Ferrari World!!


Dear Ferrari and theme park enthusists. It seems that Ferrari and some very talented people are on the verge of completing a project no other car manufacturer has been able to do on such a large scale. For those of you not familiar, in 2010 Ferrari plans to open the world's FIRST car themed amusement park in Abu Dhabi. I have seen the preview of the park and it is spectacular, as fitting for a car maker such as Ferrari. For those of you who wish to be awed, please follow by clicking the link below.

Ferrari to Leave F1 in 2010!!!


Unfortunately, according to several sources, including TSN, F1 web site and Ferrari's own web site. We may not have a F1 team for next season in 2010. Many sources say that the budget cap that the FIA want to activate next season will make the sport two tiered and not follow the orginal asparations which it was founded. Many other teams, like BMW Sauber and Toyota have also expressed disinterest in the cap. What is F1 truly about we must ask ourselves. It has always been the top motor racing venue and all those who want to participate should realize that F1 is about becoming the best through technological advancement. That entails money in my books. Please write your comments, as I am sure others must feel the same, or not.

Oregon trooper reels in line of Ferraris, Lamborghini


From: CNN.com


Story Highlights

  • * Police: 6 exotic cars, mostly Ferraris, pulled over "like good little soldiers"
    * Polite drivers reportedly told police they were making
    annual road trip
    * Fine for speed racing is $627, police say
    * Lamborghini with tag "BADBUL" pulled over again later in
    day, police say

So said Oregon State Senior Trooper David Petersen after he was able to catch up with six exotic sports cars on a stretch of Highway 18 near Grand Ronde on Thursday, according to a news release.
Perhaps a more amazing feat was that he stopped all the cars simultaneously.
"They just were all good little soldiers and pulled right over," Oregon State Police spokesman Lt. Gregg Hastings told CNN.
One of the drivers was later cited again on a different highway.
The drivers of the cars -- consisting of Ferraris, a Lamborghini and an Acura NSX -- told Petersen they were part of a group of 20 similar cars making an annual road trip, the news release said.
They were all cordial and cooperative, and were cited with speed racing, a class A traffic violation that can command a fine of $627, Hastings said.
After receiving reports Thursday morning that several sports cars were speeding and passing in no-pass zones west of Grand Ronde, Petersen set up east of the casino town, near McMinnville, and waited.
Five of the cars soon blew past him, running about 100 mph in a 55-mph zone, Hastings said. As Petersen pulled onto Highway 18 in pursuit, a sixth car passed him.
"I guess when you're going too fast, you're in a rock and a hard place," Hastings said.
Highway 18 runs from Dayton, Oregon, in the Willamette Valley to the Pacific coast. The stretch where the cars were cited is considered particularly dangerous and the Oregon Department of Transportation provides additional funding to enforce traffic laws there, Hastings said.
About two hours after the incident, another trooper pulled over the Lamborghini from the group in Multnomah Falls, about 90 miles east. The driver of the car, which bore the the license plate "BADBUL," was cited for driving 90 in a 65-mph zone, according to a news release.
