    Great video. Thanks for posting. A bit narrow in places and some people were standing on the sidelines without protection. :)

    Fritz, congratulations. Did the owner of that MG TF ask you to drive it in the climb?

    Thank you! Its a historic Morgan Plus 4 and the owner is a close friend and almost as old as me.

    I am 76 years old, travelled all over the world since young and regret that only three years ago I found this paradise called PORTUGAL.

    Come over and see for yourself. Be my guest...

    What actually was the racing car that they called a GT.

    Great smooth driving by the way, but no surprise.

    Hi Tim,
    That car is a Marcus LM600 and it's a real race car that used to compete in GT Series in it's time.

    In the spirit of the event, that car should have run in a racing series and not with the other street cars.


    Fritz, I'm glad you enjoyed the event nonetheless. You're truly a gentleman driver, straight from the days where that concept had a true meaning.

    Best regards.

    My adorable Cappuccino was killed by a free alone pitbull while having his morning walk.

    Its more the fault of the absent pitbull owners Pedro Souto e Rita, than of the dog.

    A girl friend had my little Maltese when the pitbull attacked. I have been crying since...

    Pardon me of repeating this photos of my gone best friend.

    Thank you, CAPPUCCINO for 8 years of love and company. Had more than 50 k miles with me in my FF and 458 Spider.

    CAPPUCCINO, I miss you terribly my little white angel!!!! I love you!!!

    Losing a beloved dog, particularly in such circumstances, is wrenching.

    You have my sympathy and condolences.

    I'd like to say how sorry I am to hear the very sad news about Capuccino. I feel for your loss. I lost my best friend, a german shepherd, on the 30th November 2013. One of the saddest days of my life. He died aged 10 of natural causes (old age), but nothing prepared me for such a loss. My girlfried has a Maltese exactely like Capuccino, and she was devastated by your news.

    Before I saw your post about your beautiful Capuccino, I just wanted to say this, as a portuguese and a fellow Ferrari owner of a Mondial and a 355:

    Mr.Fritz D'Orey is one of the greatest ambassadors my country has ever had. The way he loves and promotes Portugal is touching, admirable and inspiring. I live some 30min from the wonderful city of Cascais, one of my favorite places in the whole country. The photos Mr.Fritz D'Orey posts are absolutely beautiful and do justice to the fair city of Cascais. I haven't had the pleasure of meeting Mr.Fritz D'Orey yet, but I had the rare pleasuring of exchanging e-mails with him and he's a very warm human being. I can't help but feel proud and fortunate to be influenced by his love of my country and the brand I so love and cherish.

    That said, I hope you overcome your loss as best as possible, God knows it isn't easy. All the best!

    Your young portuguese friend,

    Nuno.

    Some years ago I had to put down our family dog Brendan. I held him as the veterinarian gave him the lethal injection. I couldn't believe how badly I felt and for how long it lasted. These animals are faithful friends and companions.
