Hey sorry I missed it everybody, I had no idea~ Somebody hit up my cell next time. Lets do something again soon before the bad weather comes back. I was at Ben's the yesterday, (just a new battery) glad I didnt see a White F430 Spider still hanging out in there! See you guys soon
My car's at Ben's for the moment - I did a small number on the soft top on New Year's Eve (note to self for the future: don't try to put the top up before the car's warm!). We look forward to having you at the next drinks/meet/drive, Pierre! Let's get together more often, shall we, gents?
Absolutely! Just as soon as we have a date for our first run. Knowing that the 8th is a FOG drive weekend (making the 22nd a FOG weekend as well, most likely, unless they move it due to the Delta Dash which is the same day), and the 15th is an FCA Tech Session (lookin' forward to that, BTW... are you guys comin'?), I think our first outing should be Jan. 29th, if that works for you gentlemen. As soon as we know when we're getting started, I'll post the thread here and in the LotusTalk forums. Do any of you post on the Lambo area/forums? If not, I'll contact a Lambo/Ferrari owner I know in the area, and ask if he'll get us going on his boards...
Yes lets start our own regular Drive, that would be great. Sorry to hear about your top (@ Ben's), did you see the replica 356 Cab there? Wow, what a great looking car! I have the FCA tech Session on the Calendar and I think I should be able to make it. I have never been to a FOG drive, maybe we could caravan out to one? Side note: Hawks is great, and in the summer when the nights are warmer, I have been known to have a cigar on their back porch, by the river. Not a bad way to live.. Hope to see you guys soon. PR
Great! Let me get some dinner in me, and I'll start our "official" thread for FerrariChat after that. Pierre, I did briefly see the 356 replica there. My wife would have drooled over it (had she seen it!). We love those cars. And most definitely, I'd love to caravan out to another FOG drive real soon. I can't make the one this weekend, and the next'll be during the Delta Dash, but February, let's start the "exchange program"! OP
I'll be in for a drive ! I head back to sea on the 31st, so the 29th just in time !! Great roads here too !!
Willie B! Didn't know you were back in town. Looking forward to hearing about your last trip on the 29th! Is Laurie (Lori?) coming with you? Add a line for yourself in the other thread so I can try to get a head count for lunch (not that we've chosen a location for it yet... or a drive route!) Happy Belated Holidays and New Year to you both! See you soon! OP
Docked under cover of darkness .... See you on 29th !! Lorie is ready as well ! All the best to you and C!
Delta Dash was great today. With this nice weather I'm going to get a little more car time this weekend and hit Euro sun at the Pavilions at 8 AM tomorrow. See you guys there if you can make it. Dave
I may be joining you next weekend. I am in the process of changing over the stud nuts on the bell housing, as well as the oil and transmission pan to acorn nuts. I am also cleaning 24 years of crud from the underside of the frame/engine. I have one small oil leak that is being very elusive on the passenger side front bank under the A/C compressor that is producing some slight smoke for a few minutes after a drive. I thought I solved it after performing a timing belt/tensioner and seal change. If I get this all sorted by next weekend I will meet up with you fellas. If not, I will catch you on the next one.
There's an FCA member who came on the Jackson drive who had, if I recall correctly, a dark red over red interior California. Perhaps it's the same one?
Just saw him driving the opposite direction. It was red and beautiful if that helps Looked to be 35-45yo
This is a great event , this year on the weekend of April 30 and May 1. I'd recommend caravaning down. Dave B.
Putting it (Ferrari Challenge @ Infineon) on my calendar, so I won't forget. Consider the caravan to have at least two cars, confirmed, Dave!
