    Nice turnout. Lots of F-Cars, a few Lambos, etc, etc. Lots of great stuff.

    I felt a bit stupid though. I went by myself and didn't know anyone there. Didn't know what any of the F-chatters looked like either, so I just sort of wandered around by myself looking dorky.

    Oh, well. Maybe I'll meet some of you guys under more conttrolled circumstances.

    I'll tell you one thing though, it helped me get ALOT closer to pulling the trigger on a 348 TS. I was sitting on a curb looking at an absolutely georgeous red 448 TS Challenge when the owner (didn't catch is name, he was a young asian guy) drove off in it. Sounded awsome, looked awsome.

    Nice weather too.

    Hi Josh. I was not there, but glad you could make it. Next time, let us know you will be going and arrange to meet up with f chatters. We are a friendly bunch, and will be happy to meet and greet.

    I was at the WWoC with my two sons, we ran up with Greg & his dad.
    It was wonderful seeing all those Ferrari at the same time.
    We counted 80+ Ferrari at one time, with cars coming & leaving constantly.
    (2) Enzo, (3) Diablo, (1) Countach, (1) Pantera, (1) GT40, a 330, The QuattroPorte and the list went on!
    Don't think I've ever seen so many Mondials at one time! Mondial, 3.2, T...I counted 7! Quite a few 328, 360....seemed the 355s were underrepresented.

    Very nice event. I do have pictures if anyone is interested, I'll post some

    Tom,

    Damn, I heard him say goodbye to you. So close and yet so far to meeting some f-chatters.

    Next time perhaps.

    P.S. - I thought for sure my autographed Micheal Shumacher hat would attract at least one question or comment, but sadly, none.

    Tom, I've been wanting to meet you. Your Mondial was there?
    Funny, I was there as Ken left as well! Dang.

    I think it's time for "Ferrari Chat" t-shirts so we can all know each other

    How about that? You've been immortalized :)
    Next time, you have to wave to the camera :)

    That was one of two GT4s I saw. Very nice.
    I really liked the cream color.

    Clyde ! I thought you'd never go to WWoC again ? T-shirts are a great idea. Now who's going to design them ? I'm most definitely artistically challenged.

    we didn't meet any f-chatters either, but next time t-shirts or secret hand signals are a great idea.

    my son and i voted and our favs of the day were:
    - black daytona
    - red boxer
    - red/black 550 barchetta
    - yellow enzo

    Sorry I missed most of the fun.

    Josh, got there about 2:20. Just missed Hutch as well. Bruce couldn't make it.

    I couldn't get up there any sooner so all the food was gone, Jim Murphy said it went fast anyway. The best part is that the 328 worked beautifully.

    Ken, sorry I missed you as well. Next time.

    Clyde, thanks for posting pictures, I forgot my camera as well. We got there just as the owner was pulling the yellow Enzo out, what a sound that thing makes. Very nice.

    Regards,
    This summer we need to get together.

    John

    Anybody know who owned the Black Mondial that arrived on the Flat-Bed about 1:00ish? I guess that's one way to make it to the party :)

    I know one guy blew his clutch on the way up. I don't know if it was a Mondial. He happens to live by Benny, whom he had never met; Benny agreed to give him a ride back home in the yellow Enzo. I think the guy was happy to have blown his clutch ;)
