Hi Tom,

I will be arriving Wednesday Morning, and leaving Sunday night, so I'll see you in South Florida!

There's lots of controversy going on at Cavallino this year. The Platinum award threshold has been increased from 95 to 98 points and ticket prices have doubled. It'll be interesting if there is any backlash, or will people just line up for more!

Hi Tom and Tom,

HelenAnn and I and the blue car will be there. The car was invited back as a previous Best of Show winner. It also will be one of the three cars to be discussed at the Thursday Symposium, so those of you who are coming do not ask me any tough questions.

See you there.

Best regards,

Robert

Ok Admiral, to give you time to prepare, you should know that I will be asking "Why isn't your car red?" And Tom, I spent a lot of time yesterday looking for the proper ticket forms because I thought the $200 ticket price must be for more than just admission. I guess Concorso is taking a lesson from the Quail...

I am going anyway, though, because I enjoy meeting with all of you guys and I think the "Best Of" reunion should be pretty good. See you all in January!

Dear Tom W.

Thanks for the heads up. Of course the answer is "I already tried that." Please see post #584 at http://www.ferrarilife.com/forums/pre-6 ... post676562

Well, I guess I will have to think of something else... I would like to talk to you about racing at Del Mar in January. I grew up in Del Mar and still have a place there, but do not know much about its racing history. Horses I know about, but not cars. It would be fun to learn about.

We'll be there. Arriving Wednesday and leaving Sunday morning, not attending the Trump thing. For all you GTE enthusiasts, Alan Boe's lovely car will be on the Concours field fresh from Bob Smith's shop. I'll be baby sitting it for him while he is judging other classes.
See y'all there

I am skipping this year. I can't find my white alligator loafers, pastel plaid pants, or pink blazer.......

Even so I will miss seeing everyone. Actually work, family stuff, and fire house stuff will keep me away.

I did just have grandchild number 8. So I guess it's time to move to FL.......

I'll be at the track both days and Sat for the show, skipping all the parties @ the breakers. I'd like to get together with everyone.

Anybody else not made dinner plans? I haven't given this trip enough thought and now I gotta get on a plane tomorrow. Would love to meet up with you guys.

Need to go now and figure out what to pack for 40-80 degrees and sunny/cloudy/rainy/windy days. And, oh yeah, humidity...
