    Saw a sign and decided to go check it out this last sunday. what an incredible disapointment will never return and strongky advise not to waste your time or money. $8 pp to enter $5 parking ticket then youcan't spend dollars on food you have to go buy silly tickets and spend silly tickets on food what a silly proposition to top it all off, nothing interesting to see other than some nice cars
    Makes me value more and more and more the Ferrari Festivel on Westhimer the exact opposite great attractions wonderfull cars great food and all free to the public

    As we spoke this morning, there IS no Ferrari Festival for 2016.

    Will know more, after I speak to Franco.

    FCA is planning to do something 2017, in the Woodlands.
    This year there was not time, per discussion last night.

    Shortly after last year's Ferrari Festival, I bumped into Franco at FoH. He commented the crowd was "at bit to manage" that something will change.

    It's over, at Highland Village.

    Franco did a lot of great work.

    Set the bar very high, IMO.
    I have some work for him, I will deliver that in person!

    Is this a cryptic message or do the masses know what this means.

    Wow, sad to hear. Was going to drive down from DFW for it. Hopefully the 2017 event will materialize.

    At least I'll have something to actually show for at the Ferrari Festival, so I'm glad it's next year

    Well, a brief discussion of the budget, and the search for new sponsors, was not encouraging.

    Franco bankrolled the Highland event, and the vendors also contributed.
    Funds raised went to the Medical Charity.

    FCA envisions something totally different.
    And not so "public".....

    I always liked talking to "the public", myself.....
    :D :D :D
