1. Sounds great!

2. Have you tracked it at Willow yet?

3. I'd take those down if I were you... a determined LE could probably write you a reckless ticket.

How could some determined cop know where that was filmed? I'd leave it up, looks like a closed course to me.

that location is so remote...when I turn around in the ride along video...that's literally the end of the road. the nearest house is probably 7 miles away

A Lancaster cop with a hard-on for Ferrari owners wouldn't meet much resistance.

FWIW, I never, never, ever speed, personally.

Awesome sound!!

I love most all cars and the various exhaust notes but Ferrari is in a class all their own.

Thank you for sharing your toy with us.

All that rubber on the road looks like the starting line of a drag strip...I think the local LEO have better things to do

Careful there, buddy. There are some really horrid drivers here, (as well as some really good ones).

It's like the Deja Vu slogan: "Thousands of beautiful girls and one ugly one", only with drivers.

Oh I cannot believe you just said that - with me having a so-cal business trip in the next few weeks - LOL!

All teasing aside, I almost never drive anyone else's car. I did make a once in a lifetime exception for a friends 3.2 911 powered/suspension Intermeccanica speedster. But that's the only time, so the Italian job is safe from me!

I let people drive it all the time. as weird as it sounds...it's something that a lot of people will never forget, and something that not a lot of people get a chance to do. I love to share the experience with as many people as possible!

Me too, I had a student at Lime Rock who offered me his 996tt to "show him how fast it could go" I declined and said I would stay in the right seat and show him how fast he can go...
