    Steve, sounds like you did a great job making the best of the situation.... For a few years I laid out the FCA car show field and that was a big challenge WITHOUT having weather issues or competing events, and not giving much thought to the type of Ferraris to be shown.

    What you were trying to accomplish was ambitious and important to the FCA club and the enthusiast community in DFW and all corners of the Ferrari world. Nice work.

    What a great event! Despite not many people showing up due to the weather, it was still a good turnout and I'm sure everyone there had some fun. I know I did!
    Big thank you to Steve, both Dons, and everyone else who made it happen.

    Thank you everyone for the kind words. This is the first time I have had enough energy to get on F-Chat since Sunday morning. It was so disheartening to have four months of planning spoiled by a few rain showers. We did our best to accommodate everyone coming from all parts of the Metroplex and thankfully with a huge effort from the Ferrari community we were able to get our photo sessions accomplished.

    A huge "Thank You" to the Boardwalk Auto Group and all their employees for hosting such an incredible event Saturday night. They were so gracious in opening up their facility to all those that brought there cars Saturday night with the knowledge of the impending rain. I think we had every possible inside spot taken up with cars for the photo shoot. Then the scramble to get cars in and out between rain storms. I had the opportunity to be up on the roof for the photo's and really look forward to the completed version.

    Lastly and most importantly, to the brave souls that ventured through the rain to go to Ronald McDonald House Sunday afternoon, I hope your experience was as fulfilling as mine. The smiles on the kids' faces made every bit of work and planning all worth while. I overheard one parent talking about how it was the first time she had seen her child smile in weeks and another parent tell her child about bragging rights he had over his big brother because he got to sit in a Ferrari! It was a fantastic day and I now wish I could have only done more.

    Again, thank you everyone who participated and made this special event possible. Who knows... maybe we'll try it again sometime. But it won't be anytime soon.
