    I did the East Coast Running of the Bulls which started at the Skytop Resort in the Pocono's and we did a road ralley for two days through the Appalacian Mountains and the Catskills on Thursday and Friday.
    The LeBelle Macchine was on Saturday and the awards show for the Ferrari's and Lambo clubs were on Sunday.
    Monday was a great day at the Poconos Raceway.
    Only got pulled over 3 times during the 2 day road rally! It was great to meet and dine with the Lamborghini Factory reps too!
    Enjoy a few pictures.....

    P.S.
    1. My Bull won 1st place for newer Lambo!
    2. The blue Lambo was actually owned by Donald Trump prior to this.
    3. The grey Lambo with Euro plates is the new 2009 LP560 Gallardo and that is one of the new test drivers for Lamborghini.

    Carlagio: Great pictures, thanks for posting. I took a three lap ride with Max in the LP560-4 on Sunday. Do you know the maximum speed that vehicle reached in the section through Turn 2 (was so excited at the end of the ride I forgot to ask).

    Great shots!

    The first of your Lambo with the two stone walls is out of this world awesome!

    My fav picture is the black Enzo on the track. Ok, it is a Maser in drag, but still.

    Pricy ticket I assume? How fast were you going? Or did they just want a closer look... as Dave said, an atomic bomb will attract that kind of attention :D

    Actually no tickets were issued all 3 times. The local cops in these small towns didn't appreciate a caravan of loud Lambos zipping through. Of course the green stricks out and I was the target. It was like going through Mayberry. I had a vision of getting halled into the local jail and being detained there till Monday morning when the local judge comes to town! On the second day of the run I opted for using my Nav and jumped onto the Expressway!

    Little towns survive by revenue generated from tickets. That is why so many people get tickets in small towns and especially if from out of state. I am sure the police were seeing $$$ driving by and want to stop you to see if all was in order. I see you had the front plate on. Probably a good move on your part.

    Did you hear about your Lambo brethren who did a similar run through my former home country? They lasted a couple of hours, then the police blocked the highway and took them out. Threw the drivers into jail and confiscated the vehicles for good. They turned it into a media frenzy and fined the drivers tens of thousands of Swiss Franks.

    I love the US! Happy 4th everyone!
