    Ok, I did one of these awhile ago but for Decatur & learned there were a lot more than I thought there. So now I would like to see what all exotics are in Springfield, I know of a decent amount now, but I would like to hear what people around here have to say. Whether it is yours or a friends or you have just seen it, just post it please. Thanks!

    I heard there are 2 Bentley Continental GTs, I know the guy with the scud, Mike has the Mosler & MP4-12C, I heard there are 7 ford GTs in springfield, heard of the gallardo, a 360 challenge, I think a 360 spider, saw a F430 spider on the interstate. That is a lot for the area I think, wasn't sure what else was around here. Thanks

    I wish I could see these cars. I have also seen a black Aston Martin. I am really hoping for no rain & a big turnout Saturday! I hope to see everyone & their cars there!

    Unlikely, many people are out of town. We are likely changing over to the 12th to get more people together.

    I would contact Isringhausen and put together an event with them. I'm sure they know all the exotics within 150 mile radius.

    Well if it means getting more cars there, I am looking forward to it. Can we get conformation for either this Saturday or next that way people know. I am going to try to get some people there. If you could find out the details & when exactly that would be great.

    That is a good idea, Isringhausen should just do a big event.

    Here are photos from the One Lap of North America Relay event in Springfield at Brandt. The blue 360 is someone that post here. The 360 Stradalle is from Peoria. The St. Louis contingent had the yellow 360 spyder, the red California, prugna 308QV, the 599 was the One Lap car that came from St. Louis and would be handed over to the Chicago group later in the day.

    Red Testarossa, red Boxer, Scud and 612 are all local to you. More than that are current and former members in town.

    Jeff thank you for the photos and info, I haven't seen half these cars around town before. Good to know they are here though.

    I saw one of the replica cobras tonight by the mall. Also saw one of the Bentleys tonight, I think it was the '12 one, looked amazing. One of my favorite cars ever!

    The Stradale is a very nice looking car, there is a guy in Springfield with one, I've only seen it once. Where do you guys usually see all these cars? Are there certain restaurants or hangout places that they gather at?

    That is a local doc. He does not drive it much. The bentley is also a doc. Most of the cars I see are usually in traffic.

    There always seem to be fancy cars over by washington park. I believe there was a meet wednesday night.

    That makes sense, doctors usually do well. Do you know what the other guy with a Bentley does?

    Also thanks, I will have to check that out. Too bad it is getting colder out, all the nice cars will be put away for awhile.
