    I guess that spotting a Ferrari in The Green Mountain state is not that common.

    Cheers,

    It's actually more common than you think. The roads here are the most like Europes anywhere in the States. The one drawback is the weather but the weather is worse (at least colder) in Montreal. Besides with Montreal so close it's easy to take the cars in. This weekend is the FCA/New england meet here in Stowe.
    I also see pleinty of Montrealers bring their F-cars down :)

    At this time of the year i see very few, but there is a GREAT Ferrari meet on Church Street in June. I didn't go last year but the year before there was a Yellow Enzo (the only one i've seen here in the states) All told the meet had about 20 cars or so mostly classic.

    This weekend is the FCA/New England?!!! I'm there. See you saturday!!!

    I'm not sure what was in Stowe, but there were a few Ferrari's there for some get together. 575, 550, Testarossa, 360, Porsche GT3 great stuff. the weather was terrible, though.

    Speedracer38 is that Enzo in your name the same one that was in Vermont a few years ago??

    Really? That's a surprise to me, because I'm actually typing this in Stowe, VT, where I organized the FCA/NER Vt Ramble weekend. :)

    Dan360 is up here, along with a couple of other FChatters. We've got three 550s, a pair of TRs, a Stradale, another 360, a Maserati coupe, a 308 GTS, a 456, and some other nice machinery. Rain held off for almost our entire morning drive, 150+ miles at some, um, pretty fun speeds. Great food, drink, company, prizes, scenery and FUN.

    Lor2435, were you standing in the rain this morning?!? You should have said hello!

    (dunno why this event doesn't show up on our FCA website right now, I suspect that it's because the event is happening RIGHT now and the software doesn't know whether to show it as "past" or "coming". But if you go to the home/front page, click on the appropriate picture or the news banner, and it takes you there.

    Yeah that was a mistake on my part :) I always check e FCA/NER site for events and didn't see anything for this weekend so I figured someone got the dates mixed up. I'm glad everyone is having fun up there!

    The Stradale was still there - just parked out in the back lot, where it's more convenient to that wing of rooms. The drive was really very nice - I think we had the only nice weather in New England on Saturday morning! It remained dry for about 90% of the drive, requiring sunglasses for much of it. The rain came in when we stopped in St. Albans for lunch (scallops, steak, blueberry cobbler), and during the afternoon when most of us were in the pool, in the spa, or hitting the bar!

    vty,
