    Just winding down now. Looks like we had about 30 cars throughout the day. Took in $1210 in rides alone at $30/ride! (Don't know why we have an irregular figure!).

    Was absolutely amazing to see everyone turn up and show their support for the cause. I am so very touched, and I know I speak for all my guys.

    Thank you.

    More to follow

    I think you're confusing me with Adam; I didn't see him around. Anyway, nice seeing you there. I would have chatted with you more but, you know, I was too busy tripping on the darn invisible steps...

    :p

    By the way, you were driving the single, high-mirror Testarossa, right?

    So far we have raised $15,174 gross! That is absolute amazing! Car rides, donations, food and raffles accounted for $2,393. My staff and I will be contacting those that won the silent auction bids and the raffles tomorrow.

    My deepest thanks to everyone who attended; the car owners who graciously gave of their time and allowed us to sell rides, all the volunteers who helped us put this event together, the people who donated the net proceeds of all the items we raffled and auctioned off, all of you who participated in spreading the word, the photographers, my staff who worked tirelessly. I am humbled and very proud to have been a small part of this wonderful event.

    Thank you all. So very much

    It was a great event and lots of fun. I still can't belive that more people bought rides in the Fiat 500 than in my Ferrari :)

    Thanks for putting this together Adrian. Always glad to help out. It was great to see everyone & chat. Sorry about your luck with the finest Ed (not one of their finest moments).
    Hope to do again next year.

    Here are a handful of mine...

    Included: an interior shot of 3 of 7 originals that are on semi-permanent display at Audio Excellence..

    and a shot of a couple of on-the-spot sketches i did at the event...

    A fun and exciting day! Thank you Adrian...And to all your helpers, BBQers, nametag makers, ride schedulers, traffic-directors, photographers and other behind-the-scene people that make the event such a success.
    And of course to all the owners that brought their pride and joy out for us to see.
    Kudos to all. Awesome!!

    That one's mine ;)

    It got through 7 rides which I was pretty happy with. Almost convinced someone to do #8 but they decided against it last second.

    Thanks, Adrian, for putting on another great event. It was a pleasure to see some familiar faces but I will try harder to introduce myself to more of you from this board as I would enjoy matching some faces to names. To those who took pics, pleas post them up!

    Much to be proud of Adrian, look for a write up in the fall edition of Northern Prancer.

    Now, who has more pictures to share?

    First artpiece done from my shots at Audio Excellence's show. A vector art drawing with Adobe Illustrator.
    Just love those strakes. And on white it works well with the high contrast look that i was going for.
    I want to get a canvas print run of this done. Nice getting back into computer illustration... gotta keeps the skills sharp by moving between mediums...

    next... keeping with the TR theme but back to Yorkville...

    For those of you that might be interested and know the story, I am happy to say that the powers that be had the same feelings as all of us and righted the wrong that a certain Constable put forth. Charge withdrawn, a no brainer if you will. Some small but good news to start your weekend with.
    Happy Driving....bring the noise!!! ;)

    Great news. That was a joke to be quite honest, I'm glad they threw it out.
