John Heinricy retiring

Read on Left Lane News today that after 40 years with GM, John Heinricy is retiring. I would just like to say that he was a great engineer, driver, and I hope the recent changes he implemented in the GM Performance division will continue with track worthy record setting cars. He will be missed around there I'm sure.

Yes, I just read this as well today. He really did an astounding job at GM. His most recent accomplishment would probably be setting the fastest production sedan record on the 'ring in the CTS-V which was an automatic. He will definitely be missed.
