    Great pics Bush. I had the 348 out this weekend at a C&C in Scottsdale but was unable to get any pics. It seems my daughter liberated the batteries from my camera again without telling me. From now on I'm going to carry spares in the car. I put some Superlight shockproof oil in the gear box on Thursday and wow! what a difference it made, especially on the 1-2 shift. It took me all afternoon to fill it 'cause I had to go in where the dipstick is. Oh well, it was Thanksgiving day and I was thankful to have a Ferrari amongst other things. I hope the whole Brotherhood had a great holiday.

    Awesome drive! I'd like to take mine out in the snow at least once just to say I did it, but won't make a habit of it. Honestly (aside from traction issues) I'd say that rain is worse than snow - it seeps down into electronics in the engine bay, while snow mostly stays down low.

    Great pics guys!
    By the looks of the weather patterns some snowy stuff isn't far behind. Hey, it doesn't have to be just snow stuff, pics of Ferrari's, friends, families, girlfriends, pets, your home, decorations, holiday lights, anything from around the planet showing the rest of the 'Brothers' your holiday spirit.

    The silver roadster is a Ginetta G20 which is primarily produced for a single make race series in the UK. They tried to market it as a road car here in the states but only sold a handful. It uses Ford headlights (from a Euro model) and a Ford engine in the UK. Here they put a Miata 1.8 engine and trans in them. It is a blast! Very loud and hot (even in the cold weather) but weighs only around 1400 pounds. I trailer it up in a small (16x7) enclosed trailer, using a Honda Odyssey to pull it the last time up. I went up there about a month ago also and I managed about 600 miles in two days of mountain driving. Here are a few pics from the Blue Ridge Parkway, and one from the love bug run here in the summer, and one next to the 348. The top of the windshield is only about 38" (the 348 is 46", so 8" lower in height)! I'm only about 5'-7" so you can see how short the car is in the second pic.
    I never stop smiling when driving it. Makes a Lotus Elise seem like a luxury vehicle.
    :D

    Very cool Bill! looks like fun to me! I have an '02 Miata Blazing Yellow Special Edition, converted to the Mazdaspeed turbo motor, its an absolute BLAST to drive!
    Unfortunately tho, due to the addition of my 348, i'm going to have to sell it this spring (VERY depressing). Its a 1 of 1 car, and ive got my work cut out to find the right buyer who will appreciate it, and understands why I want top-dollar for it. Its in pristine condition, and has under 18K miles on it (3K on the motor) all the best of everything, and tons of pricey & high-tech upgrades... so its pretty marketable.

    Nice looking house you have there BT :yes:

    Bill, thought I recognised the Ginetta ... they actually build 'em about 20 miles from where I live!

    Here's a pic of mine to show that some of us do drive these cars ... and anyone one who says "SHE told me she doesn't like the cold" has a real problem ... these cars are boys!!! :D

    Thanks! My house has been a three phase project. built in 1999/2000, 1st addition 2003, 2nd (and final!) addition 2006/2007. The Ferrari is a superior car, but the Ginetta is more fun. A fellow fchatter gave me some bomber goggles to go with the leather helmet / scarf that my brother gave me for my birthday. I'm thinking of taking a midnight drive to watch the meteor shower on the 16th.
    Nice cars there, I'm not confident driving in the snow at all, I've only driven on snow while on ski vacation.
    :)
