    Thanks Shawn, FCA DFW support staff, and the sponsors for a great event at Four Seasons. Great setting, great free food, free drinks, and great awards for no entry fee. Great selection of modern Ferraris and Lamborghinis.

    I wonder why I'm just hearing about this. Was this an imitation only thing? Looks like a great event!

    Seems like a lot of Lamborghinis for an FCA event?

    You're welcome as always. Wish we could have stuck around for the night as originally planned. Sounds like we missed a good after-party complete with good snacks and flashy sponsorship.

    FCA was lead on it, Lamborghini Club invited, event called Italian Connection. Last year event had all makes, this year just Ferrari and Lamborghini. Event maxed out, there were 10-20 cars on wait list.

    Careful what you wish for. That flashiness isn't as big of a deal as they want you to believe. :D

    It was a great event, and so glad Dale and I were able to attend !

    Got to park right there at Byron Nelson's circle, behind Rob's challenge car.

    The California was clean, but had no thoughts of winning anything, so I didn't even lower the top. To our surprise, we got 3rd place in the front- mid mount category. Must be good to have friends, so thanks to all. Very nice trophy gracing my desk at the office right now.

    Thanks to Shawn, Steve , and all those that worked tirelessly to plan and put on this fun event !

    I had no idea it was free to attend, as well as some great food put out by the Four Season's crew. Had a good visit with Paul Earnest, the golf pro there, who was wandering around wondering what he was looking at. Probably just now recuperating from putting on the golf tournament a month before.

    Sorry we missed the late night activities, but got to do dinner and late night pool cool off with our old neighbor's, M & Mrs Dryhole. Best part of the night was listening to John T. talk about racing the FXXK around the globe !
