Thank you both for the rapid response !

 

Will there be dinner gatherings in Carmel this coming week?

 

No. There will not be any official FOG dinner sin Carmel / Monterey this year. Have fun down there.

 

It was a great weekend in Monterey until my car suffered an electrical failure on the way to dinner last evening. I had visions of being unable to participate in the track days and other events, and having to hitch a ride home.

But within minutes, it was SF Motorsports to the rescue! They flatbedded my car and gave us a lift to the Hyatt, where the FCA annual meet is taking place. This morning, they arranged for their ace tech, John Heim, to get my car onto a local facility's lift, diagnosed an alternator failure and had the car running and on the FCA display lawn by noon!

 

Update. By chance we later met John Bagioli at the Monterey Fish House (excellent food!). It turns out it's his shop that John Heim used for our repair! We thanked him profusely. Turns out maybe a half dozen cars had trouble today, including a recently restored Dino. His place is Forza Motors. If you ever have car trouble in Monterey (and no one from SF Motorsports is around!) he's your guy.

 

Darryl,
I believe T. Rutlands west coast is right next door to Forza Motors. I had a prolonged visit there two years ago when a friend's F430 would not start after Concorso Italiano at Laguna Seca Golf Ranch. Fortunately, our hotel was within walking distance from Forza Motors. They had a NART blue NART spyder up on a lift that they were preparing for Concours D'elegance when they were frantically trying to figure out what was wrong with the F430. I believe these guys were most adept at dealing with the vintage stuff. When they couldn't figure out the problem, they were trying to call John Heim to help them but could not reach him. Ultimately my buddy had to flatbed the F430 back to the Bay Area. You were fortunate that reliable John Heim is around and about and has a great relationship with Forza Motors. Cheers and be safe out there on the track.
