Chasing my Brother in his California..Video...ahhh, that 430 sound!!

Went to Car show and Rally....I brought my 430 spider and my Brother brought his California....About 80 cars for the Show.....I got lucky and Won, "Best of Show" in 1990 and later.....and "Best of Class".....Show was at a Casino and my wife won 800.00 in Blackjack and Craps.....I'd say it was a win all the way around ..

Here is a Video of us coming back from the Rally to a plantation house... My wife separated us for the drive home, later.....making him leave earlier.... she didn't want us getting "Carried Away" again..

Sounds better with good speakers

 

Whoa nice video, a little music thrown in, the sound of 430 rowing thru the gears... What's not to like about any of it! Nice job and thanks for sharing

 

Yeh that was a great little clip.

My missus would have been going ballistic if that was me, with her sitting in the car.

She's such a buzz kill

 

I'm proud of you for having a manual transmission. Definitely the way to go.

 

That was the main Reason for buying the Car......I have a Great 328, 86'....and love the Gated shifting......But I lusted after a 430 for years....then one night on F Chat, I saw where one was being listed, with a Gated shifter!!...Rare .......I was the First to call the guy and I told him to Hold it for a couple of days, so I could get the money together....Called him back and 12 other people were interested...but I was first on the list.....a Week later she was at our house.......I guess I'll sell the 328, I hate to, but I really don't want to take care of two Ferrari's......well...maybe for a little while longer ....I just had the Belt service on the 328 and its really running good...even the AC blows cold.....I'm torn on Keeping it or selling it. Oh Well.

 

that car, that sound, and most importantly your driving configuration (one hand on the wheel the other on the manual gearshift lever) is just amazing. Well done sir!

 

Terrific video. My only issue is the California should have been staring at your rear!!

 

aren't both cars pretty evenly matched? just curious I know Calis are a much softer car but I've heard they are super fast.

 

Speed Wise I think they are Identically matched. We raced side by side from a dead stop up to 88mph...... And each time we we're dead even.
