Lovin the 360

I would've been all over that Challenge Stradale! The 360 is my favorite Ferrari ever.

They sound like 3 superbike engines going at it.  Awesome sound.

I bet it was! I've seen a few 360's before, but I've never seen a Stradale in person. Neat thing is that basic 360's from the '99 and the early 2000's don't cost much (around $80,000 ). When I finish undergrad, the saving will begin!

Looks like it was a fun day with some nice cars. Did the S2000 handle well? I thought about getting one a few years ago but it fell through. Wondering if I missed out.

I love the S2000.  If you like small, light, nimble, and reliable, you can't go wrong.  The new Dunlop Star Specs had TONS of grip.  I am still physically sore from driving (3 days later).  
Best quote to describe how I feel about the S2000:

"After getting out of the S2000 every other car feels heavy, cumbersome, imprecise, untrustworthy and just plain less fun. It is the one car I desire for myself more than any other."

Yeah, great weather, fantastic track, and awesome people.  Except everyone was in such a damn hurry!

You will have pry the keys to My S2000 from my cold dead hands. Than's a 08-09 in the pics, last of the breed.

I want an S2000 sooo bad. I've always had a thing for them, ever since I rode one in highschool. I will have one one-day.

Thanks for the info. I was actually at the dealership about to sign the papers when they started playing games. You know all the crappy ones, well all of sudden they claimed they had a higher offer on the car from some kid in the corner. I said fine, f-off and headed for the door with my cash in hand. Dealer flipped out and followed me out to my truck (no massive adrenaline dump or blading) saying he really wanted me to have the car and blah blah blah. Turned out the kid was the son of one of the mechanics and this was some shill bidding tactic bs. The bluffed, I called and they lost the sale. The car ended sitting there for another 3 months before being sold. Maybe Ill hunt for another one this winter after drop top season has ended.

Looks like you had a great time!

Looks like a blast, what's it like to drive a Lotus?

Honda's head (US) engineer spoke with a bunch of S2000 owners at the Mid-Ohio Indy race.  He said don't worry, we have some good stuff coming.  I just hope hope he isn't talking about some stupid hybrid crap!

And the S2000 pictured is an 09.

I did not drive one on the track.  I did test drive a Lotus Elise (like the blue one pictured) once, but not enough to give an opinion about it.

Awesome. I had the opportunity to attend the Elise press launch at Barber Motorsports Park when the car first came to this country back in 04. The Elise is a car you don't drive so much as wear. I love that car.

One of these days my car will be working.  I need to get it on Mid-Ohio.
