    I went to see Luc about my bit of damage on the rear of my F430 and made an appointment for Monday. What a great guy and thanks for the recommendations guys. The only problem I have is that I leave for Vegas on Saturday so I need someone to come to my place, jump in my F430 and drive it out to Luc on Monday morning. I also need you to pick it back up and drop it off in my garage on Friday. Sound like a little fun for anyone? I would greatly appreciate it and hopefully it's not too bad of a favor for you either. I guess it would have to be 2 of you, one to drive and one to follow. Let me know if any of you guys can do this for me. Much appreciated.

    Sounds like a very fun deal for someone who has the time to do this!

    Perhaps too much fun - Why don't you just have it transported down there and back? Probably not too much money, and you will have piece of mind.

    Your joking right?



    If your not joking then does the person driving your car have to have a license? :D

    If I lived close by I would definitely volunteer for this. What a great opportunity to drive a 430 (respectfully). Todd, you are too generous!
    any interest in the Derby Q???

    yes a license is required and a bit of a brain...but that's it. It's about 15-20 minute drive on A1A, Commercial BLVD, I95 S, 595 W, and 84 E...... It's a fun drive for someone, otherwise, I will just have a friend of mine do it but I thought it'd be good for a fellow F car guy to drive something different....

    I'd do it if I could figure out how I'd be getting home Monday. Guess I could leave my daily at your house and get a ride there from Luc's. I work about 15 minutes from his shop.

    (See Cards played)

    I would not let him near your 430.

    Just an FYI

    I'd be tempted to fly from SC just to help out...of course I would probably get lost and end up driving around for a couple extra miles (up and down the Turnpike) :)

    Ok, look like Bill and Ron got this covered for me... Thanks guys, much appreciated. Have fun. Keep it under 200...... which means you aren't allowed to go downhill at Wide open throttle in 6th gear; other than that, everything else goes, enjoy.

    You should be thankful that US F430's don't have 'launch control'................

    Couldn't have picked a better couple of guys. Black F430 will be fine.

    Thanks Todd, Ron and I will take good care of her. I bet she will go 200+ without going down hill. Oh, that was Ron talking, it wasn't me! :)

    Bill, you forgot the decimal point, that will be 20.0 MPH. I am not sure I am ready for anything smaller than my A6, we'll see.

    Ron, The decimal point will just add weight to the car, we need to leave it off, it will slow us down. :)
