Its looking good Tim. Even Dennis The GM at FoNE is interested, He's a great guy, I've known Dennis for about 10 years, he is definately someone we all want to know better.
The owner of Mangia Bene went to the Town Hall this morning (its across the street from Mangia Bene). He has arranged with the town to have parking spots available for us taped off at the town hall. There are going to be cones and tape out there and we will have a guy who works at Mangia Bene watching over the cars for us. There is sidewalk seating and the restaurant will be open for coffee, cappuccino... and pastries. I think this will be exciting... A Ferrari flag will be outside the store, and we are looking to have a couple of Ferrari technicians joining the "party" also. All are welcome, lets hope the weather is in our favor.
Looks as if we are going to have great weather. Hope to see everyone! Any chance we will see any of team who meet Sundays in Beverly MA tomorrow down South? Mangia Bene @ noon time 7/15 20 S. Main Street Mansfield, MA 02048
So how'd it go? Sorry I missed it in the end, my one year old broke his leg and I was dealing with that all weekend.
Everything went great. Sorry to hear about your son breaking his leg. Hope he will be ok. We plan to arrange another meeting in the future. Later tonight I will post some pictures.
Good to see everyone in Mansfield today...5 cars, not bad for the 1st SE Mass Ferrari group meet. Next time let's all get together and drive there together. Maybe a bit of a rally from FofNE to Mansfield center?
I like the sound of that ! Great pick for a meet location with cordoned off off street parking with room for plenty of cars. On the edge of a small park with some appreciative passersby. Thanks to mangia bene for arranging the parking and for some wonderful paninis on the lunch menu. The Venezia was Yummy ! And it was good to see Mark and the guys from FoNE for a few good laughs. I never thought a carbon fiber brake disc the size of a large pizza pie would be so light ! Amazing! We just need some 3x8's(you know who I'm talking about there CaptnBilly), 348/355's to round out the Tr/360's/430's we had today.
A few shoots taken today. Nice day for everyone and special thanks to Claudio ( Mangia Bene owner ) along with all the guys from FoNE. We hope to gather more cars over time, as I know a few guys were not available to drop by (tough time of year). Andrew and some others folks did dropped by to say hi and we hope to see them and their cars next time around. Maybe we can make this a regular thing.... Thoughts?

It was great to see everyone on Sunday in my home town, very convenient! Perhaps we should arrange a nice drive through the area with a final destination being Mansfield center. It wont be a Mille Miglia but it could be a very pleasant way to spend an hour. Great pictures!
sounds like a great idea, Hey Tim I'll give you a buzz, I say we start planning the next get together now. 2 weeks from now sounds great to me. summer is coming to an end, and when everyones car is sitting somewhere in storage or in their garage everyone will wish they had gotten out more when the weather was nice. LOL John
I agree, it should be a regular thing. Thanks also to Claudio, and the Town of Mansfield for allowing us the parking facilities, what a great location and the people who happened to be in the neighborhood really enjoyed it also. It was really great to meet everyone in person, Tim, Rick, Kenny, Andrew and to have FoNE join us. I love the idea of have FoNE as a meeting place with a drive afterward. They can help get the word out and we will probably have a nice size convoy. Enjoy your week guys!
We are looking to setup another meeting at Mangia Bene 20 S. Main Street Mansfield, MA 02048 Time yet to be determined. As we did back in July. All are welcome. Anyone interested in meeting and then going for a drive?
I just have to double check my shedule, but I'd be interested in bringing my 328 to Masfield and meeting some fellow SE Mass Ferrari owners (I split my time between MA and RI). Best regards, Dino
Ill come down down for a noon-ish meet in my 360 spider after our 9 am starbucks southborough coffee meet Sunday mornings. I could probably get Darius to go as well. Ive put almost 10K miles on it this summer. Barry Chapin
The more the better. I look forward to everyone attending. So far looks like a good number of folks are interested.
