    I'd greatly appreciate it, if nobody would give away the Belgium GP race results on Sunday.

    I won't have a chance to watch the race before this event, so I'd like to watch it at home on Sunday evening.

    Looks like a nice event. I recognize quite a few cars from the Geneva Concours. Guess I should have taken a drive North today :(

    Well the weather was fantastic and the cars were even better. Congrats to our various winners: Chris with his 57 Ferrari 410 Super American, Daryl for his 69 Detomaso Mangusta, Gene with his newly acquired 74 Boxer, and Dave with his 82 Boxer.

    We did have one incident while Dave was being escorted to the winner's circle, a spectator in a electric scooter tried to do a little hill climbing with her scooter and didn't quite make it. Taking a forced landing into the side of Dave's Boxer. The lady was ok and damage to Dave's car can be repaired.

    Sorry to hear about the damage. What car won the people's choice award? Was there a best of show award?

    I was about 2 miles away from y'all!

    I guess I'm just not into drive your car someplace, park it all day, and then go home anymore!

    Dabe, I hope the damage to your Boxer isn't significant. I know how you must feel! :eek:

    I was surprised to see Chris there with his 410 SA; I haven't seen him in ages.

    You should have stopped by, they had a separate display area for late joiners in exotics: You were free to arrive and leave at any time, yet still part of the event with the car on display. That's where all the Lambos were. The club house was fantastic with a nice bar and an outdoor seating area to take it all in. Great place to hang out.

    BTW: Did anybody else try out the Porsches? I hopped into a Cayman and tried as hard as I could to get it sideways: Full acceleration, yanking the steering around, step on the gas and off the gas, but couldn't get it to powerslide. After 3 laps I gave up frustrated and got out of the car. Then they told me, that the car had stability control activated...Was fun though.

    Looks like a fun day! sorry we missed it :(
    We had to drop the fuel cell on the car to sort out some issues and it will likely be spring before Lambo comes out again as we're trying to get it through emissions. Thanks for the invite though Carla..
    really wish we had drove down even as spectators

    Looks like a great show.

    The woman with the with the outfit matching the Talbot-Lago reminded me of another I saw at Pebble Beach a few years ago. Her car was maroon and the owners dress matched (might have been the same woman).

    The suit Mrs. Cantore wore on Sunday at the event, is a recreation of the same suit that Mrs. Nash, the owner of the car in 1938 wore to a Concours in 1938 in Cannes, France in which the Tailbot-Lago won "Best of Show".

    Loved the suit on Mrs. Cantore. She just looked wonderful.

    Looks like a great show! Is that a 410 Superamerica?

    I'm guessing from the interior that's a 1960 Corvette? Am I right on the year?

    Yes on the 410. It belongs to Chris LaPorte and is an all original survivor.
