Is this the same guy Vettecop knew? We'll probably never know since he never comes here any more But according to him the guy is nice. Come on Palmer, if I owned an F40 and you talked to me I'd ignore you too

Maybe it was an age thing? Who knows why people are rude to some and not to others. Heck of a lot easier to just be nice to everyone.

Apparently he did. There were bugs on the windshield and bumper. I know he wasn't registered to be on display there. He just showed up in the F40 and they parked him with the other cars....and rightfully so. The F40 was a big hit.

When I first saw the F40, I thought Jas had made the trip from Lexington, but I was talking to a friend of Jas's at the Concours, who coincidentally also has an F40, and he said between Jas just having a baby and another Porsche event he was at with the Carrera GT, Jas just couldn't make the Louisville one. He hoped to next year though.

Saw a motor home northbound on 65 yesterday pulling a 24' enclosed car trailer with Lamborghini SV script and lettering all over it. Would liked to have seen inside!

Yes, that's the guy I know. He's always been nice to me. Did he ever join up here, Andrew?

I've found his card but haven't sent an email yet. If you really want me to do it, I'll give it a try.

Afraid not, but that's ok as long as he joins a drive one of these days

this past weekend: several vipers and a Ford GT, yellow with black stripes. All at the Noblesville square, but not part of C&C. They just happened to drive past.

yellow striped GT probably Mike's (same owner of the 275 GTB/4, Daytona, and red F430 -> now replaced with a red 599). I think the Viper club had a little private tour last weekend but it may have been the weekend before that
