Chill out... We shouldn't balk at a little friendly competition. Mercedes and BMW are lifelong rivals; might as well have some fun with it, whether he'll win or not.

God, it's comments like those that make us look like a community of douche bags who think our M3s are the most amazing things on earth.

Haha, I don't mind, I'm flattered. Based on how this post has gone, I like Earl, nothing wrong with a little fun and friendly competition, although I'm not sure this race would be that competitive, lol, but I'll still run him if he can make it to the event, there's more than a few others who would love to as well.

I know you can send your car wherever you want so i don't make excuses about having cars in two different countries (Your 599 is in Switzerland?) I will race under one condition. You should let me win.

Kidding aside what mods do you have in your car? If it's nothing serious (which i highly doubt it's not), the race should be interesting to see. With exhaust my car did high 7's for 60-130mph, but recently it got tuned so it should be faster but i haven't tried it so far and i'm not sure how it performs to be honest.

LOL, the car is in Switzerland (the extra 'o' in your name threw me off for a sec).

I actually tried to bring the 599 over two years ago to race in the silver state classic. To make a long story short, I brought the car over as a street car and good ole customs would not release the car without crash test/emmissions etc. The car was going to be trailered so I thought I would bring it in as a race car to which they said, we don't believe you and you are going to drive it on the street. I even had Ferrari involved but without success.

Mods were limited to exhaust, more aggressive tuning (motor/trans) and an updated intake system all of which were done by Ferrari (great to have the correct friends!!).

I'm that guy. Actually it's Surena

Beautiful scenery. Beautiful GTB. Love the color. Interesting mods. From what i know only a few got the "Enzo Treatment" and it seems your car is one of those. I've seen one in action and i can tell you that i'm not going to run your car at all Find someone else

I am horrible at taking pictures but this was taken about 20KM outside of Geneva. She is a 2008 and it has just under 1,000 KM.

Anyways no more about other toys other than to say I will try to make the event.

Actually, from a dig, it wouldn't be much of a race at all.
