Hi, Bob here, I live in Toronto and work from here and Accrington U.K.
We have a business as engineers in hydraulic tooling for robotic submarines.
I am 53 and probably one of the oldest amateur boxers around these parts.
We enjoy boating on Georgian Bay cruising up through the north channel islands which makes up most of the summer activities while winter is mainly travel and some skiing.

Go to www.pca.org/ucr for track info if you're a new or potential track driver. Other than the PCA (the safest way to track in the beginning), there are other schools (www.dexterautosport.com and www.carcontrolschool.com) for example.
Come on, you won't bend it or anyone else's car if you attend some good, controlled and well organized events. Ian Law's program (www.carcontrolschool.com) offers great courses from in-class to parking lot and then Shannonville (safe track to drive).

Live and work in NY
I drive a TT that I just bought about a month ago
I'm a corporate lawyer
I love Don's houses and cars
I was fortunate enough to visit Ferrari last summer in Italy, and was taken for a few laps around the test track in an Enzo. My heart was still pounding when this pic was taken. (And the smile was still plastered to my face )

Hey Gary, my wife and I were in Italy this past May and did a factory tour along with the museum and track. I have to admit that no matter how much I've always loved Porsches, the hairs on my arm stood on end when I was there. Great picture, great story. Did you buy one of those 360 Modena Pistons at the Ferrari store for something ridiculous like 300 Euros?
#85
Alon: The factory store was SUCH a rip off, you're right. I bought my kids the little red Ferrari hats, but that's it. All in all, an amazing place, though. Wouldn't mind being a Ferrari test driver for a few months!

Yes, just being around all of the old tools and everything impressed me. I've got some good pictures of the all the workers going on lunch break and heading over to the little restaurant, all wearing red uniforms. It looked like a huge F1 support team. The pride that they fell is so obvious. That whole area is electric. By the way, if you're ever after any of those Ferrari or other F1 related goodies, check out www.collectorstudio.com The owner, Morry, is a friend and neighbour of mine and he has many US customers (he's much better than that store on Park Ave and 49th.).

I have been on the Rennlist for a couple of years.
I enjoy cars, fishing, and not working on my house.

I'm currently saving up for the next Porsche, though it looks like the $$$ may go towards kids instead if my wife gets her way...
