isn't your car a may/05 build? any chance you get to see it while you're there?

those look to be the same two "beater" CGTs they used in my visit well over a year ago could you ask them if they use the street pads or the track ones? and about how many miles/laps do they get out of the fronts? tia

how many miles were on the CGTs?

nope. guess they haven't started it. now they can avg produce 3 GTs per day. mine should be built on May 30th. today was NO.799's birthday and 3 number below to follow. i did see a finished CARRERA WHITE CGT. no US car cuz it didn't have the ugly side marker. i was right about the white!

that was a cool picture of the model CGT assembly line!!! we didn't get around to seeing the museum , but it was because we spent so much time on the track

the cars aren't produced in sequence (witness mike getting #911 upon his request). it's a shame you didn't get the white you wanted
