Mitch Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 Second annual all Italian car show at Wendy's headquarters in Dublin on 161. Last year the Ferrari's and Lamborghini's there were amazing. Just a few pics from last year. http://digitalmotives.smugmug.com/photos/194325353_5KCoM-M.jpg http://digitalmotives.smugmug.com/photos/195056053_37sRw-M.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc1647545523 Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 I will be there with the G/F. Doc, are you going to be going, it's a bike show too.I have gone in previous years, but the bike display is pretty thin. Chris often wins with his MV, and I saw a guy win one year with a V7 Moto Guzzi that he'd bought off the internet for 4k the week before. So, the bikes are not that impressive, really. Many, many Ferrari's though. The cars are great. MAG brings new cars, plus they "escort" cars from local celebs who wish to remain anonymous. Some beautiful Italian machinery alongside some pretty snooty people. And it's for a good cause. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vander Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 BTW Mitch this is not the 2nd annual. They've had this show for more than 2 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
90G60 Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 Definitely a good show, thanks for passing along the info. Lots of cars you don't see everyday. Was able to snap a few pictures along the way as well, including... http://i450.photobucket.com/albums/qq224/mtwebb5/DSCN0462.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc1647545523 Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 You know what would be really fun, renting a dump truck and plowing through that place smashing one ego at a time.Funny you should mention that. I was there today with starkmaster and his lovely lady, and a VERY STRONG gust of wind came out of nowhere, blew for about 15 secs, blew merchandise, metal racks, and boxes all over the vendor area, lifted one canopy, poles and all, up into the air about 20 feet before crashing down into another display. We all were astonished that with all the metal flying, nothing hit any of the cars parked amongst all this stuff. However, I would say that for that 15 seconds there were some very terrified Ferrari and Lambo owners. :eek2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitch Posted September 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 BTW Mitch this is not the 2nd annual. They've had this show for more than 2 years. I got the info from here http://consumer.discoverohio.com/searchdetails.aspx?detail=60259 Evidently their info was incorrect. No biggie. I was wrong about the admission price, too. Oops. I saw the ford GT with the Z28 vanity plate. You've got enough dough to buy the car, but didn't bother to get a new plate? WTF! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took a nice chuck out of the rocker panel. I didn't take any pictures, because you could tell he was pretty upset. There were a few other people that ran up to take pictures of the damage though, so they may surface. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
90G60 Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 Actually, looking through the pictures that I took I managed to take a picture of the rod in question before the incident. http://i450.photobucket.com/albums/qq224/mtwebb5/DSCN0457.jpg Sorry about the huge pics, haven't had the chance to re-size them.

It was pretty crazy to see something fly around and then come at you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
