Just wait ....... Dexos II is also cool.

Hey did you know a Sky Redline with the GMPP calibration will run with a Camaro SS at least through 2nd gear?

Did I mention we drove Woodward tonight? Tons of GM iron old and new tonight. I'll post some pics later but iPhone didn't do very good.

Tons and tons of people on the side of the road watching the cruise. Niiiiiiice!!!

I should hope so...the calibration gives you what...300 hp? It's a light little roadster!

I can't wait to go to my first dream cruise...I can only imagine what it's like!

Is that right?! How can that work? For example...who gets to make decisions on, say, the Vette -- the VP of PCaM, or the Chevy VP?
