    I just discovered a Maserati Museum. It is very cool. I was the only guy there so the director gave me a personal tour. The museum is for the old Riverside Raceway. It has some cool Dan Gurney cars, but the majority is Maserati.

    That collection is owned by well known Maserati collector, Doug Magnon. I have not seen the collection in person but I sure would love to! :)

    Hijacking my own thread... Derek, I went to visit FOD back in Aug/Sept and the field next to it was on fire. Did you guys get any damage?

    Well, what can I say? We certainly like to impress our of of town visitors! Fortunately we did not sustain any type of damage but you should have seen the looks on the faces of the guys next door at the Land Rover dealership...they thought we was on fire! :)

    Doug is a very gracious host and a nice guy. Nice enough to give me a ride around Laguna Seca in his MC12 :-0

    I heard about this museum from a a guy down at the San Diego Automotive Museum, when I was there last week. What amazed me about the SD museum was that they had a Bizzarini P538 there.

    I saw that Blue Dino spider being sold by a dealer in the Marina del rey about a year ago. I hate the horsey logos. It had them when the car was being sold so I can't blame the current owner.
