The tournament is this week, so you should be fine next week. Let me know if you have time to break away for lunch.

Not a street sighting, but I drove in a track day with the Porsche Club and Ferrari club at Bondurant West in Chandler, AZ, on Saturday. Thought this crowd might dig this track-prepped beaut:






This GT wasn't too shabby, either (and it's always great to see that people actual track their supercars instead of mothballing them):



When I lived back East, I drove a lot with the BMW club in my WRX, but the scenery at these PCA-FCA events can be pretty insane -- at one point I pointed by a 430, a 458, a 456, and a GT3... and that was all at once -- sounded incredble!

CGT!

It's cars like that NSX () that make that S2000 look stupid. "Purpose built"

Thought I was seeing things when I saw the cars moving in the background, then I realized it was a GIF.

Absolutely fantastic photos! I love the first one of the MP4-12C and the Mustang burnout one is great! Makes me want one.

Just missed a couple the last few days. Tough to get a cell shot while driving sometimes.
GT-R & Flying Spur earlier this week.
Red Evora this morning.

You would've been disappointed in my progress anyway. I think my N. Eastern origins are preventing the party in back from outgrowing the business in front.

I've seen a handful on my trips back to Scottsdale. Funny enough this was the least exotic car I wanted to get a photo of, but I wasn't quick enough with my iPhone to get shots of the other ones unfortunately. This guy was at a red light next to me so I had enough time to get a photo.

I don't know why, but I didn't realize there was that kind of money in Scottsdale. I guess with a TPC course, I should have known.

Crazy money. Especially in N. Scottsdale. When I had on office in that area, I would see at least one exotic per week (not including the guy with 12c who had an office near mine; I'd see his car every day).
