    Here's my car and it's Capistro on the local news here in Hampton Roads during a promotional segment for an event run at the local winery this past weekend. The car's shriek could be heard throughout the 300 acres.

    Many of the event attendees are reporting-in over on the Mid Atlantic regional section under GTO vs. GTO....

    Love the sound of the 355+Cappy! Awesome how the video editors clearly chose the F355 over the 430 for most of the clips.

    The reporters did a very respectable job rattling off some factoids about the cars and their designs. Did those attending feed them the info for their scripts or did they do their homework?

    Great film :) Great sounding F355 as one would expect, but doesnt the F430 sound so disappointing.

    Larry Printz is the Virginian Pilot's automotive editor and a very serious car guy, so doing this segment was a bunch of fun for him. He did his homework.

    I also took him for a couple of passes up and down the 'driveway' to the winery 'at speed'...

    As for the smoke from the 430, I believe it might have been some residual fluids from a recent service to the car. You guys should head over to the Mid Atlantic Region 'GTO vs. GTO' thread and see some of the photos from the weekend (including Dan Gurney...). Some real good stuff.
