It's on again tonight and Sunday and then will be on their website. I'll post a link when they put it up.
Nice presentation on Bloomberg. A 4 mile private track is a nice idea. The only FIA high speed public track in North America is Road America ( Ferrari Club 2009). I hope you run some public events at the track someday. TT/SD

Make that two 4 mile high speed tracks in North America. By the way, I hope you bring one of your cars to the Ferrari club meet next year at Road America! It might be alot like your track, but with more trees. TT/SD

Jim, one of my friends bought an original Ferrari Print from the 60's as a birthday gift for me, and it is a print of what I believe maybe your car at the Targa Florio. I would like to take a digital photo of the Print and send it to you for verification.

Actually I did not realize it was Jim's car until a few days ago, when he confirmed that to me (I have been reading this thread since the beginning for the last few days and only just arrived to this point, sorry ;-))... I sent the picture of the car to Ferrari for approval as they have the final say... They authorized us to use the picture and car, therefore I believe it puts to rest that Ferrari does not approve of Jim's 0846.
Jim. When you have a high resolution picture of your completed conversion of the 0846, it will be a pleasure for us to create a custom mural for you...
I took the liberty of enhancing the picture a little bit and the gentleman is in fact the late Lorenzo Bandini... Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Hi Jim. I don't know if anyone mentioned this to you... I read just the entire thread and from what I remember, I did not see any comments concerning the tires of your beautiful 0846... These Avon look to have a "rounded" sidewall compared to a flatter looking original Firestone's. It's as if they are overinflated or too wide... is-that an optical illusion?. For historical accuracy, are you planning to swap them with vintage Firestones (or recreations) with the same bronze pinstripe finish as the wheels?

It looks that the front spoilers on 0846 are bigger and have a more square angle at Daytona... Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
It seems to have the same front spoiler shape at Targa FLorio... Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
