Is this open to the public? I live close by, and would like to stop in.

Maybe to let the nice officer catch up. You know, give him a sporting chance.

Enzo and an F40 in the span of about 3 minutes tonight. The Enzo was at Mercy with a Risi Competizione windshield header. The F40 was turning east on to Beltline from the Tollway.

I don't know that I'd drive an enzo on the tollway during the day. People drive like rejects around Beltline to LBJ. Though I wish I was there this afternoon to see them. LOL

Please add to this list 2 more Bentleys (GT's), a Murcielago, RR Phantom, 2 older model RR, and countless lesser models.

It was great to talk with the owners of the Murci and the Elise for quite a while. A long, but fun night overall.

Robert, you could have stopped by. I was working the front door, I would have let you in. They weren't checking invites anyways. Anytime you need something, just come let me know. Sorry I couldn't get back to you.....I had class and then work. Please feel free to stop by and ask. Always do what I can to help.

Joshua, I was looking for you up front but then all of the sudden my drink got empty and I had to go fill it.

It was a pretty crazy night, 3,000 people.

That's alright...and the count was closer to 4,000!! Craziness. Yea....I ran the shuttle for the catering crew after everything was over. They were saying how busy the bars were. I guess that's what happens when there's open bars.

I forgot these spots from yesterday: black Maserati GranSport, navy blue Maserati coupe, and black AM DB9 that sounded incredible!!

Add a white Maserati QP to that. I was working both nights of the party for the valet company, mostly parking the high end rides up front. I actually met you (Josh) at one point but at the time I didn't realize you were the same Josh on this website.

No way!! I was looking for nametags...but never saw an Evan. we'll have to try to officially "meet" next time. You guys did a great job. I can't imagine parking over 700 cars.

Red 355 Spider heading East on 635 near the Airport Saturday. Probably Nick or Phil heading home from the car fest.

If it was around 12:30 it was probably me with Smitty driving. We walked up to the show just after the wreck, and helped push the Osca up on it's trailer. What a sad sight. A friend of mine's dad had an Osca in the early Dallas days, Lloyd Wolfe. Does anyone know if this car is a local car?
