    I only looked at the 7 day, and it looks to be raining all the way through Friday. We’re staying at the Interlaken Inn on Saturday, and heading home after the event, so hopefully it’s good!

    We're hanging in Kent to have dinner with old friends and staying at the Fife & Drum. 20 min up to LRP on Sunday morning....and I'm sticking with the "weather is clearing" tale!!

    At this point, the weather looks good for Sat and Sunday, but as mentioned above, it is New England, could get snow.

    Understood. And we look forward to meeting you too. The net effect of that picture not being you is that I will now have personally "met" 2/100 of the 348 Speciales.

    The main thing I'm keeping an eye on is the temperature, as I'd be leaving around 4am to get there around 730-8. Not that I'm planning on any spirited driving on the way down to LRP, but PS4S tires start to suck at 40F. Weather Underground is calling for temps in the mid-upper 30s along the whole route and I have a 250-mile ride to get there...I'm definitely going, but on the fence about taking the 355 for this reason. If I was going half an hour across town I wouldn't be concerned about it.

    Any of you going have any thoughts, or am I overthinking this? I found out the hard way once that getting caught out in the cold on Pilot Sports isn't fun (temps lower than expected and add some unpredicted snow, which shouldn't be the case this weekend).

    You, sir, aren't wrong. I watch temps as well since the tires really don't like the cold. But I'd think with a little thoughtful consideration (which you are clearly already giving the problem....just being aware of it is a great start) you can put a little heat in those tires and a straight highway cruise will be fine. I'm counting on it.....

    True that. Actually I might get an Airbnb for tomorrow evening, it'll be a rainy drive down but they don't melt - that way I skip most of the coldest ride, and a big plus is I wouldn't have to leave so early in the morning to get to LRP.

    Nice. I have to work the first half of tomorrow but I got a room in Great Barrington for the night, about a half hour away. Looking forward to not having to do the out-and-back drive all in the same day, I go to LRP plenty and it makes for a long day doing it that way.

    Was a nice, fairly well-attended if also a fairly cold event. Brought my winter down jacket just in case and was glad I did. I got there pretty early, around 745, and left around 1130 as I didn’t want to get back too late. Got to meet @Laserguru and @Jasonberkeley - nice to put some faces with names!

    Good to see some older cars there: a pair of 330 GTCs, a pair of 250 GTEs, a 250 PF coupe and my favorite car there, an interesting 166 coupe by Vignale #0062M with patina in spades.

    The 355 ran great, logging almost 500 miles without complaint and returning 19-20 mpg on the highway.
