    Join fellow Ferrari enthusiasts for our first Top Speed Saturday at Ferrari of Atlanta. We start this Saturday, at 9am and will host cars and fellow Ferraristi here until 1pm, or when it's over. A food truck, tech talk by Thomas McKellar, F1 rebroadcast and some pretty red cars will be part of the days festivities. Bring your Ferrari and enjoy your Saturday FoA style.

    I've already RSVP'ed. The chance of thunderstorms goes up sharply after 1 PM, so it's a good thing you're starting early.

    Had my 3 year old with me so left the 458 at home but weather was great, nice display of cars, good parking, and not crowded. Well done.

    Inside the building, a couple of the supercars had been brought up from downstairs, and a racing simulator was available for use. Harold was running the boutique for anyone who wanted to buy. Out front their latest Challenge car was on display.

    A few of the Ferraris that people displayed, including my own, and a nice Jaguar. Brian Willis brought his Formula Continental racer. Does anyone know the name of the cream color on the 458 in the 4th photo? It reminds me of the interior color my 328 had when I first bought the car!

    HI Jim, thanks for your photos and for spending your morning with us. Great turnout for a first time event so we will continue to do these through the Fall and then again in the Spring on the second Saturday of the month. We appreciate all the support we got from the local car crowd. We had some people come all the way from Alabama and Mississippi. That was a neat surprise!

    I had mentioned the event on the Carolinas forum, but they had their big event at the Biltmore this weekend. Maybe next month?

    Actually, I was at that event as a sponsor. We were spread a little thin this weekend so I am very proud of our team for making Top Speed Saturday a winner. Biltmore was fun and the collection was, as always very special.

    The crepes vendor was excellent, but I think they cheated themselves out of some lunch business by only listing breakfast crepes on their board. They had a lunch selection; I had a very good turkey, swiss & ranch crepe. Two food vendors, one of which can serve breakfast, is probably the right number.

    Good to know. We will probably change it up next month to keep the food interesting.

    Two of my favorite local food trucks are Flatbread Bistro and The French Truck. You can probably find them via a web search.
