    I find myself in Shanghai this Saturday with nothing to do after a business friend had to cancel our golf plans. No flights until Sunday morning.

    Any car-related events or drives going on this weekend? I know, I know, the race is next week - stupid me, I scheduled this trip long ago without checking the F1 calendar. :(

    Anyway, I don't know the local car scene, but would enjoy taking in a few automotive sights on my day off! I'll be at the Renaissance hotel and have access to a driver if needed.

    Seems that the Racing is in Beijing this weekend, but the track should have some activity as there are racing teams there and the GP is only one week away. If I hear more I will let you know.

    Mike,

    I'll give you a call early in the afternoon. My hosts here have asked me to join them around 10:00 AM for a few hours, then I should be free.

    Getting together would be great. Call you in a bit...

    Thanks!
    Brad

    Thanks to Mike and Erik, I was able to meet and greet 66% of the Ferrari Club of Shanghai! :)

    Thanks to both of you for a very enjoyable night away from the hotels and customers. Sorry if I was a bit off the pace at the end of the evening - the result of too much jet lag and Maotai the nights before...

    I'm just now safely tucked away in my hotel in Anchorage, Alaska. Instead of 33 balmy degrees in Shanghai, Anchorage is a lovely 5. Brrrr.

    Thanks again for the hospitality - I hope to be seeing you again in November.

    Take care,
    Brad

    Any time Brad, but based on how Monday turned out, you left a bit early. Michael and I have both been having fun with the scuderia today. We'll gang up on them on Tuesday.

    You're missing a hell of a party...
