    I talked with Diane C. and she said contrary to rumors going around, the FF 2023 has not been cancelled but they are trying to find another location. She said they are still going to try to have it this year although it may be smaller than past events.

    I've been going since 2014 when I first bought my 360. Hope it continues as well since this was such a big contributor to Texas Childrens Hospital, so we'll see....

    The exotic car culture in Houston sure has gone WAY downhill in the last 6 years…..if it was a boxing match, the ref would stop it.

    After the recent Ferrari Club of America event in Galveston at the Grand Galvez (second annual).... there IS an alternative that's experienced in holding a car show like this.

    Not downplaying the FCA event at all as it is a wonderful event in it's own right. The organizers of the Ferrari Festival are very experienced as well and have been doing so for many years. I know some of the back story of what happened, and I am not at all surprised that it was cancelled. The real downside is the hit that Texas Childrens Hospital took as they received a sizable donation from the event each year.

    That's a shame, best wishes to everyone for the Holidays.

    I know Franco did it from his heart.....won't be the same without it.
    Love to all...
