    Are we going to start counting down the days. I can hardly wait to get on the road to Florida. It will be well worth the 20+ hour drive to watch the 458 whoop the Vette (Fingers crossed)

    I looked it up once and I found that the bbs aluminum forged monobloc RE wheels are about $8k. Unless, you are talking about magnesium ones then I don't know, maybe $15k for those.

    Sebring is just a couple of weeks away. Make sure to check out the ALMS VIP package that Ferrari North America is offering -- takes you inside the Risi Competizione operation at the track. Great view of race, great food and lost of Ferrari enthusiasts to talk to. http://ferrarievent.com/alms

    Guys I can't wait, this will be my first time at Sebring. I think Risi is still upset about what happened at Petit Le Mans and they're gonna let the fury out of those brand spanking new 458s. I like Extreme Speed as well and they've got an absolutely gorgeous car this year. Also, I checked out the Sebring entry list today and I saw that AF Corse and Luxury Racing are each going to be racing a 458 Italia. I want Risi Competizione to win so badly, but honestly all I care is that a Ferrari beats those nasty UAW Corvettes. This is going to be epic!

    Heres the 12 Hours of Sebring entry list:

    Risi Comp will remain well composed as always and run their usual race. They are a very professional team and Giuseppe keeps them under control. He is a very soft spoken man of few words who measures what he says so as not to be misinterpreted. If you take the package and get inside the Risi Comp area do it. You will see how a real class organization does things.........

    Yeah unfortunately I cannot afford the package, but I will be there just the same! I could have watched the Risi guys in the pits all day long at Petit Le Mans. It was so interesting to see everything that goes on in the pits. Giuseppe Risi sits in the box the whole time, and never leaves his post! True dedication to his passion, and he seems like such a nice guy.

    The Ferrari package for Sebring was a helluva deal at $675 or whatever it is - we used to pay $200 or $250 for the Audi hospitality.

    Flew in to Florida a couple days ago. Headed to the big race tomorrow. If anyone wants to donate a couple of complimentary VIP FNA tickets I won't turn you down :) I'll be sure to take a lot of pics.

    Great race even though the BMW's beat out Ferrari. Great view from the Michelin VIP suite above pit row with great food. I'll get some pics posted later.
