The Diablo in these pics looks identical to one that a fellow owns here in Orange Park, FL. I've seen him and his wife driving around in it several times in the last year or two. It's the same model, color, etc. I have no idea who he is, but do know where he lives. At any rate, the car is absolutely stunning! | ||

Tom, I posted those pictures before. Howie, I took them last year the the Bacchus Auto Show at the Mosque in Pembroke Pines. A local fund raiser for the mosque. Allan, although George is frequetly at Moroso to lurk around I do not think it is him beating on a 360 Challenge unless the Challenge was on a cool down lap. Moroso is a track with lots of corners that the Lambo can typically not handle that well by an unexpoerienced track driver. George has some experience on the track but will not have enough to beat the 360 which would be only on the same track on Italia Fest. So that was last year Feb and the only 360 Ch was the one of Ray Maranges and he certainly is a great driver with TONS of track experience. Ray BTW has 2 Diablos. A blue and a yellow Race Diablo as well as the 360 Challenge. Unfortunately he smoked his yellow Diablo with engine fire in homestead last Oct.  Since then he has the nick name: Calamari Fritti at our local gatherings: The Squideria Calamari He was so cool about it that he came back on the tow truck and jumped right back into his 360 and spun off. The Diablo is being re-built right now. Should be done for Italiafest from what I hear. Anyhow, William can tell you some Lambo tales. He is faster than the Diablos in his heavy 512TR. | ||

I think the blue roadster belongs to a guy named Yalli. Martin, isnt there an Italian cars event coming the first week in February? It will be a track event at Moroso and then a show in Delray beach. | ||

Martin, If that car was purchased from Prestige, the previous owner may have been Rod Stewart. At which event were those photos taken? | ||

I think the guy George with the yellow Roadster is the guy i have video of beating up on a 360 Challange car at Moroso Motorsports park. The car has a stripe across the side and says 530hp. Your right Ernesto, that is much more fun. Especially compared to driving a gayass Poopra, or Ferrari modeled after an Nsx. | ||

Sorry guys: Here is the pictures. Howie, no this is not the yellow one. The yellow roadster with the stripe on the side is George. He lives in Aventura. Nice guy.   | ||

Do all the magazines come with the car, so that the owner can cite and quote the articles in chat rooms instead of racing for real in a real track? Hiding behind F1, LeMans, MilleMiglia, and SportsCar victories is much more fun than hiding behind magazine articles and NOS. LOL Ernesto | ||

One of you F-car drivers should buy it. Then you could see what a Real car felt like! Not one you have to make excuses for and bing up F1 victories.lol | ||

On a side note. If a person with a garage full of Fcars is called a stable then what would you call it if it was full of lambos | ||
