    I just had a phone call from Tattersalls about the grand prix in Melbourne next year. They asked if they could put both my F40's in the Tattersalls tent, together, next year. This a good opportunity for anyone of you guys to have a close look at the differences between the road going F40 and the LM.
    In fact I might run a competition on this chat site and the winner goes with me as a passenger around the track on the sunday of the F1 race.

    what do you think?

    Sounds like an awesome idea - get some cash raised for charities in the process and it'll be a winner!!

    Gil,That is a generous offer on your part with something a bit different for the G.P.Would your competition be based on skill or luck....I have an I.Q. of a sheep!

    Mr.Moretti,I didn't start anything. I paid Gil a compliment on his gesture and asked a simple question (maybe a naive one) ,frankly as much as I would like a lap in a F40LM I couldn't care less, I would prefer to see someone more deserving enjoy the opportunity.Gil was good enough to take his car to Calder 2 years ago for a fund raising event for special kids where mugs like me could pay to experience that FERRARI feeling. That also answers your querie on what I drive...a LambCruiser with a dog in the back whose name is........RED!

    Calm down mate. If as you have said in another of your posts a few weeks ago you have been visiting FChat daily for the last 1.5yrs, surely you would realise we are a bunch of idiots who joke around?

    Nothing in here is ever serious (well mostly), and most of our discussions go off topic within about 2 replies. ;)

    it means I'm joking or having a laugh with ya .... you started with the sheep thing so ....... oh forget it, this is the Aussie section where you can normally have a laugh without fear of recriminations , friendly banter is what makes Oz so great.

    oh come on, I've caught Phil and you in the back seat of your F40 having a cuddle :D

    Why not get the F40 back and do what Gil is doing, it would be great and you love taking people for rides :)

    I'm not sure. Maybe something like..............write an story about your favourite Ferrari model and Why and the best one wins. (doesn't have to be an F40 story.

    *******. Do you guys run around with camers all the time or something. Great photo though, shame about the body (and I'm not talking the LM).
