Raceway on May 9th.
i registered for the day and i was wondering if anyone on this board is going?
the cost are $850.00
my guess is that they will teach me how to be a better driver.
one thing i'm definately looking forward to is driving the new supercharged models around the track at light speed!!!
if anyone else is going put up a post.

went to one last year in summit point w va. great fun, you can drive amg models and get driven by race car drivers at top speed. sl 55 only for display. don't know what models other than c, slk, e55, s55, cl55 will be available.

All of the above
Wow, I didn't know anything about the AMG day. I geuss you have to own one to get an invite. I was at the track last summer for the intro of the new Es and CLKs, drove them as well as an SL500 and a C32. Very Fun! Maybe I'll play "hookey" from work and come up to watch. Have fun guys.

you do not drive your own car. you drive the newest amg models. they have skid pad driving, autocross, ride w/ pro drivers, and drive w/ prodrivers. if you wreck it is not your problem. the only problem is the slow mf in front of you.
