    The Ferrari Club has set Saturday April 24th as the date next year for Ferrari Expo 2010. It will be held at Continental Autosports Ferrari/Maserati in Hinsdale, Illinois. We will be again having the hand built model contest as well as the photo contest in 2010. This will be the 29th year for the Ferrari Expo near Chicago!!

    Thanks go to John Weinberger for allowing us to use his dealer every year and Hugh Ruthven for always setting up a great event(and its free!!).

    I think the $20 California rides was a great idea and a huge success. (hint, hint)

    Tom, count me in. Work will soon start on my next 1/12 model. Went shopping for lots of Rossa paint yesterday.

    Why so modest?

    I'll glady write a cheque for $ 500 to drive the 458 around the block. Seriously.

    ~ The price of admission was to ride in a Ferrari California (for a good cause) I don't think AutoSports would take on the risk [liability] to sell test drives in any of their italian art.


    IMHO

    Only 3 short months until the 29th annual Ferrari Expo 2010 Literature/Art Expo held at Continental Autosports Ferrari/Maserati.


    Should be another great year. If you want to enter the model or photo contest feel free to contact me. If you want tables contact Hugh Ruthven as usual.

    Holy cow! I don't think I would have the time to take up serious modeling. That thing looks so intricate!

    Thank you.

    It does take patience and time, which is why I only do this over these boring winter months.

    I'm impressed; of course you've impressed me with a lot of things i.e. your movie, visit to the Russian space center, your addiction to carbon fiber ;), the space capsule you made and your generosity to all!
