Doody, I bet that it was a lot of fun. Lots of local organizations have events there, and the food's good.
Jim, the Marlborough I was referring to is on 495 north of the Mass Pike. The restaurant was formerly the Royal Mandarin on Concord Rd. |

this was an impromptu event organized by the head of the FCA New England region. BBQ brunch in a private back room with a big TV with a tape of the Hungarian GP running.
i wasn't able to make it on short notice, but wish i could have!

Hello-
By way of introduction, let me first say that I have enjoyed "lurking" on this forum for several months. I don't own a Ferrari, but am fascinated by the marque and the mystique that goes with any car bearing Enzo's surname.
That being said, I happened to drive by Firefly's barbecue in Marlborough, MA this afternoon (Sunday the 18th) and saw a red Testa Rossa in the parking lot. Then a Titanium 360- then a red F355- holy cow, something like 9 Ferraris all lined up in an otherwise empty lot! It was enough to pull me in to take a look. (If any of you happened to be watching your cars, mine was the gold Grand Cherokee with the yellow kayak on top- I was returning from a camping trip). I was wondering if any Ferrari Chat members were part of this gathering. If so, please allow me to say that those were without exception some gorgeous automobiles! I am partial to the 355 GTS (the red/tan one was a real beauty), but also got a kick out of the red Testa Rossa with the Harvard window sticker- a compelling advertisement for higher education! There was an antique right hand drive model there as well that I didn't recognize- any idea what that was?
Anyway, best regards to you guys and a beautiful stable of cars. Hope the service at Firefly's was a bit faster than what we "locals" are accustomed to. On the other hand, 9 sets of Ferrari keys on the table may have gotten the waitstaff moving a bit quicker...
Cheers-
Giovanni
