    My car doesn't keep water out. If it isn't raining I'll probably drive up that morning to visit and back that night. Sounds like a good event.

    So far the 10 day forecast on weather dot com looks good. I have reserved myself a spot. I'll probably be leaving from Baton Rouge at 5am on Saturday morning. Save a spot on the green for me, I'll probably arrive between 8:30 and 9am. I think they close the field at 9:30. I'm looking forward to a brisk ride up with the top down at 5am. Hoping my heater works better after my service and cleaning a few connections.

    Well, the interior certainly didn't get done, but I have packed in preparation of Italian cars.

    Floor jack
    Jackstands
    Extra coolant/water
    Huge bundle of zip ties
    Multimeter
    Connectors
    Extra wire
    Every hand tool imaginable


    Oh, and a camera to document the nearly guaranteed breakdown. Now I just have to hope it's not my car that decides to misbehave.

    You forgot the electrical contact cleaner and AAA card.

    You should know that I always carry a AAA card as I'd never lower myself to something as mundane as changing a tire.

    And a can of Coke will suffice for contact cleaner if need be. Plus you're left with a good bit of delicious beverage afterwards.

    Anyone planning to catch part of the game while in Ridgeland? I'll have my pre-teen son with me so can't do a sports bar but might try to find a restaurant w/TVs for a late lunch/snack.

    Looking forward to seeing the 288GTO that will be there tomorrow. According to their Fbook page they will have a 288GTO, Enzo, F40, Green 250GTO PF Coupe Replica, 575, 550, 308, F430, 355, Scuderia, Testarossa, and the new 458. Nice mix of cars that will be there. Ferrari was definitely the major attraction last year. You could hardly get up to see the Enzo and F40 there were so many people around it the whole time.

    I know of at least one car that's rarer than any of those that will be there... =0

    What would car would that be? Would have to be pretty rare to be rarer than a 288. Was it there last year? Now I'm running through all the different cars it could be in my head trying to guess.

    Looks like also a Mondial, 328 GTS, 512BBi, single mirror TR, another 328, and a 348 Series Speciale, another Mondial, 360 Spider, 308 GTSi Turbo, and a couple more 430's.

    All this off of the eurofest website and Fbook page. If all these cars really show up this is going to be a great show.

    Had a great time and saw a few familiar faces and cars. Took the Natchez Trace home so added a couple hours to the return trip but was worth it.

    I'm po'd about the date stamp; really missed up some of my pics, which aren't great to begin with. :mad: I've turned it off and now know to look for the icon on the screen. :eek:
