I just found out that the Gumball 3000 Rally will be stopping at a local racetrack and there will be racing so I'm calling in sick LOL! There are going to be a couple of Bugatti's along with who knows what and I know the owner of the track, John Henessey. I'm so tired of missing events such as this and our bi-weekly get togethers so I'm saying F work tomorrow, daddy needs to play.

My digi camera took a crap but I still have my cellphone for pics so get redeye for them :thumbup: .

I asked the owner of this new ZR1 if I could takes pics, I always ask first, and he said do you want me to leave it unlocked so you can sit inside and take pics? I was so astounded by his generosity that I said no, doh :( :banghead. Frickin amazing car it is:

That XJ220 is mint

I almost pissed myself when I first saw it, I have loved that car from it's birth. :)

I have more pics but I'm not sure if the quality of them are worthy of posting until I go through them. It sucked having nothing but my cellphone to rely on but my digital camera took a vacation. :(

Some special cars the FXX is pretty rare isn't it?

Yes there are only 30 of them in the whole world. When I walked around FoH's transporter and saw the FXX it was like umm, words cannot describe the emotion I felt. One does not have to be a Ferrari fan to appreciate a great automoble.

Best thing was that I TOUCHED HER, oh man it was truelly a great moment for me personaly.
