    I have heard from the car fairies that there will be some outstanding historic F-1 cars to be seen.

    So my CS is arriving at some point on Saturday. Would not surprise me if it was early morning...my question is...should I just drive it over there and attempt to join the display mid-morning, or will it be too late to gracefully arrive and park in the appropriate spot?(sorry, if this question sounds dumb, I've never done anything like display a car before).

    I am guessing that if you are not there before about 8:45AM, you are not going to get a display parking spot!

    Now THAT is a car show!

    It was great seeing everyone, and their spectacular cars.

    THE F1 Ferrari that broke the Scuderia's losing streak, taking Gerhard Burger to the top step of the podium at Brazil in 1988........ the very next race after Enzo died was there, for those that don't know that car's history.

    Pair that with the pontoon TR, a Maserati 8C, good friends, a stunning venue, more great cars and you have the right recipe for a proper event.

    Thanks to everyone who came out to help the 100 club. Now where are those pictures from our great photographers? :D

    Video of the F1/87.

    It's not the best of quality though. Includes the description the guy gave at the beginning and then the startup and the revs.

    Well, I clearly had to leave far to early. :( Missed out on a couple great cars, apparently. And really wish I could've stayed around and chatted with a lot of different people, but I only had about 20 minutes before I had to take off. Still a great turn out and great to see some people I haven't seen in months or more.
