    My first Ferrari Club event. I'm used to PCA events, and so was a bit surprised at the laid back approach at first, but it turned out to be a great event. Lots of track time and a nice bunch of folks.

    Thanks to all of the folks at FCA and FoW who put in a lot of prep time in addition to the time at the event to make it happen.

    Can't wait for the next one.

    Great pics, looks like the Ferrari of Washington guy's F40, and that's Gary's Yellow Ruf RGT (drove in the Targa Newfoundland). Seen both cars up close, both get driven a lot, nice to see!

    I was in a red F355B - car number 101 in Blue group - first time on the track in the Ferrari. Ran a 911 race car in PCA (track and Club Racing) for 5 years. 1972 911 stripped with a 1989 3.2L with full cage, racing suspension, the works. Faster and better handling ultimately than the 355, but the 355 is a good compromise street/tract car in stock form. My only upgrade was to switch to racing pads on Sunday after suffering from brake fade in turn 3 (yeah, that was me in the gravel).

    Yeah, Gary's RUF is cool....but not as cool as it will eventually be...he's changing out the original motor for a turbo'd 996 engine that will be good for more than 600HP!! I've ridden with Gary on the track MANY times both in my previous P-cars (993 street car and race car) and in his various P-cars, and the RUF is the ultimate E-ticket ride in a street car. Gary's an amazing driver and a great instructor. If you ever get a chance to get him in your right seat, or to be in his right seat, DO IT!!

    Hi Kevin,

    It was nice to meet you yesterday. I was in the Acura race car. Your 355 looks mint. Brought back memories of mine when it was still a street car.

    As far as the 355 not handling as well......................................

    ......................just turn your 355 into a Challenge and it will handle as well (my fastest lap in Challenge was a 1:18).

    Here is a pic from one of last years FOW meetings in the 355 C.

    Regards,

    Jon,

    GREAT PHOTO! I'm thinking that selling the 355 and BUYING a 355 Challenge car would be a better way to go. Of course, keeping hte 355 and buying a 355 challenge car would be even better :)

    Hope to see you out there again sometime.
