    I am one of those who always considers, but ends up with another red one. And I know it is even a sacrilege to say but ... Would it be cool if the F1 was in the same TDF blue?

    Oh yeah !!

    TDF ARMY.

    Peter, you should patent this name. Your collection has now a name.


    BTW, Is there a story behind your TdF love ? Was there a specific car wich made you love that color ?

    Your car is the best looking one by far, Peter. Just enough hints of class and aggressiveness. Not cartoony like so many of the red ones. First FXXK whose looks I genuinely like.

    Peter your collection displayed at Fiorano has the feeling of a story with some illustrations already done.
    Will 'The Official Ferrari Magazine' feature your collection for others around the world to vicariously enjoy, as well?

    Which is the speed limit on PR track with the FK? Cx & Cz coefficient for this car?
    What about the Db (noise) much more better than a 599 evo? Or Ferrari decide to reduce it as F1 rules?

    Who is the slim man and the fat man of the FK team? Sorry for asking but it s also important to know

    I wonder me if the young and very performant Swiss pilot Gary H will be avalaible for drive it one day.
    Normaly there s no chronomètre who can resist to his talent.

    Now we are talking! I was wondering if the signature FXXK shot would include glowing rotors like the 599XX... and it does not disappoint :cool:

    That's right. That car originally belonged to an Englishman - I believe - and carried the number 24. It was sold a few years ago and we haven't seen it since in the Corse Clienti events.

    Yes I am an American.

    I guess you mean the top speed achieved, and not limit? I managed 293km/h before braking for the North chicane on the Mistral which compares with 307 in my F1 car bearing in mind that the F1 car brakes much later than the K

    What do you mean by the tall man and slim man? Owners? Mechanics? Engineers? There are lots who are slim and fat and some are short and some tall!!! Why is it important to know?!

    Gary does not work for Ferrari, so I doubt he would be called upon and in any event there are enough top line racing drivers in Ferrari who helped develop the car and can do some pretty amazing lap times. There are also a few owners who aren't too slow too!!!!
