It's Steve Wesoloski. Really nice guy to talk to. He lost his job because of the cancellation of the Cadillac and Pontiac race programs. Unfortunately, that left him just in charge of Corvette Racing and they could now just report directly to the higher-ups.

The big question for Corvette Racing is if GM files bankruptcy, will they be allowed to continue with the program?

That will be interesting to watch. I don't see how they could, but I hope so.

More importantly about the bankruptcy, if GM does goes through with it, does that mean we lose our $17 biliion dollar loan to them?

That's a totally different subject, if we should have ever loaned out the money in the first place. I am just wondering if we lose the $17 billion if they go bankrupt.
