Re: Monterey 2009

It was nice to see everyone at the dinner, and kudos to Tom for putting on the event. The breakout sessions at the bar afterwards was well attended, too.
I am glad I did not bring the car. Waiting for the lights to change on hwy1 was a little tedious.

GTE (with shields!) alert (3229)

Oh, my.... This one has shields on the flanks, and on the oil filter !!! A very brief write up also claims that a Superamerica mill is in the engine bay. If so....some Superamerica owner might want to stage a reunion. The write up is super short, and the pics not all that extensive. It always makes ...

Re: GTE Prices Appear to Remain Strong

bottom line is: FML index is incorrect. I had a colleague who used to manipulate it. He would put his v12 ferrari in the FML for the asking price of 900K (or something silly like that), and this would skew the famous "asking price index" in his favor. I much prefer the Sports Car Market, as it tends...

Re: The Quail

Thanks. I just rang them and it is a 3 night minimum. I depleted my slush fund on Ducati bling. I have some points and platinum status at another hotel a little further away, so I might do that, or just day-trip it. We are checking to see if we can leave the kids at home, too. Looking forward to see...

Re: Road Trip!

Tom,

Happy to host in San Francisco. Will you be here by Friday. Feb 13?
Reason I ask... is that I will be on a plane, bound for a week of Colorado skiing on Saturday morning.

Re: Ice Storm

All the best wishes in your wife's recovery. We certainly take civilization / conveniences for granted. Which reminds me....I gotta look around for recession specials...Maybe I can pick up a place in the country, too. Your pics were inspirational in that regard...

Thanks again, Toms ! I left early, after only 2 Coronas, and before my kids caused any damage. Had a great time chatting about V12s and the local scene. I also enjoyed the subsequent Thai food outing, and the California unveiling. In the complaint column was the Concorso show. Absolutely awful ambia...
