    If you have yet to go to this annual event, you've missed out. The 2008 Event is coming fast. I have attached the flyer for your review. It is held across the street from the San Diego Airport at Spanish Landing overlooking the San Diego Bay. It is a must see if you are around. We will have enthusists from all around Southern California. The event is open not only to Ferrari's but will include Lamborghini and Maserati. Concours level Italian classics from well known Southern California
    collectors will be featured. This year, we add the Italian super bikes from Ducati, Aprilla and MV Augusta. A significant amount of the proceeds will go to the Scripps Stevens Cancer Foundation, La Jolla.

    Take a moment and look at the flyer.

    Is this for drivers / owners only - or are the cars open to the public for viewing?

    Guaruja,

    The event is held at Spanish Landing park, near downtown and in front of Linbergh Field. We have obtained the use of a large parking lot near the event to get around last years visitors parking problems. You can also get more information about the San Diego Region Ferrari Owners Club at http://www.focsandiego.com/

    We invite all Ferrari, Lamborghini and Maserati owners to attend along with the exotic Italian motorcycles. We will have light breakfast items in the morning, a buffet style lunch that is available for a longer time period than last year. There will also be some local vendors there to show their products and services. You will know that last year was great if you attended, this year we are trying to make it bigger and better.

    Bump.

    I received an FOC email today - if you're planning to bring your exotic car/motorcycle, you'll probably want to register soon. Otherwise parking and food can be issues... ;)

    If anyone from North County is interested, a few of us are meeting at 6:30 am on Saturday morning at Firenze Restaurant parking lot to drive down together. This is located right on the boarder of Rancho Santa Fe and Encinitas at the intersection of Encinitas Blvd. and Rancho Santa Fe Road.

    Any of our resident FChat photography gurus going to be there?

    The alternative is more snapshots of my thumb in front of some great Ferraris...

    Well, I don't consider myself a photography guru, but I do know where to place my thumb. I'll be there with my DSLR.
