Great pictures. Our wives and girlfriends seldom joined us as the gatherings were mostly in the early morning when the ladies were still having dreams! | ||

Nicholas, thank you for the compliment on the Mondial. I've heard nothing but nice comments from everyone who has seen it. It drives sweet too. All the cars got up to about 120mph at one point yesterday. Here is a link with a picture of the wheels and a couple other pictures of the car. The wheels are HRE's, model 547's or 547R's, I'm not sure which. They are 17" so I think 547 but with the silver logo of the 547R. The rear tires are 275 width and the fronts 225. http://www.ferrarichat.com/discus/messages/18/184387.html?1040827497 | ||
