I will be there with my new (to me) 360 Spider. It is a great event which I have attended as a spectator in the past. In addition the Ferraris, you also tend to get some other exotics like Lambos and classic Fiats.

They will figure this out around the same time they figure out that Ferraris can be driven during the winter, and don't need to wait until the spring to thaw before used lol!!

relax, the FCA members are mostly non computer people, or too busy to work on it... and all work is volunteer. I'm actually going to help them with the site, and making it friendly paypal and other electronic means is one of the things I want also.

And some of them do track their cars... drive during the winter, etc... it's just a term they call the event, kind of like when people get excited for opening day for baseball... the smell of grass and the national past time after the long winter hibernation.

If you all youngins with Ferraris with good ideas would join and help out that is most welcome. They are one of the most welcoming group of people I've met and enjoy each other's company (actually more than the cars).

Sorry don't own a Ferrari, and not really a youngin...well in mid thirties so maybe still a youngin in the f-car crowd lol! haha...

I was just messin' with ya bro in my post before ...I know the guys are good guys I instructed with FCA and FMoW back when Alie Ash and Bob Segal from Algar used to do the track days over at Summot Point like 8 years ago. Those were GREAT events and fun times. Good folks and fun cars, that's back when Richard Cappocia still worked for Alie at the old FoW location.

Well I'm not a "joiner" per se...but maybe you and I could join forces Karl and help them out (although you being an open source guy and me being an M$ junkie, the world might end!). Last year I voiced the same point of view on their lack of modern e-commerce. To be honest and as objectively as possible, there really isn't any excuse. We both know it takes minutes to establish a Paypal account.
