    You match the GT so well. What's the GT and Diablo like to drive? I've always wondered.

    How can one get a job like yours!?

    After the Canadian Lambo/Ferrari day this was again a big difference on the track. The Lambo is a GT for the hwy, to heavy for the track but fast in good hands.This one was a unique "Victoria Secrets" white color !!! Where were the models ???
    The GT is a "track" and was build to do that. I was surprise how fast the GT was and how the handling was in the superior level. It took a few tires pressure to get things right, but after that we were for a treat..
    You need one of each but any would do OK in my garage.

    White makes it look naked. It needs a bra on the bumper, especially since it's a Victoria's Secret car.;)

    Roland, it looks like, with a helmet, you barely have headroom in the GT. Did you have to duck to close the door? I have not driven one but did sit in one and found the cabin very very tight, even w/o a helmet. If I remember correctly, I am a few inches taller than you so I doubt I would fit without some sort of seat change or modification. How was the fit for you?
    BTW, bbq looks great and I do miss Colorado(used to live in Telluride). Maybe some of us N. Cal drivers will make it out one year!

    Howdy John, yes, it's a tight fit but my helmet didn't touch the roof. The only trouble is when you exit the car, you must watch not to hit the top of the door while being open. The recess sticks out and when you get up, well , the top of the door is in the way.
    Beside that, I had no trouble at all to get into a comfortable speed.
    Yes, you're welcome to join us at the next BBQ, we had Malcolm from San Diego who drove his Daytone here...He must have been hungry enough !!!

    I'm invited to bring the LM at Monterey, but I might do the "Run Of the Bulls" and get there with a Murcie...
    Take care
