JDB - Almost ALL AMG's are sold in North America.... With that being said, my first suggestion would be to start a factory racing campaign in either ALMS or Grand Am.

While a good number of AMG's are sold in the US, I heard at the NY auto show that it is more like 40%. Certainly not almost all.

While I would love to see AMG run in ALMS or Grand Am, I think the money they would need to spend to come out of the gate with a near winning team would make the business case a difficult one.

I would be happy to see them just run the Nurburgring 24 race as a start.

Re: AMG Sales

There certainly is an enthusiastic group of owners who regularly participate in the European AMG Driving Academy Events. I think the worldwide distribution of these cars is much more ubiquitous than just in the U.S.

Surely, besides Europe, a boatload or two must wind up in the Middle East and Asia, now and then.
