    I know that everyone who attended this weekend's national Fchat meeting in Vegas thank Wynn Penske for hosting us twice after hours for private meetings.

    When the service manager, Rich Kansky, found out about our event in his city, he immediately volunteered his shop to us. Here's some photos of those who missed out.

    Saturday was particularly special as Master Ferrari Technician Kevin Taylor -- with 40 years of Ferrari experience -- gave everyone a great presentation on the inner workings and technology of the F1 gearbox. I'll be honest, I thought I knew a lot about it but I learned a ton. Its a lot less of a mystery how it works now and how the new 458 and California have stepped up the game in gearbox design.

    So, thanks again to all the Penske mechanics, management, and personnel who gave their day off to help us understand and appreciate our machines better! (thanks also to Jedi for the excellent photos!)

    Now I want to thank Rich and Penske Wynn Ferrari myself for a private tour! A certain FChat mod got married Thursday night and a group of us in town hooked up with Rich for a tour. Everyone was very nice and the facilities are top notch. Thank you!
