Been a while since I've posted in this forum, so I thought I'd draw up a recap of the fantastic FCA event in Toronto last weekend! I made the drive up to Toronto from Columbia, SC in a 348 Challenge car along with fellow f-chatter Juan Manuel Fantango. It was a pretty crazy drive, nearly 1000 miles each way in a Challenge car. Here are some photos of our drive up, as well as the concours at Eagle's Nest. The concourse was a lot of fun...weather was perfect, and I finally got to meet a lot of familiar names on f-chat...plus I was able to meet Pete Lovely. He had some crazy stories to tell!

Richard, As I mentioned in the other thread...your pictures are a work of art! I sure don't mind seeing them again. Bill
The next day we participated in the rally, a pleasant scenic tour of the countryside around Toronto. We started at Legendary Motor Cars where we were given a full tour of the museum and facilities. Their restoration facility is incredible, as are many of the works they have produced. We ended up in Niagra at the Vineland Estates Winery. They opened their entire facility to us as well as most of their stock for tasting Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
almost forgot...on the way out the door at LMC we met Peter from Dream Car Garage! He checked out the 348 Challenge, then proclaimed us crazy for driving it the whole way up Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
By the third day I was starting to run out of energy for photos...but the cars were just getting started. I managed to keep it together for most of the day There were a nice variety of cars at the track and no shortage of race cars. Hearing the 333 blast down the front and back straights was incredible, but seeing Pete Lovely pilot the TR59 was priceless...one of those singular moments you rarely catch a glimpse of as a Ferrari fan. I'm glad to have been there. After that, we headed home -- we had another 1000 mile drive ahead of us, and it turned out to be a bit more interesting than the first leg ;-) I'll be writing more about that soon.

GREAT SHOTS RICHARD! Would you mind telling us your setup? (filters, camera, lens) I love the sepia tone to it. Is that a filter?
