Damn this sled is fun!

A long term email friend (Corvetteforum) came over to Germany and I promised him an autobahn drive in my Corvette C6. We did some HS runs over A81 - topping 150 mph when the traffic would allow. We drove the Black Forrest (he was driving) and dispite the excellent design he skillfully squealed the tires a couple of times.

When we returned back to my home I offered him a ride in my C4S to see what the "other side" was like. I drove him around some of the well engineered roads that I'm familiar with - he looked over at the speedo a couple of times and was shocked. His closing comment was - I can see why you drive this more...
