    True story, daughter of a law firm owner/partner. There is a video out there, she did the spin and then bumped into a wall at like 1 mph. Speculation is she was shocked by the spin and didn’t think to use the brakes when she could have easily stopped with no damage.

    They usually bring some fillers to these type car shows to promote the business. Maybe one of them, who knows [emoji2]

    Not sure if this counts as spotted, exactly... but I just got back from the Tejas Tusimo rally and there were some amazing machines there. The queen of the show was the 300SL. Ferrari wise there was a 365BB, two 308QVs (my red one and a black one), a black 328, a 355, and two Dinos. I did not see the 365BB on the rally, though, but I may have missed it. The 355 broke on route to Austin. The 308s were among the first cars back to the hotel, so I guess we won?

    Would love more Ferraris next year...

    Some random pictures... I'm sure they have more here: https://www.instagram.com/tejasturismo/

    Saw a red Testarossa at the Shell station on east bound I-10 in the Heights on Saturday morning. Shout out to the owner as I watched him very graciously take the time to help a random guy get a picture with his car. Great representative for the brand.
