    Our gathering in Lake of the Ozarks. I put about 1000 miles on my Fiat. Other than baking the driver, it ran like a champ. It drones a bit over 70 but gets scary smooth over 75. 28 mpg (US), cruise at 70-75 mph (3600/3800 rpm), used/ dripped about 1 cup of oil and carried everything for the weekend in the trunk. I travel about 200 to 250 miles between fillups. Man, sounds like a Honda not a 35 year old Italian sports car.

    Andre: My bro is expecting to camp at Mosport this weekend. Watch for his dark green Pininfarina. How would he buy or can he get one of the meals served to participants? Eating is always an issue at the park. Happy racing. Ron

    There is a resutant onsite, but I think he can go to registration.

    Late 70's Pininfarina.

    Did he attend the 2009 race? Because we had someone camp near us.

    Cheers Ron
