Had a blast!!!!! Thanks to Vince and his wife for hosting. Seeing old friends meeting new ones. What a great group
Thanks to Vince for having us today. It was great to finally put some faces to these screen names. Nice meeting all of you and looking forward to the next one!
What a fabulous day and thanks to Vince and his wife Barbara for their hospitality. Vince provided chicken wings and breasts and steak all of which were barbecued and then onions and bell peppers which were cooked and a host of other goodies. The Brothers and some wifes brought cheese cake, cookies and pies and some other delights to eat. And of course beer and cokes to drink. . I am not sure how many Ferraries were there but over 10 and probably close to 20 people. It was truely a lot of fun and I think everyone had a great time and got some work done on their cars. WELL DONE VINCE.
+1 Absolutely a fun time great to meet new people. Bruce... as you know it drizzled and rained lightly up the hill. I got home and in typical Vince style I wiped down the 550 to make sure there would be no water spots since I'm a waxer now.
Thanks for hosting it Vince. Nice seeing everyone. We had fun turning wrenches, eating food, drinking beer, eating more food, drinking more beer, turning wrenches, drinking more beer.......... You guys that didn't make it, see you on the next one.

Did you guys discriminate against the 348s? Not a single picture of the 348 around, all 355. There must have been a run on the hair gel store near by.
A few more pics. Total 15 cars I think.... Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Wow, I have not yet recovered. Not sure what hurts most, the hangover or the achy muscles. What a great day! Thank you for all who came and those who helped out - actually that would be just about everybody. Big shout out to those food and beverage contributors - lol again everybody. I have enough food left over for another shindig. Oh man I can't recall al the menu items. Barbara looked at the fridge today and said it looked like the day after Thanksgiving. Let's see, here are some stats: 1. We have just about 20 people including a few wives and one child, well, 2 if you count Ernie. 2. Car count was 3 348's, 2 550's, 1 Mondial (I think Mike drove his car but I didn't see it) and lots of 355's. I thnk we had 5 Spiders, 1 Berlinetta and a GTS. And not a single F1 car! (Disclaimer: didn't see Craig's interior so cannot say for sure.) 3. Food consumed - about 5 lbs of wings, 3 lbs of carne asada, 5 lbs of pollo asada and a boat load of fixings. More deserts than I could count (I swear it looked like a desert cart on a cruise ship) 4. Cars worked on - 5 5. Hours of fun - about 10 (for me ) 6. Beer consumed - not enough cuz I got too many bottles left over! FBB special TY for the grill action. Ernie, thanks for borrowing your neighbor's car to make that drive. Bruce for the parts, support and setting up - oh yeah, and the Ferrari silk flag. Goth and FBB for carefully attending to Ketel's car. I'm wondering how that turned out. Sure sounded better when he left the house at like 8PM. Gayle for helping Barbara in the kitchen on prep. Vince

Ketel, how did it end up with your car? How many of the CL's were cleared? It was sounding better when I left.
Yes I am very curious, we had everyone on that thing. So many smart folk from different disciplines it was really close when I had to leave.
