    Just wanted to bump this thread! We are excited about the event this Saturday. Ted has been super busy finding lost treasures for sale. We will have the Moving Sale/Garage sale and our vendors inside. I'm seeing maintenance items, books, owner's manuals, sales brochures, factory posters, all sorts of NLA stuff, wheels, shop manuals and so much more.

    See you guys tonight at Ferrari of Atlanta and then again on Ted's!!

    Two Funny things.
    First: I asked Ted where he was going. He said Buford. I didn't know.

    Two: Jim says as he leaves the shop "John you are suppose to get some snow"

    By the time I was about 3 miles north of Helen at about 10:55 PM EST, we were in a blizzard, I could see about 60 feet in front of the car. It was not suppose to happen until Thursday, Friday, and maybe Sat. Just glad I could catch it on the first day of Spring.

    And the winner, by Default , or gift from the true winner. Well you will see.

    Great time, fun to see everyone. Jack and I tried to remember everyone's name, he beat me on this one.

    Good Show Tom, thanks Will. and Ted make it quit snowing so I can get back down on Saturday for you shindig. Maybe Shank a few ball with a driver or two.

    Great event last night and thank you to those responsible for putting it on!
    It was very cool to hear Bob Varsha talk about F1, and I'm even more pumped I won a book.
    Looking forward to Saturday :)

    Thanks to everyone who came out and braved the traffic! Sorry we did not get more folks!

    Wolfgang Puck did a great job with the food... they have offered to do a contest for a free behind the scenes tour at the aquarium - I'll post the details once I get them!

    Will, Hugh, Ed and all the FOA team - Thank you!

    Everyone call Kathy at the Ferrari Market Letter, so you can hear Bob Varsha's Voice mail message.... I hope we will have more folks at Ted's on Saturday.

    Tonight the car will be at Ronald McDonald House from 6:30 to 8PM let me know if you want to come along - I'll send you the details.

    Cheers Ya'll!

We have basically re arranged the whole shipping and recv'g departments to accomodate for less than Ferrari friendly weather. Great food, great company and some great deals! Hope to see you there!

    I am working on this and HOPE to be there on Saturday afternoon - will things still be going on then??

    I will probably NOT be in my Ferrari unfortunately...I have to pick my daughter up in Butler, GA then am hoping to head north up to Atlanta and Tucker to see whoever may be around.

    Are you bringing your 308 I presume??

    If so, I may make more special effort to take mine - then we could possibly get 3 of the metallic black cars together if Mitch brought his too!!!

    Yeah, I am. What the hell...

    I'll bring an extra towel for any possible leaks. Not sure how well that Saratoga top seals out the rain. I hope I won't have to find out.
