    Thanks guys for another wonderful drive and breakfast. I love our new club house, Chief.
    DC, your Ford GT looks awesome. Geno, do you notice a rare sighting both cabby 308GTSs are on the 33th second of the first video? Thanks Nate for posting.

    Awesome pics of another wonderful normal day. It's heaven to have an exotic here. Sorry I couldn't make the drive and breakfast. I heard it was a good one.

    Near the sea,
    a sea of red,
    what a sight to see...

    Foot on throttle,
    lean into curves,
    no where else I'd rather be.

    Static display?
    Not for FOG !
    We know Enzo's decree.

    Exercise that girl,
    join the fun,
    Driving these cars, that's what's meant to be...

    It would seem that you have a fan in this Mr. Buxton. Perhaps one of you should take him out for a ride and quell his strong curiosity.

    A kind thought Paulo...I don't get out much, quite the shut in these days.

    I do so like to see driving done right.

    Out of curiosity, who does that red 458 belong to? When did you take delivery? I'm going to grab one (yes my 3rd) on Wed but I didn't think F of SF got a red one this month. By the way, like the license on the new one? "NOTAHYB"

    Hey guys...spent yesterday at Laguna (drove 160 total miles). Against all odds, no rain all day and near perfect conditions. Missed all you usual suspects.

    Someone from So-cal had brought his 458 Challenge, on the Newport Ferrari semi truck along with three mechanics. He got to drive only a handful of laps, and was black flagged and eventually kicked off the track. He was caught at 106.5 db. Even after the crew put the supertraps on the pipes, he was at 96.5 db. Damn Laguna :-(

    Sorry I missed it Vraiment...Although I think I would have cramped your style with a none-red 430!

    Sthetix, thanks for the pics! Man it looks like your front end is in contact with the track!
    Interesting about the 458 Challenge. What did the driver do to earn the black flag?
    Just wait 'till April 25th!

    Coasting between 5 and 6 is correct 1974gt4.
    I have to do it all the time, otherwise they get me as they have in the past for around 99-100 db. Especially after my ECU upgrade.
    His black flags were all due to sound Vraiment.

    Yeah Vraiment... At Laguna, I do scrape at the corkscrew and the apex of turn 6.
    However, in order to even save my skidplates, I stick the product in the photo on the whole underside perimeter. I change it periodically. It's approximately 5mm thick, durable and very strong, easy to put on and if you use a heat gun, easily removable.
