    Greetings:

    Next weekend we will once again honor and remember our friend, Coach I http://clemsontigers.cstv.com/sports/m-soccer/spec-rel/071408aac.html. It is impossible to put into words what a great man Coach I was to many, and to measure the impact he had on all those he touched. With that thought in mind, we will gather with Julie to honor and remember him by sharing amongst us one of his passions-Ferrari.

    Please contact me if you would like to attend this event, and by all means, bring your Ferrari or other special car to show and share. Please RSVP so we can plan accordingly for the food. Note that we are having a dinner Friday night with reserve parking in Greenville, the concours on Saturday, rally to Highlands, dinner in Highlands, and finally a Rally and Brunch on Sunday in Highlands (open the pdf or word document for details). Feel free to attend any or all of the event by contacting me at [email protected].

    My word, there were some exotics passing me this morning on I-26 south.

    Let's see... A Diablo, an F355 Spider, a (turbo?) Carrera, SLS?

    Me in my Dino and my daughter in her yellow 2002 poking along to Cars & Coffee in Greenville. She sure loved seeing them all! :)

    Hey Uro,

    That was us! We were indeed heading down for a great day at the Coach I Memorial BBQ. Nice to pass your Dino and 2002 as well. Our group was the Diablo VT (I was riding shotgun), 355 Berlinetta, SL 500, Carrera, and '61 Thunderbird Convertible.

    We met John Budinich yesterday afternoon and he mentioned you had attended Cars & Coffee earlier in the morning.

    Thank you, FOREIGN CARS ITALIA, for your sponsorship and for making this event possible. You've been there from the beginning, with this being our fifth year anniversary. You have made it very special for us, and Coach would have be proud to know that the tradition he began continues...

    Juliei,

    Mellisa and I thoroughly enjoyed being with you and all of our Ferrari friends. This was Melissa's first visit and she was just blown away by the house and the marvelous amenities. David again did a super job of coordinating everyone to help remember such a great man and Clemson's most successful Coach. I know we all send our best to Hank Carp whose mother passed away recently. He's such a fine representative for Foreign Cars Italia. Juliei, thank you so much for letting Melissa play that beautiful Steinway piano. She was in heaven! We appreciated everything you did and look forward to seeing y'all again soon.

    Julie & David, Thanks for another great week end. It's always great coming up from Atlanta for this event. We know Coach was with us, this past week end and seeing old friend, and making new ones, around beautiful cars, good food, is always a lot of fun. Craig & Tricia Harris

    Julie and David...
    I hate that Amy and I missed it this year. It's been a tough couple months with the passing of my Mom. I want to thank you guys for the thoughts and prayers and we look forward to being with you next year!

    Hank
