Yeah, I saw it a couple weeks ago in a strip mall parking lot in West
Bloomfield, Michigan, on July 4. Curious, I dropped old friend Steven Volpp a
note and learned he's moved from Meridian to Ludington, Michigan (his wife's
hometown), and PRO is still an ongoing concern. They've got a gig with
Hatchette Filipacchi magazines to do a Car and Driver/Road & Track "test drive"
tour with some collection of sports sedans (http://www.rideanddrive.net), which
is what the old rig is supporting (it was on its way to Tampa when I saw it).
They're also sanctioning the Formula BMW championship road racing series
(http://bmw-motorsport.com/04-303ADAE0BBD2049F7C2E4392B227686D/ms/en/4_serien/42_fbmw/429_usa/index.html).
Steven said PRO would be announcing something new in the autocross arena Real
Soon Now.
