    That is a hell of a turnout. If all those cars had been at Roebling Road last month that would have been cool.

    I was there in the blacked out C5 FRC. You guys have some REALLY impressive cars! Thanks for letting a Vette park near the event ;)

    Here's a video I threw together real quick:

    Love those Boxers! Great selection of TR's and two F40's! Looks like Roland was there, too... <grin>

    There actually was a third Boxer parked away from the two that I didn't get a shot of. Just amazing.

    I had a GREAT time today at the meet. It was great to meet Joe, Wade, Shannon, John and everyone while looking at some fantastic cars. (Although waiting around at Starbucks was a little chilly...) The weather turned out to be perfect, along with the cars + the people.

    It was a nice surprise to be able to start my Thanksgiving break off like that...

    A huge congratulations goes to Kevin for putting this all together!! As someone that has organized countless car club events, I can say that this was a lot of work and he did a wonderful job. I don't think most people realized there were this many Ferrari's in the area. What amazed me even more was how many "other" sports cars stopped by. EVERYONE knew about this. Great Job!!

    Kevin, next year....you're going to need a bigger venue!!!

    First off outstanding job Kevin, What a great show this was. Started out a bit on the chilly side(especially at starbucks) but ended up a very nice day. No one could have known so many ferrari's were around this area, and to have 2 F40's outstanding. Thanks to Coach I, and Roland for coming up what a nice time for them to be here. Look forward to this next year.

    Fantastic event guys, great cars and a real high quality bunch of enthusiasts. Wish there could have been a few more vintage cars there, but no complaining and thanks to the owner of the 275GTS for bringing that beauty out. Does anyone know who the owner of the light blue metallic F430 Spider is? That was the one serial number which I forgot to get and I'm trying to get that number to complete my list. Please send PM or email if anyone knows the owner or has the number. Thanks!

    Oh yea, 45431 was a very nice Boxer, as were the other 2 that were there. Fairly unusual to see 3 boxers and not one of them painted in the "Boxer trim" with the black lower half of the body. I personally like the all red paint job though. Lot of power for the money in those cars. I have a few other shots of 45431, so just shoot me an email if you'd be interested in them. I have multiple shots of all cars there, all in higher res too, so if anyone wants some of a specific car, just let me know.

    I too thoroughly enjoyed the short time we had to meet and get to know the Ferraris owners who had such beautiful cars at the show. I now wished we had another hour or two to talk and get to know new friends. I was disappointed that there was only 1 vintage Ferrari there, and it was somewhat hidden...people fuss about new Ferraris, but to me that 275 GTS was a beauty...i never met its owner.

    Next time, I will bring a daytona and maybe others will bring some more older cars.

    Enjoyed the pictures guys, thanks for posting.
