    I’ll be heading to Avon, and Klingberg next Saturday. Won’t be to many car events now that my daughters cheer games are Sunday morning.

    I am going to go today. And Brett may come as well. Not sure if we'll go to G'Bury first.

    I feel like Rudolph. Everyone left Joe and I and wouldn't let us play in their reindeer games.

    Nice event, weather was great. Good to see some familiar faces, and lots of different cars. That vintage BMW with the turbo was one of my favorites.

    I was just on the website for Klingberg, and I didn’t see a spot to register. I have to leave around 10:30, and it sounds like it’s gone much more formal than past events.

    If you are intending to participate in the Concorso, you can't register, you must send photos of your car to the organizer for acceptance.

    It is a Fireball. It's an international, one-design class racing dinghy. Will do about 15 knots on or off the wind. I had one back in the 70's that I sailed with a friend. Then I graduated to racing a J30 in the 80's.

    Anybody in tomorrow? Weather is looking good.

    Hopefully the 488 won't leave me stranded again. I took the 488 to Heather's baseball game today and when I went back to the car to come home, I got a "total electrical failure" and the car was completely dead (and the car is always on the battery tender). When Ferrari Roadside Assistance told me it would be 3+ hours to get a tow truck to car, I found a good samaritan who had a jump box and we got the car started. Needless to say, I immediately invested in a jump box.

    More and more, I am convinced I should go back to an analog car of a 308 or TR.

    I'll be there too.

    Joe, I feel your pain. The 355 has never left me stranded but it had it moments. The 308 has been as reliably as a Honda for 33 years. :)
