    Changed the oil and gearbox fluid over the weekend. Getting her ready for some warm weather driving! I have to admit that it was a little intimidating to start working on a Ferrari for the first time. I'm convinced that a group of Italian engineers sat around a table to come up with the most complicated oil change possible! Plan to change all other fluids (brake, coolant, power steering, F1 pump) in the next couple of weeks. Feels good to be doing my own maintenance on the Scud and knowing that it was done meticulously.

    There is a Tdf blu 612, 6-speed for sale at Isringhausen. Maybe someone was test driving the one you saw?

    I must have waited too late to come, I didn't see your car. If you wouldn't mind, I'm sure everyone would love to see pics!

    Sorry, back in P-town now. Left SPFLD around 4:45.
    I'd post pics, but I don't even have an iPhone (still a razor). Exterior is r. berlinetta, cuoio and black interior, all CF interior (including cup holder) except door panels which have the exterior paint color trim ring, leather shelf with diamond stitching, and have tri-color stitching on bottom half of steering wheel and new style CF racing seats. Have polished forge option wheel with dark side sill, and corsa red calipers. Car came out as planned, the only thing I might possibly do differently is yellow calipers, but then I think that would take away from the wheels.

    I knew I should have gone by earlier, I just missed you. It sounds like an amazing car, the specs I would have chosen. Hopefully I will be able to see it sometime in the near future.

    Sounds great; they should post on here when the first event of the year is. I hope it is soon and there is a good turnout. Looking forward to seeing that beast!

    Saw a Black Rolls Royce Ghost on the interstate this morning and I believe it had Illinois plates. It was very nice looking, anyone know if it is from around here?

    I also went to race a 458 Italia today in STL if that counts!

    I would love a chance to see one in person, as I've adjusted to possibly owning one now that I can actually afford to buy a well maintained car. I live over in Normal and my wife likes to autocross her M3 Cab in peoria.

    Any members willing to do a cruise night or show me one of their vehicles. I would be happy to help out with any paint correction needs.

    I will post an introduction
