    Back in 2000, I had this amazingly fun F355 challenge which i raced locally in some club events and various track days. I sold that over a decade ago, and have now, after a long haitus, decided to jump back in... well, maybe just to some track days!

    Ferrari of Seattle was able to procure the 458 challenge evoluzione from the corso pilota school operated by FNA. Nick Longhi says of this car: "... spring of 2016 ... we started using it in our Corso Pilota Evo and Challenge schools. The last time I drove it was in March at CotA, ... I have always liked that car, it has served us very well."

    Now, I need to upgrade my old Snell 2000 helmet. (And, of course make sure it feels right when I put this car on!) Yay, fun times ahead!

    (P.S. The oil leak will be fixed.)

    Nice work! Bummed to be missing COTA but I'll be there in Sept. Be prepared for COTA to chew through tires. Also, looks like you picked up the helmet I recommended. :)
