Just incase someone needs the adress to type put into their nav. system or mapquest..... 1021 Monterey-Salinas Highway Salinas, CA 93908 -Brian
Well, here is a couple of a Zagato bodied Ferrari. I don't recall seeing or reading about this car, looks like its a Maranello with a different body. What is it, a one off or was it a production model? It did have regular plates, non-dealer, I wouldn't think a one-off non-production car could get registered but really not sure. Jeff
IMO, Zagato has transformed the most beautiful into some of the ugliest cars ever produced, totally ruined AM's, F-cars, whatever they touch...! What an UGLY F'n F-car. Like I said, just my opinion...
Right, because the DB4 GTZ is ugly? Or the 250 GT Zagato? Zagato has produced some of the most timeless, amazing, absolutely gorgeous designs over time. Any coach builder has had abominations over time, but the fact that they're still around 50+ years later is a testament to their abilities.
We had a great time today. The FXX cars were cool but h the earing the F1 cars on the track were unreal. The hospitality room was right over the front straight and seeing those F1 cars come screaming down and then braking into the first turn was amazing

The white 599 and the yellow scud were the same owner. The 599 had white interior with red stiching and clear plastic floor mats.
That Scud and 599 pulled in behind me. I swear the color of the Scud was changing every time I looked at it
Interesting color, certainly not my favorite. Great time today as well. I've got to do this every year. Jeff
i pulled in right behind them, haha. I had a great time and took a ton of pictures. I tried getting some paddock passes but was not successful...o well, was still amazing to see the cars.
Hi Brian, Nice meeting you as well, you are a true car guy. It was a great day, the F1 and the FXX were epic. See you around ... Franky
AMAZING pics, Brian!! I can't wait to see your vids on YouTube! Sorry I wasn't able to make it out yesterday. PEACE!!!! -G.B.
This was a great experience. I think even better than the Historics. I lucked out and got into the paddock. Is this event an annual thing?
Here's my gallery of the paddock Cars, I'll have the rest of the pics of the cars on the track later. http://picasaweb.google.com/bobbytriantos/FerrariChallengeLagunaSecaStaticCars

Great show in Carmel today. Lots of beautiful vintage F cars. I heard the white 599 was a special order and Ferrari said they would not make another like it so he would have the only one. He is the owner of Boardwalk Ferrari. The color on his yellow scud had a green metallic flake which made the color change as the light hit it.
fantastic photos....Thanks for sharing. Is there any way of getting a hi-res of img_0462 for your track shots. If so that would be awesome...Thanks in advance Jason
It is truly a remarkable event and I think it is going to surpass the Italiano... we'll see by Saturday what happens with the future of the Italiano...
