I don't have an Italian car but will definitely come out to see all the others! Thanks for the heads up about this event.
I think this would be a great way to meet some local Fcar owners, if I am around, I will make it out to this. Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk
Hey Mike, Absolutely! We have plenty of room for trailers. Shoot me an email when you have a moment, I'd enjoy chatting with you - Knoxville is my home town! [email protected] - Kevin
Any "Ferrari-friendly" hotels anywhere in the area (or to the south along I-85) that don't cost an arm and a leg? I might be able to add another 1986 328 GTS to your collection!
what do you consider an arm and a leg being that you have a ferrari? Ballantyne resort is vert nice and close by
Yes Todd, I now have two F430 Spiders down and yours is one of them. Regarding accomodations, here are four good options right in the Ballantyne area of Charlotte. All are close together and are only about 4 miles to the event location! Staybridge Suites 800-225-1237 Courtyard by Marriott 704-341-0041 The Ballantyne Hotel 704-248-4000 Springhill Suites 704-817-1500 There are many great dining options nearby as well, some within walking distance of each hotel.
Perhaps an updated attendee list would be good? Is this something that I should print out a quick "cheat sheet" for to display in a window, et al?
Kevin, I am a probable with my Scud. Since I'm coming from Knoxville I want to wait booking a hotel until I can see the weather forecast for that week.
Hey Marco - That was just the update of the first 24 hours of registrants. I have you down and you can see the updated list below. Todd, Jr. - I will have a dash placard made for every registered vehicle that lists the year/model as well as the class and a unique number for voting. Mike - Great! You can register anytime you're ready. Updated Registrant List: 1984 308 GTSi QV 1985 Mondial Cabriolet 1986 328 GTS 1986 328 GTS 1989 328 GTS 1990 348ts 1994 348 Spider 1995 355 Spider 1997 355 GTS 1998 355 GTS 1999 355 Berlinetta 1999 360 Modena 2003 360 Spider 2004 360 Spider 2005 F430 Spider 2006 F430 Spider 1976 BB512 2005 575 Maranello 1995 Diablo VT 2007 Gallardo 2009 Gallardo LP-560 1974 Alfa Romeo GTV 1985 Alfa Romeo GTV6 1963 Maserati 3500GT 1969 Iso Grifo 2001 Qvale Mangusta 1973 Laverda SF 750 1987 Ducati 750 F1B 1998 Ducati 916 US DESMO Special 1999 Ducati 900SS 2003 Aprilia Mille R Haga Edition 2004 Ducati Monster 1000 S 2006 Ducati Paul Smart 2006 Moto Guzzi Breva 1100 2008 Ducati 1098S 2010 Ducati 848 2011 Ducati 696 Monster 2012 Ducati M1100 EVO
Four weeks and counting!! Plus, we have now reached 50 registrants with many, many more to come! Don't delay signing up, March 24th will be here before we know it.
Kevin, I think you may have a mistake with one of my cars. I am assuming that you have them listed in your updated entrance list since I see an 89 328 gts, but I see a 97 355 gts. If that is supposed to be me, it is a Berlinetta not gts. Glenn
