<VV> Interesting GM Move!

[Mel Francis]

Well Matt,

I wouldn't want to overstep or abuse GM's claimed rights to the Super Sport 
designation.

In any event, I think Bruce Meyers would be a lot easier to deal with, than 
GM, if we ever got to discussing the SR model designation with him.

We have no real need to call this version an SS. If we do build a mid-engine 
version, I wasn't planning on calling it a GT, even though GM could never 
trademark that one...
