    Wow! Lots of cool Ferraris this year. The bad news is that I forgot my camera, so hopefully someone else will have some pictures.

    I brought the 365GT 2+2 out on Saturday (have to work on Sunday), and saw lots of interesting stuff: 275GTS, 330GTC, various 308/328s, TR... and a 412P!

    Is the 412P real? I assume it belongs to someone is Seattle, based on the transporter. Very cool, anyway!

    Also saw a Bentley Continental GT, a bit of a disappointment to my eyes, and a Porsche Carrera GT.

    The carrera GT did not make it to Pacific Raceways this year but I did get a chance to see it at the Historics in Napa, Ca back in June, pretty amazing car (for a Porsche that is!!!) Any FCA members take home trophies this year? Between Saturday and Sunday, we had four winners this year with 2 firsts and a second on Saturday and a 3rd on Sunday. Good times and looking forward to next years turnout!!!

    I was at Sundance putting a down payment on a 28' Carver so couldn't make it in the 308. I saw a bunch of 20's Ford's and other vintage racers, on Hayden Is. Drive this afternoon, real sorry I missed it.

    I made it out there today in the diablo (weather looked way too iffy on sat for me). I ended up parking with the subaru guys (great bunch of people) since I didnt register but there was a red dino, 4 308's (brown, yellow, two reds) and a red TR. Plus that maroon 250LM and 412

    Are you referring to the car that looked like a 250LM and was with the red 275GTS? That car was an Iso Daytona (I only know because I looked at it up close). Or was there a real 250LM there that I missed?

    I'm surprised that I have not got an answer on the vintage board about the 412P, I think it was 0854, owned by one of the McCaws. But, for all I know it could have been a replica.

    How about that Bentley? I did get to see that thing run, pretty cool! Too bad there was no one else remotely similar for him to run with.

    hey don,

    I missed that the 250 was really a 275, very sharp eye! The 412 was very puzzling indeed...but I dont think its one of the mccaws due to its oregon plates (!) I was shocked at first because I too was under the impression that its a mccaw car. Though something is itching at me in saying that its real! That GT looks way better in person than I expected! but HUGE! I wish I had been there to see him run... I would have gone up against it!
