WOW! Must have been the tail lights since I was in back of you. I know my neighbors' Infinity SUV headlights will set off the V-1 when he follows me out of my Ghetto, but it's nothing like what your car was doing. As for the color of the car it looks much more dramatic in person than the avatar photo. Might be time for me to switch out of the turbo.

Maybe Jason can capture a truer color for the avatar.

 

Not sure i'll be able to make this tech sessison. Have some things that came up last night and today. Hopefully I'll see everyone in about an hour. We'll see...

 

Great turnout today. Was nice to get in from the cold after standing on a baseball field in SEATAC in the rain for 3 hours. I won a cool poster too. Ill run through the pics tonight and post some of them up.....

 

BIG thanks to Tommy for setting this up and letting us check out his car pulled apart. It was a real treat to get to look at the car in detail.

 

Here are my pics from today:

BTW, I think the Superleggera is my dream car now. I want one of those soooo bad....

 

those are great pictures, james! it's like being right there with you guys! i'm home with bronchitis, so i'm sorry i couldn't make the event today. =(

so it looks like the surgery was a success?

 

Ouch. My son just got over pnumonia (sp?). Hope your back on your feet soon.

 

Nice getting to finally meet some of you guys, and Tommy again you are a true car enthusiast...thank you for including the group in this event.

 

Geez, those rear tires are beefy, I just want to chew on 'em! Nomnomnom!

 

Thanks Germeezy1! It was fun getting a chance to chat longer than the last time we saw each other. I was having a lot of fun watching the level of highly technical interest by some. I learned a lot about my car in the process too. Thanks to Lamborghini Bellevue for all the work they put into getting the garage ready and all the work Josh put into the event. It was cool to see such a high level of interest. I hope others now do the same thing and open their cars to similar tech sessions.

 

I think I spoke with your for a minute or two, but could not remember your screen name.....Nice to meet you.

 

Looks like I missed yet another fun get together. I arrived back in Seattle at about 6 pm from Europe. I'm glad to see that James managed to get some good shots!

David, I'll be more than happy to take some shots of your new S5.

 

Thanks, Tom, and Lamborghini Bellevue too! That was a fun and informative event.
