Ah man, I'd love to go and see that! Sadly my wife has made plans for us this weekend.


You know what would be funny? Is if some equally modified Z06 Vettes jumped on the track and spanked every Ferrari there...

(I just watched a video where an F430 and a slightly modded new Z06 went at it at some race track where they had 5 categories to compete in. The Z06 took every event except for one, which was braking. Both were driven by race car drivers, so it was evenly matched. It's still fresh in my head which is why I'm posting about it. I have a lot more respect for Z06's after watching a bunch of track videos where the Z06 just dominates everything. )

i wouldn't doubt a Z06 spanking F430s with the right driver, but in the end a Ferrari is a Ferrari.

Sorted through a few more, we've printed up some images for tomorrow for us to get autographs from the drivers...

...and give them a copy of the image for their use.

Some wonderful photos!

Roo, that's a good idea to print the photos, and really cool of you to give a copy to the driver even though you can totally charge at least $20 a pic, especially to them... so props to you.

Well, there was an i-club guy there riding shotgun in an RX-8, but you never came up to see us in turn seven. You chose to drive over the gravel and into the workers vehicles by the propane truck and the Tundra...



As you were leaving - we took a picture. We saw you - you just didn't see us. We were parked up there...

Well, it's rather cool way of marketing.

It's a 5" x 7" large postcard print of one of many pics we have of each team car somewhere on the track - and on the back we've printed our logo, the website link to the Ferrari gallery we're building, our e-mail address, and our mailing address, just in case they'd like photos/prints/digital files.

Please forgive me if some are duplicates, but I haven't been to bed yet, and am looking to be out there in about 3-4 more hours:






















These are the ones we're making post card prints from.
