    Ok, it's been forever since we last had an Exotic Car Night or a 2-Hour Lunch Run. Who's falling down on the job? :D

    Rippes dropped the ball, the first one they did was a record turnout. I overheard several say they didn't like the downtown location, not that a murder next door night of mattered. :) I personally liked the location and Rembrandts, but seems North Dallas is always a popular location. Someone else needs to pick up the ball. It doesn't have to be hard to plan... a date a few months out, call ahead, and post on FerrariChat is the minimum required. I think Rippes were victims of the common over-do-it and then never-do-it again.

    We actually did two Exotic Car Nights. Sorry folks, we've been real busy doing other things - not to mention that timing seemed a little wrong since a lot of folks have been affected by the economy a blatant showing of wealth back in April or May of this year just didn't seem right. Maybe the CycloneGTS guy can do it? ;)

    The only problem with the CycloneGTS guy is that he's always out of town!

    +1, Once I get back in town I wouldn't mind planning one. Give me your thoughts about the Glass Catus in Grapevine... Good or Bad.

    I'm not sure where we would park the cars. The valet area does not seem too friendly. I'm just wondering how accommodating they would be, it seems their spots are limited??? Any idea who is the manager or director?

    Are you able to walk from the Gaylord parking lot, like the garage where cars parked for ICF?

    Parking outside the Glass Cactus is all valet. The valet company that has the contract at the Gaylord is the same one that handles the Glass Cactus, company is called Towne Park. The Gaylord contract manager's name was Bobby last time I knew. If you talk to them in advance they are usually more than accommodating. They were a big help during the time we staged the beginning of the poker run in 06. You can reach the contract manager through the hotel's main number.
