    I'll be there Saturday only. Look for a dark grey 360 with Hoosiers and sport seats.

    After I sent the email out I didn't get any confirmations. I'll be at MSR Saturday testing the RX8 for a double regional the next weekend at TMS.

    Since I didn't make it when I worked for Mr. Risi, I decided I would crash this one. I'll be there both days. (Look for my Subaru.)

    Day one was great. My mother got to go for a ride in a 360, and I got to ride with Anthony Lazzarro (Risi Comp driver) in a 360 Challenge. Had a great ride. Weather is perfect, and should be just as nice tomorrow. Will post again when I get home tomorrow night or Monday morning.

    I have a ton, I am sizing down the batch. Anyone who was there can PM me for photos of their car, I shot many but am only posting uploading ~100-150 due to bandwidth issues.

    I took some pictures of the crew unloading it from the flatbed and pushing it into the pit to analyze. Sorry to hear about it :(

    I have some photos as well, just need to sort through them all and figure out where I'm going to host them.

    Was a great event, and aside from Ric catching fire, there were no major incidents to speak of. One older car appeared to have some minor mechanical issues at the end of the day on Saturday, but he managed to get in lots of laps before any issues surfaced.

    I'm really glad I drove down, and very thankful to those generous individuals who offered up a passenger seat. After the ride in the Challenge car on Saturday, only riding shotgun in one of the two Enzo's present could top the experience. Sunday provided exactly that opportunity.

    Thanks again to Ferrari of Houston for the event.

    I had a great time both days, but Sunday was best b/c I got instruction from Anthony and then he took me for some hot laps in the Challenge car. Really nice guy and an amazingly skilled driver. Oh so smooth!

    And thanks to Dan for the very generous ride in his Enzo.

    What a day!!

    Thanks to FoH for putting on another great event.

    308 (as mentioned) and I am unsure of the owner/driver. I didn't see it running very frequently. All of the extra panels were riveted on.

    Awww, cmon now Richard, ya gotta tell the good people what you told me the other day when you were leaving New Orleans and we met at waffle house. No, not the part where I ran over your 350 in my cousin's F250, but the part about the 'spirited' run in the Enzo ;)

    It was great seeing you post Katrina outside of our homeland, you were right, there was some weird **** to be seen in the city!

    The weirdest being when my cousin and I were literally THE ONLY PEOPLE(no joke, not another sould in sight) on Bourbon St. when we snuck out after the curfew. Amazingly we found a place that was open, but that's another story :D
