Default What a day! Dragon drivin' and Audi R8!

I'll have pics posted soon...but can you fuggin' believe it?? We get a complete, CLEAN run on the Dragon...absolutely NO traffic...we (Ron, sftechguy and I) get to the gravel lot and about 5 minutes later...my face literally turns to this...



....then...



An Audi R8 had graced the Dragon...we quickly pulled behind it and when the friendly driver pulled off to let us by...we weren't fooled...we ALSO stopped...then this happened...





Dayum!! An Audi R8...on the Dragon?? WTH?? The two driving were with Automobile Magazine and the R8 was a manufacture car with Michigan plates... Again, I'll post pics later...but WOW!! I got to sit in it and dayum...nice!!

Well...obviously you can tell I'm still psyched about it...wow!
