    The Houston, TX sticker on the side of the truck gave it away for me...

    so, Dr "boy that didn't last long" Who, when does it get delivered? (and don't forget, we have low tides here twice daily, you won't be able to drive it off the ferry ramp without scraping the sump....) nice that it comes with that shiny blue Tonka truck too.....

    anyway, I'll have move the GTC out of the barn to make room for my new MC12......

    Find it a little amazing that they are pushing on a carbon wing ... hope that is replaced before the next time the car tops 200mph!!!

    I think the car looks stunning.

    The wing should hold that easily. As long as you are pushing front to back or otherwise or down you should be okay. Never push it sideways. It will crack. The force that sits on the wing while driving 200Mph is a lot more than some guys pushing is rolling flat.

    Exactly ... I wouldn't push on it if I owned and raced the car, but that is just whimpy me ;) :D, who has visions of KR and McLaren type wings failures ... :eek:

    For once I agree with Pete.

    Great car, but the guys pushing on the wing pretty much screwed that poor racer. I hope that the carbon wing will be replaced before any serious testing or racing.

    It is really cool how the carbon fiber lays down very rough. This is one kick butt car. This is definitely what the next Ferrari super car should like. Take no prisoners.
