    I bought a Ferrari from Joe in the early 80s and sold it back to him almost 5 years later. He was a perfect gentleman on both transactions.

    Bump.......and looks like I'll be without a copilot. I may try and mount a camera in the car and see if I can tape a part of my drive.

    Karen and I regsitered. Looking forward to it.

    Unfortunately it falls once again on a GP Sunday. So I'm hoping Speed TV airs the race live and it won't be shown tape delayed during the event. There is nothing worse than watching a race with a bunch of Tifosi. ;)

    Arrgh. Just like last year. :(

    They have a big TV right over the buffet. I was trying so hard not to see and hear (I was humming the National anthem to myself just to block the commentary) that. Yet at our table people were (naturally) discussing what they saw on the picture.

    <sigh>

    There is a presentation at 12 noon, so I suspect things are over at that point.

    I'll be heading down at about 8:45-9am. Should take me 30 minutes to arrive (29 miles) and nearly all highway.

    You must have gotten there really late, I stuck around waiting for you for a while. :)

    Anyway, I'll post up my photos soon. Very nice event!

    Sorry to have missed it, I couldnt make the brunch. My garage is only a few blocks from there so I swung by around 1pm in my 250GTE but everyone had already left. Next time!

    The yellow 275 in the photos is a 275GTB/4, s/n 10991, one of the last few 4 cams made. The 4 cams had the horse on the trunk, hood buldge, and outside trunk hinges, where most of the 2 cam cars did not.
