Any news from Nurburgring

It's been 2, 3 weeks since Dave Hill mentioned that the Corvette test team wais going to run the C6Z in Germany. What has happened? Has anyone heard anything from grapevine? Dying to find out how the new king did on the most challenging track in the business.

Yeah, I'd like to see that too. The 405HP Z06 could beat most cars on the 'ring. Imagine another 100HP, bigger tires, and better brakes. The list of cars that will beat it will be mighty short. Like maybe 2 or 3...

This is surely the quitest test I have encountered to date. Normally when a manufacturer gets the automobile to this track, there is always some sort of information available to disclose to the general public to give an idea of it's performance capabilities long before a vehicle is ready for sale. This instance is just bizarre especially considering the vehicle is supposedly ready for the market this fall. There is something really about this.
