Drat! I wanted to see that show but forgot to set the VCR. Hopefully, as is their usual want, Speed will replay it soon.

Weds night at 8pm, the Monterey Historic Races featuring loads of Ferrari and other vintage racing greats.   I'll bet it's more interesting than the Chinese Grand Prix the promo aired in.
#601 of 729 Did anyone catch it...? by andys120 Sep 30, 2004 (2:45 pm)
The Speed Channel Monterey Historics show was worth it just to see those GTOs piling thru the corkscrew Laguna Seca, what a sight!

Saw the show last night and, now more than ever, I'm sorry I couldn't get out there for the events this year. Andy you're right, it was worth just to see all those GTOs and F1 cars on track. I wish they had concetrated more on some of the race coverage though.

the Oct.'04 Octane has a round-up of all the Ferrari 250 models from '55 (Mille Miglia) to '64 (Lusso). Great stuff about my favorite Ferraris.   Tom, the October Classic and Sports Cars has a good article on one of our favorites, the 330 GTC illustrated by photos of a really nice bright metallic blue car.

Andy, I picked up the Octane issue the other day. The photographs are beautiful! I wish the writing had been up to the same standards. A bit cursory for my taste.   The new Forza has some interesting stuff in it this month including a gentleman in France who has been using his GTO as a daily driver for years. Funny there are issues of Forza which I take a glance at, perhaps read a couple of short articles, and then put away, and others that I read from cover to cover. The magazine seems to lack some consistency.   I'll have to pick up Classic and Sports Cars. I love the 330 GTC. Recently I was at Boston Sports Car, where I have my car serviced, and they had a 365 GTC in for an alignment. Rare as hen's teeth. It basically a 330 body with slight nose and hood mods (slightly larger grill opening, etc.) with a 365 engine/drivetrain. I think they built about a dozen of them towards the end of the 330 run.   Actually, it was a good day over there. Also in the shop was the '52 250 PA Prototype, a '56 (?) Benz 300 SL roadster (prettier than a gullwing) and the new Lambo Murcielago Barchetta press car. I have to admit, the Lambo was exciting, but I'd have jumped over it to get to either the Benz or the 250 (a prototype yet!).

FORZA item about the GTO daily driver. I agree about the lack of detailed analysis in the 250 article and I'm not sure all their facts are straight but it's one of the few places I've seen all those 250 types together.

Nice write up on the new 8 cylinder car on Edmunds. Let's see, the 612 is reasonabley new, deliveries are taking place and pretty soon we'll start seeing them on the street. So i guess the next new car, revamp or what ever is a replacement for the 575 M. As soon as we see a 575 Barchetta we'll know its days are numbered. How do we replace another great series of cars? Front mounted 12? Midships? Paddles only? Baby Enzo? What's next?
#607 of 729 I saw a computer gen..... by andys120 Oct 20, 2004 (7:55 am)
of the 575 replacement called the 600, I think it was in a recent Road & Track. It looks much like a 612 (an improvement IMO).   Dunno where they go after that except that there are new Maseratis coming out (Crossover & new Coupe/Spider)   It looks much like a 612 (an improvement IMO)
#608 of 729 Any day you see a Ferrari is.... by andys120 Oct 26, 2004 (3:31 pm)
a good day. I saw a very nice silver 456M parked in front of a rinky dink looking local tire store. It was parked in the driveway w a motorcycle and no other vehicles around.   I thought both vehicles complemented each other nicely. We only see F-cars two or three times yearly in Concord NH.
