Every racer likes checking out the competition, right? That's true for everything from a $500 ChampCar to a front-running Formula 1 entry, and the Riley Motorsports Team AMG No. 33 Mercedes-AMG GT3 is no exception. It's headed into town for the Roar Before The Rolex 24, but its first stop will be in our studio for an appearance on …
Still can't believe they're letting us touch this thing.
Will you be speaking to Ben K?

No, it's not for sale....I'm gonna restore it.
We hope? Not sure if his schedule gets him here in time for the show.
Bill Riley will most assuredly be in da house, though.
Do y'all do transcripts of these sessions..........not down with bookface ? 
Nope. But, you can watch it on our YouTube page if you don’t want to go to Facebook.
K Kool I'll be sitting front and center.....Hey is there any possibility of getting Johnny O'Connell to come and chat?
This is going to be epic!!!!
If Ben does show up, tell him ‘Howdy’ and ‘Gig Em’.
Bill and Ben has been longtime supporters of ours. This should be fun.
They're here....

Something about those fenders louvers is just so right on that car.
Looking forward to the ramp truck.
Bolt in roll cage....
Of course the doors come off so easily. I said "oh no, he's going to forget to close the door and hit the garage..."
I've never done that myself, mind you. Nope nope nope.
I am not sure but I am thinking that this may have set a record for viewers from what I saw in Facebook.
Thanks for doing this GRM and JG. Great show. This is now must watch “TV” at my house.
That was fun. Thanks, everyone, for joining us tonight. (I'm the one moderating the Facebook comments.) Bill Riley is a prince to deal with.
We'll see everyone at the Roar tomorrow.
Past shows, including tonight's, can be watched on our YouTube channel, and here's the YouTube feed for those who'd rather watch it there:
