Steven, I'm a huge SWC fan. Saw them in Dallas for two years and I participate in the SCCA Pro Racing board too. It's the best racing out there right now. Everything is close machinery and talent wise. I'm in my second year of club racing and my goal is to do at least a year of pro racing in the future. Good luck, I'll be cheering you on.

Hi Jeff,
Yeah...the Jolly with a NO2 system would keep them on their toes. At least the Jolly alredy has a 'roll cage' (the chromed tubing on the sides and for bumpers).

Hi, Steve:

Why not enter the Fiat Multipla or the Jolly and catch them with the "element of surprise"? I have a Multipla, too! I'm in your register. Welcome to the "Chat".

Hi guys, It's not a Ferrari but hey, I'm racing...

I'm a long-time member/track instructor of the Forida Region. I own a blue 246GT Dino and have met many of you at the Cavallino Classic and at FCA regional events over the years.

I've entered a professional race series for 2003. It's called the World Speed Challenge - seen on the SPEED Channel. Our first race is at Sebring, on the days before the 12 Hour race. It'll be televised. I'm driving #95 (the same number as my other race cars - Alfa Romeos), a white Subaru. We'll have the only all-wheel-drive cars in the race, a huge advantage if it rains and a small disadvantage (the added weight) offset by better traction if it doesn't rain. This will be our first race in this series dominated by Honda and BMW and for me with this team from Orlando.

I hope to see those of you that attend Sebring each year. I'll be in the 'ZOO' by Saturday morning...hopefully celebrating.

Steve Piantieri
