Radar Looks Terrible, No Tutto For Me
As the title says, skipping Tutto, the radar looks terrible. That makes 3 out of the last 5 ruined by the weather. At least we have no drought.

Well the rain is drying up, as soon as the roads are dry, I think I will head over. Better late than never.

Re: Radar Looks Terrible, No Tutto For Me
After some dithering I risked it (wipers don't work and it's a 40 min drive). Turned out to be a reasonable day with only a couple of sprinkles. I met Pete (as friendly in real life as on the forum) whose dash looks fantastic.
I won best Fiat, but I'm pretty sure that's because only three were judged!
The only downer of the day was on the ride home, as I was accelerating onto Rte 128 the #2 spark plug blew out of the engine. For those who might not be following my travails on this engine - I have already helicoiled the #1 and #3 cylinders. It was a long, loud ride home on three cylinders. Looks like another helicoil adventure tomorrow.

Great to meet you as well! Sorry about the spark plug but congrats on Best Fiat!!!
There were only 9 Spiders, versus 15 last year. l think that the threat of rain kept a lot of people away, and the lawn (where we commoners converge) was only about 1/2 full.
There was a beautiful light blue Ferrari 275 GTS there! (the model/inspiration for our Spiders)
Here is a link to a photobucket folder with about 100 pictures. Way too much trouble to post them individually here.

Re: Radar Looks Terrible, No Tutto For Me
We went to Hemmings foreign car show in Saratoga this weekend. Something like 160 cars. 6 Spider 2000's there. Although the forecast was bad not a drop fell on us. Didn't count but there could have been 40 Morgans on the show grounds.
Life is great.

Sometimes it is best to just ignore the forecast! Love Saratoga.
