The wheels ALWAYS require a little more time! The first day I owned my car I got caught in a rainstorm coming over Tennessee Pass in Colorado. Didn't slow me down a bit.

My two experiences in the Ferrari in the rain weren't bad. It drives very well and there are no leaks. As far as cleaning, after it dried I just took a California duster over it and 5 minutes later everthing was cool. The wheels require a little more time. |

Jim, you're probably right.... I HATE washing that thing!!!! Maybe I'll bring my wife's Honda Odyssey... it's gotta be good for 100 hp (or 600 Hamsters). |

Damn, if it rains we won't see Bob! Or maybe we could just all bring our SUV's and put THEM on the dyno? |

Marcus, Where do you live? I live up by the Galleria at Tollway and Beltline. You might just plan on meeting us at Norwoods. I'll be there all day. Most people will be coming and going, but I think we'll all go out for lunch and then probably afterwards for a few beers. I hope it's a good day, but looks like rain. |

I would like to go to Norwood's, but I am supposed to have some company over. If I can get away, I will come by. Sunday, though, I am planning on going to White Rock for the British Car Show if anyone is planning on going to that. |

Marcus, you should come by Norwoods Saturday. We'll be there rain or shine. I think we'll probably go to lunch and maybe some place afterwards. See the Texas section below on the main page for more info. |

I'll take nearly anybody for a ride, any excuse to drive it! Sean, we still need to trade drives, are you going to Norwoods on Saturday if it doesn't rain? I may have to go for a ride w/ Bob and Rob to see what kind of diffs there are among our cars, mine is the only 328 I've ever been in. |

I have always wanted to take a ride in certain cars (F-40,328GTS,360,550 etc..)I have not really had any experience but with a few and it was just up and down a street and wanted to get a real feeling of what you guys experience on a daily basis. I am not sure how you guys feel about that, but I wanted to ask.-I will even pay you for a ride |
