    I'm participating in the FCA 50th Anniversary in CT. On Sunday May 5th the caravan will be leaving Miller's Stamford Serivce facility at 9AM. I will be driving down on Sunday morning from the Hartford area. Is anyone else also going to Stamford and would like to caravan?

    I plan on going down for the Cocktail party Sat night and then meeting the group at Max burger and will follow it up to the Air museum. My pops and going to be one of the 599 drivers on that leg.

    Heading out at 7am solo. I never got a confirmation or decals. Maybe they hand them out there? I'll look for Dipstick1 for the second leg. Is anyone else joining in at West Hartford?

    Miller had a nice breakfast for us and they had the cars in the shop on display. A very nice 250GT SWB. One just sold at action for 8.1 million. Then a bunch of ordinary stuff, Veyron, F50, 550 convertible, rows of Bentleys and Aston Martins. We had 17 Ferraris from Stamford to West Hartford. A Daytona, a couple 308s, a 328 and a 512M. The other cars were 360s and newer. The drive on the Merritt was very memorable. We would stop at rest areas to change 599 drivers filling the area with Ferraris and causing a commotion. One little boy said, "Mommy, its a Ferrari Party"! I talked to a BMW owner at one stop and he followed us all the way to West Hartford center. I followed a 430 Scud through the West Rock tunnel and all I can say is, it needs to be checked for cracks.
