    Its an informal open house. Not hosted by any club. Yes, anyone can go. Some guys open up their condo units and they are truly amazing. See you there Mike?

    I saw a yellow 458 street parked on Lincoln Ave north of Foster on Friday morning (like 7am). Wasn't expecting to see that street parked.

    Anyone here?

    Do we still have any 333SP's in the Chicago(Illinois/S.Wisconsin/N.Indiana) area? I know of atleast one that used to be. If so I found something very rare that they might like to have.

    That car is at Continental Autosports for checkups and service several times a year. Real nice and extremely rare machine.

    1) Holy crap! Can’t believe that thing was spotted on a public road! I never thought they whether they were road legal. And I went to Japan last year and didn’t realize that I was 10 minutes away from a dealer that had/has one on display until I returned back from the trip.

    2) What did you find that is 333SP related? That car has a sweet spot in my mind because my ‘home’ track as a kid was Road Atlanta and I thought it was SO COOL that Ferrari thought highly enough about the race series and track that they debuted the car at Road Atlanta!
