    An FYI on this event...you can call 704-351-2087 and speak to Paul or e-mail him at [email protected] about volunteering. They need volunteers for various tasks but "...nothing strenuous or too tedious". When I spoke with him today he said there would be a number of vintage Ferraris as well as British sports cars and some "unususal cars like ASA1000 and Alpine Reno".
    My posting this also has a selfish motive in that I am wondering if any of you Ferrari owners are coming to the event and I could wrangle a "ride along" (I posted on this previously) for my husband as a treat.
    The website on the event is carolinatrophy.com

    Nothing is listed on the site, but I believe ther are headed toward the dragon(tailofthedragon.com). I went over last night and checked them out, very cool older cars(vintage). As well as a 612 scag & Aston DB9( smokin hot! ). Only other ferrari's I saw were 2-Dino's. Also saw a porsche 356 with Ontario plates!!

    If you are near asheville go by the grove park after 5 they should be around in the parking decks.

    awesome to see such beautiful cars... esp the vintage (60's) Ferrari in awesome condition - sorry, I'm not so good on the car details - my husband is the true aficionado. It was so ideal for their road rally, perfect weather, stunning cars and beautiful setting...

    yes it was stunning...the route, over 120 miles was awesome. Lots of good pavement, and very light on traffic. The very rare Alpine, 914-6 race car, 50's Jag, XKE coupe, Ferrari 250, AH 3000 race car, MGs, multiple Porsche speedsters and coupes, all were beautiful, and the sound of the open exhaust, the Ferrari and 914-6 were increible. It is very rare that you will get the chance to chase one of these cars up and down the mountain flat out. Thanks to Jeremy and David for allowing me to ride along, since my car was not ready... It is interesting to compare the Boxster and 355.

    Thank you Bob and Paul for putting this on! It was excellent. You guys and gals just have no idea what you missed.

    Leah were you there saturday? I was driving the porsche boxster S and FMS650 was the 355. We did talk to a guy who had 2-kids and drove a 7-series, that wasn't your husband was it?

    It was a great time and there were some great roads I had never been on(good job Bob & Paul). I enjoyed trying to make JDavid sick, seeing Kevin, and mixing it up with Fender in the 355. Glad you all could make it up. RedlineG60 well not much to say about him.......hahaha Mr. DD

    Crap missed another great event. I passed thru Asheville on Friday morning around 9am going to Gatlinburg TN for a Hot Rod event cruise. I swore I saw Fender and Andy in that Red 355 flying by me early that morning.
