    Hi guys,

    The Ferrari Club of America NC Chapter's 5th Annual Beach Trip is nearing with a new venue and a cooler time of year we're sure you'll enjoy. After 4 years in Beaufort, it was time to spice things up with a new event with less sweat in Wrightsville Beach/Figure-Eight Island in early October! Our FCA events keep getting bigger and bigger and we fully expect another 30+ car/60+ people turnout for the big weekend. Many thanks to our sponsors Foreign Cars Italia, Ricambi America, Apex Vintage, and Sport Auto and especially to our hosts for the weekend, the Andersons.

    You can't really count Luca as a full attendee -- can you? He's more like 1/3, I think.

    Hey Buddy,
    Since you have moved up in the world you need to change you FChat name to Blue430 or maybe Azuro430.
    Sorry you can't make it. Good luck on the new move. Hugs to Sherry and The Jude.
