Well I am going to the Detroit Grand Prix today and tomorrow. I plan to take some pics and will share some when I get a chance to upload them. It is on Belle Isle which is on the Detroit River, mins from the Ren Cen. I am sitting with a bunch of Chrysler people, but even they admitted the Vette was the sweetest sounding car on the track today. [http://detroitgp.com/](http://detroitgp.com/) ---

The announcer had to apologize for her bad language and politically incorrect word usage after she hit someone and stalled. Then later when she was about to get black flagged there was a great exchange of F bombs. I hate her. ![http://ronoversiii.com/detroit_gp/indy/danica.JPG](http://ronoversiii.com/detroit_gp/indy/danica.JPG) Rookie winner, Justin Wilson ![http://ronoversiii.com/detroit_gp/indy/winner.JPG](http://ronoversiii.com/detroit_gp/indy/winner.JPG)
