Hi & good morning gents, the date is 100% sure set: [size=+2] Ferrari Racing Days 2004 03.-05. September 2004 [/size] Got the info from the Ferrari-Club-Deutschland, Headquarter just a few minutes ago! The location is NOT 100% sure till today: Hockenheim? or Nürburgring? ...but only between those two locations! And once again: The date is firm! I have already called some friends from the Hockenheim Ring GmbH: "There is NO date set/reserved for the Racing Days!" That means nothing and all....who knows. Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI @Trevi, here you can go for your Swiss-FerrariChat.com-Meeting!
Thanks Wolfgang, Although I find it a bit strange that they have set a final date without a final location. But who cares! How many people will attend at the Ferrari Racing days? Ton
Ton, I agree, its strange but its absolut usaul for Ferrari and Germany. How many people? Don`t know, a few thousands has been there 2 years ago. Its the biggest Ferrari event in Germany and maybe in Europe `cause lots of F.-cars are coming from Germany, Swiss, France, Dutch....and all over euopr incl. some the U.K. drivers. Maybe taunus or Helmut knows how many f.-cars has been there? Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
Ton, sure and this event with all the organisation will be an affair of honour to me! I live just 2 miles away from the Hockenheim Ring (still not confirmed the location but just got a call....looks like HOCKENHEIM!!!!) I will take care of you, your Hotels, Garage, Tickets, Parking Ground and of course we will go to the famous NINO "Villa Modena" for a very, very -you will never forget- special italian dinner (ask Trevi & Simon!!!) Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
I want to go...very badly!!! Unfortunately I will have to coordinate holidays/plane tickets/hotels... hum, not very easy but let's see, I will try!
Garretto, NO problem with tickets and Hotel!!!!!! I`m working on it and will make arrangement for everybody! Its too early for Hotel reservation and tickets; but you can trust in me I will take care of you and all the other gents to make a great event. I will let you know all the details a.s.a.p....stay in touch about the Racing Days. Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
Hi part-time-visitor-trevi, hey whats up with you; too much too work or just skiing around in the beuatiful snowy white Swiss;-) Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
Trevi buddy, without you here....sometimes I feel like a "single combat" A day without fchat.....a lost & worthless day;-( Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
Wolfgang, I will more than likely go (either Nurburgring or Hockenheim). Where is the best place (if it is Hockenheim) for me to camp (caravan)? Hope we can meet, and others. Joop
Hello Joop, Hockenheim is very easy. Just in front of the main tribune (outside of course;-) is a biiiiig camping ground for cheap money...with toiletts, wash room and a lots of booth with food & drinks. Go here for a closer look: http://www.hockenheimring.de/old/de/fakten/motodrom.html The camping ground is the green area just in front of the "red" lined "6" CU soon Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
Hi all, actually back from seasonal holiday out of Austria. Instead of Trevi I have had many fun by skiing downhill ;-) I'm glad to read that our trip to switzerland in August can come because of latest update of the racing days (in September). I have had a call with my favorite garage a few minutes ago. All of the damages of my F 328 has been repaired by the specialists of R.F. The only hard stuff is the price but i know each eurocent is worth it ;-) So to all of you - a happy new year and allways health drive with your baby ;-) With red wishes Uwe Ricken
Hi Uwe, good to CU well back from your vacation. Hope you and your family are doing well. About the reapir / prices 328: Do you want to talk to/with me? I truly understand you. Yes, I`m used in high and higher repair prices since I bought the testa;-) But you hit the target: It worth it!!!!! What has been done/repaired????? I have already signed in for Friday, 30. January, Egelsbach FCD meeting. Will be there 100% sure....my christmas gift pleeeease don`t forget me;-) CU soon Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
Hi Wolfgang, nice to "read" you. I'm very sorry but I can not come to Egelsbach at 30/01/2004 because of another business event in Frankfurt. But maybe you will find the time before Egelsbach to visit me in my office. ;-) The price for the repair is nearby 3.500,00 and R.F. has sent me a fax with the detailed repairs of my car: - high pressure conduction for the clima control - clima control freezing medium - annual inspection (Oil, air filter, etc) - brake disks and brake blocks - new batterie because of an leak in one cylinder - new wheel spaces (Goodwill of Heiko - Thank you very much, Heiko!) - clack in driver door Many spare parts, etc, etc ;-) I'm very sure that my car is now in best condition for the coming season. PS: Did you recieve the mail of Harry? With red wishes Uwe Ricken
Hi Uwe, yep, got the same mail a few minutes ago...with the 355 car-wash;-))) I laready answered Harry and gave him some dates for our meeting. I`m serious looking forward to meet you and Harry this month...just got also your mail;-) Well, here we go just advice me time and place for our meeting. Sadly to hear that you can`t go for the FCD on Friday;-(((( Maybe at the Harry, Uwe, Wolfgang meeting....the christmas gift? For sure you have the best 328 of the whole world after the R.F. inspection!!! Normal and usual price for the big inspection. Trippel your price....and thats what I have payed in December for my testa....and DAMN, YES IT WORTH IT. Uwe, you MUST see & hear my beast!!!!! Give me call for the meeting....copy of my mail to Harry is on the way to you. Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
that's about what happens at least 2 times a season to me! regular business ok, i do not have to fix the AC, because i don't use it however, welcome back and a successful new year!
Hi Trevi, nice to "read" you. The problem with the AC is known for more than 2 years but I did not have repaired it because of no needs. Actually I hope my wife will drive with me (hope dies last ;-)). Therefore she needs AC because she don't like driving with open roof ... I wish you too a happy new year and much success in private and business. I'm glad to see you again in August in Switzerland. WIth red wishes Uwe Ricken
Uwe, so go and buy a TESTAROSSA and your wife will be happy and amazed!!!!! -No open roof! -Best working A/C thats true - realy better than 308/328!!! Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
Hi Wolfgang, to buy a Testa will cause me my loosinig my scullcap ;-) I'm pretty sure that Bea will much more favorite drving without roof than me driving without scullcap I've recieved an email from Harry. He has confirmed our date at 19/01/2004 19:00. I'm glad to see you both on Monday. With red wishes Uwe Ricken
@Uwe, me too, got the same mail & confirmation. Thats great and I`m looking forward for a wonderful evening with some old friends;-) About Bea & Testarossa: Got the same problem with Anja, when I decided to buy the testa. She is realy in love with the open roof and don`t want to miss it. Lots of discussion about the missing open roof in the testa. On her first ride on the passenger seat in the testa.....she was getting quiter and quiter and it was very silent when we crossed the first time the 300km/h No more discussion! And after she droves herself the first time the testa on the road, she was highly delighted about the never ending power & sound....no more missing of the targa roof! Should I invide Bea for a test drive? Wolfarossa FORZA FERRARI
