Yep, I'd say thats right, about the same time as last year. I don't know why it took up so many days.. Last year they were there for only 3 days. Maybe they had more demand.. I'll prob go to that one also, it was only $400.

Yes, only $400. It was 4-5 hours with catered lunch or breakfast depending on your scheduled time. It was called the AMG experience, not the challenge. I also went to one in Indiana about 3 weeks later, it was only $200 I couldn't miss that one. It was a little lame though, the crew that was putting it on would not let you rip *** at all.. It was like a really extended test drive.

The amg experience was awesome, thats the one in the video. The drivers made you keep it below 100-mph, but I went over a few times in the last straight and only 1 warning. Oh, also no esp off allowed.

Wolf pack, which one are you guys going to this year..
