After seeing the survival of the occupant area, I'll gladly take my "slow" Ferrari over any other similar (open roof) car for safety. Got a few emails offline, the pix still live at http://www.grossfamily.net/deadmondial.htm - JMG |

So anyway, i was talking to this guy and he said his Supra was better and faster than a Ferrari... Seriously though, great site. i still find the time to check in daily in between classes or when i have no desire to do homework. |

Gents - I look at the quantity of postings you all have and it's clear that all of you have been long time enthusiasts. I am new to the passion (at least the ownership part) and have scoured for articles, books, etc. to further my knowledge. Then I found Ferrarichat. I have gleaned more information from this site than all other sources combined. Rob - a personal thanks for all you efforts and congrats on the anniversary. |

Information on the internet. We all contribute and learn. Thanks Rob for creating this forum. As for the story with the MOndial T, uhg I remember that pretty well. Ouch. Glad everything is okay and your murder trial is over for killing your wife's friend. I agree with the judge. When you kill the person that trashed your Ferrari you can plead it is justifiable homocide by reason of temporary insanity!  |

Here here, I second what JMG, Peter, Bret and Magoo said. I still think this site is fantastic. I use it all the time, and get very useful information. I love Ferrari chat, thanks again Rob! Not only that, but this site has some wonderful people involved! |

I agree totally. It has been such a large part of my Ferrari ownership experience. Now that I honestly think about it I couldn't have done it nor would have it been the same without all of us. When I first got my car I wasn't sure where to turn on repairing it or just standard maintenance. From day one of my Ferrari ownership I was on ExpensiveCar.com later Ferrari Chat asking questions about my new purchase. Thanks Again for making a great site for us Rob. |

Rob, I totally agree with you. If it wasn't for these guys with the knowledge and hands on experience the F.C. would not have the wealth of knowledge it has today. These guys are instrumental in making F.C. the site that it is . |

There is no doubt about it. This site has a wealth of information re: Ferrari. When you think about it this has been acquired in a short period of time. There isn't much lacking in the Tech. advice and the archives to a person who is trying to find the answer to a problem with his car or maybe some of it's history. All in all it is very informative of just about any facet of the Ferrari automobile. A lot of credit goes to those guys who have been with the site for years, worked on their own cars and also the guys who are professionals by trade. These guys built this wealth of information. To those guys I take my hat off for their contributions and making this site what it is. |

Fchat has proven to be the best online. Owning a Ferrari would be somewhat different if you weren't in contact with everyone literally everyday. During the summer I see enough Fcars to make you sick (if that's possible), during the school year I'd go insane though without somewhere to be in contact with Fcars and owners. |

Remember, Ferrarichat is celebrating a birthday soon. I think it went online in the middle of Nov. 2000. |

Last year on this very day, I was mourning the loss of my 92 T Cab but happy that my wife survived. The folks here helped me avoid meltdown (lucky for the driver) and helped me get back on the horse or Cavallino if you will. Just thinking about how nice it was to have the support of the Forum and wanted to thank everyone again. Sometimes we forget just how good things can be here at FChat |
