AMG Driving Academy opens in US
I'm just getting back from the AMG Driving Academy at Lime Rock and I had a blast. First class in everything they did from Tommy Kendall the celebrity driver to the dinner the day before to all of the events the day of. We did slaloms, drag strip racing, wet and dry handling, autocross and some lead and follow. Some pics attached.

The red one may have been a black label. There were a few of them. They will hold this at Laguna Seca in Calf and Palm Beach down in Florida. Here's some more pics. There were 40 drivers + 4 instructors.
