    R Gruppe hits the mainstream automotive media. Not sure if that's good or bad

    Talking I think it's great!

    I love the author's last line in the article after driving Ray's car;

    "... I really need an R Gruppe car of my own."

    That's cool.

    Even tho there are probably 500+ member numbers...the actual active/paying membership at any given time....is probably really close to 300.

    I remember that 300 was the actual goal/limit in the old days....
