@Uwe,
....to buy in spring time?
No, I think its cheaper at the end of the year and I would like to have a big inspection at R.F garage which needs a few weeks and a bit cash;-(

@Trevi
what a pleasure to meet you, Simon and Andrea.
Now a know the meaning of FUNKY Ferrari Owners Swiss!
Funky: Yes, you are funky & funny!!!!!!!!!!
Ferrari: Yes, awesome Ferrari (colour and inside such a awesome condition)
Owners: Yes, proud & fast!
Swiss: Yes, real "Eidgenossen"

Hope to CU next week on our Ferrari short vacation tour with the FCD in Montafon, Ausria. We will star on Thursday 18/09 and stay there till Sunday 21/09.

Great to hear that you gents are all well back home!!!!!

What a day!!!!!

What a pleasure to meet you all for such a great weekend. Thanks to everybody!

We have been at home at 21:00 p.m. Yes, we drove the Corso which started at least at 18:00 p.m.
But it wasn`t a corso;-) We drove so f*** fast around the track with 30 other F.-drivers amazing.
I swore you, it was a real race....and not a corso!

I`m just working on the pics and will post them with a smal story during today.
I`m going to split them in several parts, so please wait a few hours.

Trevi,

thats fine and you have time enough to take a shower and prepare yourself for the dinner.
My wife and I will pick you up guys in the Adler-Hotel lobby around 19:20. Heiko is in the same Hotel with the tyre guys. They will be back from the Hockenheim Ring right in time for dinner.

Hello gents,

I would like to wake up everybody who has not yet signed in for the Ferrari Drive to the Nürburgring.
Here is a pic from the Racing Days last year we have been, same place, over 400 Ferraris! And I`m sure "The Michael Schumacher Day" this event can beat it!

Mark,
Gleichmäßigkeitsprüfung=Uniformity Examination
mhmmm....sounds like a university professor.
Wrong!!!
Here is the correct German/English
Gleich - Equal
Mäßig - Moderate
Keit - Culty
Prüfung - Tryout
So: Equalmoderatecultytryout
English is such any easy languageUpload

Hello Uwe!!

Long time no see - how is your new MB and what's up with your red car? Back at RF??

I had to have minor repairs done to my car when I got to the UK as a high tension cable to the distributor (around the back of the engine) had slipped down onto the exhaust and melted through. So, I was down to 7 cylinders again!! The story of my life!!

Anyway, that's done and the car also has new headlight lenses (for the UK) and a one year TUV/MOT certificate. She is now safely in storage (at a secret location) until I physically relocate at the end of December.

Work?? I am busy handing over to my successor - only three weeks to go!!

Yo Wolfgang!

October sounds tempting, but I would have to come along on my motorcycle or be a passenger as my car is currently in storage on the island until I move.

I will check out my agenda tonight speak to you about logistics (and visas).

Later, MARK

Hi Ton - thanks!!

I know you went through a stressful patch recently. It's good to see that you've come through OK!! Hey...you still need to let me know what I owe you for the gas struts!! They are installed and working just fine. Actually, it's now difficult to close the engine lid and I really have to bash it to get the right side latch to take hold.

Let me know.

Dear All,

yesterday I've talked to Michael Mettlach (F 348 GTB).
He will join us, too and I pick him up at the Fuel Station Lorsch. We will both arrive in Hockenheim at 7:30.
It's absolutly amazing and I'm glad to see you all in Hockenheim.

Hi Sebastian,

anyway, both cars are more than welcome!
Or think about a trailer hitch for the Maserati?
So you would be well prepared for every weather.
