    If you have not rec'd the email sent out by Dave Scott, we are having a Hill Country Chapter Technical Session next week at my shop....."Moorespeed/Mooresports" Tuesday 2/8 beginning at 6:30 PM.

    Dave and I have been talking about a topic on suspension and ride height. However, it occurs to me we've already talked about that.

    So, what do you guys want to talk about?????....oops....gals too ;-). It does not have to be "performance" oriented. I've got a couple QVs, a Mondial, a 355, and a 355 Challenge car in the shop right now that we could use to demonstrate. Or we can use Dave Scott's 550 or someone elses car.

    Send me a note here or to my email if you have any suggestions or something that's been bugging you about your Ferrari and have not quite been able to put a finger on it.

    I surely hope the weather holds out as I really would like everyone to show up in their Ferrari's......I know there are some new toys out there we'd all like to see.

    BTW, if you have not RSVP'd and plan to attend, please email me at [email protected] or give me a call at the shop 512.474.7223.

    You guys from SA, Houston, Dallas/Ft.worth and anybody else in town are surely welcome.

    WHAT Randy with no camera?!?! WTFO?

    I'm still nervous about jacking the car up. If you could, David, show us again the safe points/locations for jacking. Maybe a group Q&A too. Questions we can ask out loud and be answered by you or fellow F owners, "What kind of leather treatment do you use?", "Is there a muffler shop in town you trust?", etc.

    How about a review of the things you should do before taking your car to the track, cool down procedures after runs, things to check between runs, and after your track days is over... in my case trailering your car home because it broke down and rebuidling the engine :(

    I thought we'd have the girls from Sugars over for a calendar spread on your 550.

    I have a few things up my sleeve....all suspension, maintenance, performance oriented.

    The 550 may or may not be there.. It is at San Antonio getting its electronic gremlins fixed.

    Al, Sott will go through and reduce the size of the images he shot. Otherwise, my cell phone cam will not do justice, especially the shots of the engine out Lola.

    Thanks again David for another great event!

    Sorry I had to miss - last minute conflict.

    Dave you Euro 308 looks very sweet, those 360 wheels are just right for the car.

    Oh my gosh!!!! Verry verry friggin COOL! The 360 wheels make that car look MUCH more modern! If it were my car, I would probably get the rocker panel painted red too, but I'm just thinking to myself out loud. VERY NICE!!!!!
