A final GT run before the "true" Notheast winter....

JOEY & NARDO,,,,You give new meaning to the phrase "BIG BALLS"!!!!!:screwy:
Leave it to a New Yorker to attempt (and live) through a silly stunt like this. :rolleyes
Nardo, you like the guy in the movie saying to the killer,,,," go ahead, crush his skull, he's the hammer"!!!!!:devil:smash:dead:

I love you two and on a serious note, it's GREAT to have you both back home safe:thumbsup:cheers...This will make for a great chapter in the next book.....

Glad everyone is home safe and sound,but I hope that is the one and only time I see a GT driving in the SNOW!!! Now clean up the french fries between the seats and please don't do that again.

Relieved to know that you both have made it back safely. Certainly a trip you will always remember. I can only imagine what you both were thinking with 4 inches of snow while driving a GT. We got dumped on big time in CT, 14 inces of snow. No power. Trees down everywhere.

Impressive!! I cannot even imagine driving a GT in those conditions! 550 hp, no traction control and tires once filled with snow act like surfboards!! Good to see you home safe. Glad you saw some foliage and the falls! The panini looked good as well!

What's with you two guys? You don't think JIM CATORE on the Weather Channel is for real?, And He's Italian too! A Texas led by a New Yorker, what does that tell ya! Glad no problemas. PS I love GENO TOO but I'd be a little Skeptical if he made that trip suggestion to me. Tomy

Who me? I'm the cowardly Lion.

Proof the GTs can survive rain and snow. I drove my GT in the rain from Dallas to the Texas Rally to hang out in the parking lot because I didn't want to pay in Austin with Hoosier slicks on the rear. It's not the gun.....it's the person behind the gun. GTs are meant to be driven......not saved in a bubble for others.

JOEY,

Is it a Ferrari theme this year? If so, I will drive the 430 and have the GT trailered down. Unless,,,, I can make a custom tow-bar for the 430 to haul the GTeeee!!
