    Franco Valobra organized another wonderful event with fabulous cars in attendance including SWB, F50, Dinos, F310B, MC12, F430GT and many more. Teh event was open to the public and a huge and enthusiastic crowd attended.

    I had a great time and was thrilled to bits to see a SWB again ... what a masterpiece!!

    On with the pics...

    250 SWB steel bodied car with a couple Aluminium parts - hood, doors and trunk. This was my pick for car of the show - brilliant car

    I would have driven down to Houston for this, how did I miss this event???!!! I would have great to see more people that I messed from my last trip down there. My Aunt lives in the neighborhood just behind that shopping mall. I would have wanted to take my #1 nephew to that event. He's already Ferrari fan at the age of 4 1/2 with a little help from BigTex.

    Sam - thanks for posting the photos (excellent as always) - sorry we missed it but another commitment kept "Sophia" away . . . next time Franco does something hopefully there won't be a conflict. #62 looks a bit different than when we saw her at Road Atlanta!

    Thanks,
    Carol

    Nah, it looks like a driven Ferrari and that's the most important thing!

    I am sure you will see 10X the cars - looking forward to some good pictures from you

    That's because it is a 360 N-GT and not a 430 GT as I put in the title :)

    Thanks for including the Ferrari Art Car!

    It was "outside the ropes" but was very happy to be at Franco's event!

    It was on the FCA website Calender, Will.........when Franco says "save the date"......you DO it! LOL!

    I'm glad Lady Valeria put some Speed Shine on the back valence, she said it was a little dusty...

    Great shots, Sam...as always. The one of the lug nut reflections is especially nice.....
