    What an incredible event!

    I've been to a lot of events and I've driven all over the World but this event and the roads Chris and his Team found for us were truely amazing.

    The People on the Rally were so nice and friendly and the people we met along the way were fantastic. The Roads are the best roads I've ever driven anywhere. The Twisties are beyond twisty and the sweepers were very special.

    Ferrari of Denver, FML, Ferrari Chat and all of the Sponsors threw great parties and Dinners and Justin Bell was wonderful to have along, very funny and a Great speaker.

    The Best part for me was Chris. He is really funny, an amazing host and really makes you feel part of his family.

    Many photo's will follow and you'll see what I'm talking about.

    The final night at Alice Walton's Chrystal Bridges Museum is something that I'll never forget. The Museum's buildings and collection are absolutely World Class and are as impressive as any Museum in NY, London, Paris, Rome or Madrid.

    It was great meeting a lot of Ferrari Chatters and Meg and I had a very wonderful time.

    We will definitely come next year.

    This is an incredible chance to drive your car on incredible roads and should not be missed!!!!!!!!!

    I just got home from one of the best weeks of my life. Crescent Classic just seems to get better and better each year and this year was no exception!

    I got to see all of my returning friends to Crescent Classic, and I got to make several new friends!

    We had such an incredible selection of cars this year, and I know next year will be even better! (Impossible?)

    I was so happy to spend time with Jim and Meg (Meg is hilarious!) . Jim and I have known each other for nearly 10 years, but the time we spent at Crescent Classic allows both of us to call each other a friend, I could not be happier or prouder.

    Its been a long day, still have a couple of trucks to unload, thank you everyone, Crescent Classic was a blast!

    I have been to all but the first Crescent. This was truly the best one!!! Not because I won some new Michelins for my 355, but because of the new friends I met and the best roads ever! Can't believe they can get better, but I know Chris, Doug and Scott will some how up it next year.
    Jim, I can't wait to see your pics. It was great meeting and talking with you. Next year will not come fast enough.

    And how they were driven!!!! The roads were extremely challenging even to those who are accomplished drivers. I think we end up putting on over 600 mile on both the GT40 and the Porsche. It was great to cars like the Luso and P 4/5 driven the entire ralley and driven very well!!

    Thanks to Chris, Scott, Doug, and al the sponsors. Another most exceplent event.

    Sounds like an incredible time was had by all! Bill and Phyllis Stewart told me this morning that they always enjoy the Crescent Classic but this year was easily the best yet!

    I've already begun to lobby for my inclusion in next years shenanigans ;)

    Derek,

    I will vote for you to come! This year was incredible, but we have a few ideas for Crescent Classic 2013!

    Better start packing!

    I was lobbying for you Derek! Jody(i?) and I were both saying how you needed to make it out. I missed Mark too, although I usually only see Mark 1-2 am downtown. :D

    I too am fortunate enough to be a regular at Crescent. This was my 7th year in a row and the event gets better and better each year. Another great job Chris, and your rally crew did an unbelievable job with the drives. Friday morning was my favorite drive with the hills and sweeping turns. Friday nights Disco Party was awesome. Natasha, I and the boys had a great time all week and appreciate all your work to make this possible. A special thanks goes out to Steve for selling me the Stradale. I still can't believe this beauty is mine. You have helped make my dream come true and I greatly appreciate it. The car performed perfectly on the drives and made my Crescent 2012 outstanding. It was great partying with some new and old friends. Can't wait for next year.

    While I only made it for one day, it was a blast. What a great group of cars and owners. Chris puts everything he has into this event - and it shows. I am absolutely, positively, without-a-doubt, going next year. Not sure which car to bring however....

    Happy to oblige. I was fortunate to enjoy the car for a few years and am happy to see it go to a good home. I hope it treats you well for many years to come.

    Larry, Brian and others, great pics. Thanks for posting.

    has anyone associated to FCA KC actually kept the same car for more than 2 years!?! :D Chris hasn't been bad lately, but you have to remember the Daytona - F40 run. Scott is like me and never sells, I guess will never loan out anymore either. :eek:
