DFW All English ( but Ferraris welcome) car show May 1st White rock lake.

Yes, Boxers, but only David's would be coming.
The trailer has 1/2" rods for the ramps to hook over, but those that came with the trailer are a bit...... "agricultural" - heavy angle iron things, for loading agricultural things, so the approach and peak is a bit severe. We've done it with a few other cars and it's touchy, but nuthin' like a Boxer!
It'll be a bit of a PITA, but we'll see what we can do, one way or another.

 

I got a response back from Kip Motors today saying that my '13 458 is welcome for the Italian class, so it seems they are open to newer models.

 

I received an email yesterday as well, that as long as we have 10 Ferrari sign up , under the Ferrari tab on the registration page, they will create a special
FCA DFW / Ferrari Chat award !

Good to know, I've enjoyed that event.

 

Took a closer look at my ramps. Beyond the attachment section, the length is 4.5 foot. So, might be used to extend some other ramps or use with a very short lift. My use is a rise of 6-8 inches. Let me know if I can assist.

 

My next door neighbor has a for real double axle flatbed car trailer just sitting there tauntingly.
Haven’t spoken to him for years . IIRC he is a producer for gas monkey garage and other Dfw centric car shows .
I may work up the courage to knock on his door
Worst comes to worst I may unload my enclosed race car trailer and use it . Now used as a storage container. Space finds a way to fill it .

 

Registration closes April 28 . We still need a few cars…. no ?
Other than the boardwalk show this is my favorite local one.

 

I will put it in the next FCA email, we will get several more easily!

I will post as members RSVP

We have a new Boxer in the DFW family, one that runs and drives! I’ll alert the proud owner and see if he might be persuaded….

 

Awesome.
That lets me off the hook right ?

 

Obviously, it must now be disassembled. Such is Tradition.

 

Um, no. Your car needs some daylight. Step one in its long road to recovery is removal from the garage.

 

Back on the hook! New Boxer Owner is on vacation that weekend!

 

I've got a local buddy with an F12 and another with a Cali T, I'll see if they're interested. I'll be bringing the DBS even though this is clearly aimed at vintage cars.

 

Am I missing the Ferrari tab on their registration page? I only see the Italian tab.

 

Choose the Italian tab, they will break is down into Ferrari group for the event.

I registered a car and for " Car Club Space " for us, not sure what that will translate for us, but we have it!

;-)

Registered. Thank you!

 

FWIW they tell me only 3 Ferrari have registered so far

Mike is one, I am two.. not sure who is three... but we need more!

;-)

Registered.

 

Thursday the 28th last day to register . Unless a miracle happens I won’t be able to take the Boxer . Kurt’s ( thanks for the offer ) trailer is too “agricultural” .
my schedule Thursday and Friday is pretty full to prep the car.
I can bomb down there with the Alfa QV but that is a more common car . May not enter but just show up instead .
This is a very nice show .

 

You don’t want to put your prancing horse in a horse trailer?

 

My car is not in my garage so looks like I'm out!

 

Come get it for the weekend!

I saw a total of 5 Ferraris, 4 in the show. Mine, Alex's red 355 spider (very nice), and later another red 355 spider and a yellow 348 spider. A 308/328 was parked outside the show. I'm not sure who owned the 348 or the second 355. Good seeing some folks that I haven't run into for a while.
