Unfortunately, topless, it's a little more complicated than that...and as a good friend of mine spiderdan coached me, the number 1 breakdown on a long road trip is a g/f-wife which came to a close tie with tire failure, then cooling system related failures and then battery/charging systems.
...no she doesn't follow on this forum :wink:

I hear you. My solution with Mrs Topless was to procure her a Spider :) Job done.

That's a no-go. It will peel off the original layer of plasti-dip. The idea was to attend with a Spider looking its best. Are you attending?

I see the FCA membership page, $35.00 but i can't find a link to attend the actual event. If i click on cortile a message redirects you back to FCA. I sent an email to clarify.

There may be as many as four Lancia rally cars at PVGP. Boy, would I like to see one of these howling thru Schenley Park and in the FFO display area :twisted:

The co-driver in this car is a DC Fiats member; I'll post more info as it becomes available.

I am pretty sure that is the same car I saw at the ''Chasing the Dragon'' hillclimb last year.The sound of that car coming up the mountain was incredible!
Also,the registration for FFO 15 is now active.If you plan on attending,or even feel it is a possibility,you should at least reserve your room.The FCA leadership has managed to secure more rooms,but they are going faster than at any previoUs FFO.It is shaping up to be an epic event.

Register for FFO15 before July 1st and avoid the $50 late registration fee. Registration will close at noon eastern on July 8!

When you get to FFO one of the first things you should do is pickup your registration packet at the Clarion Room in the Doubletree Hotel. Your packet will include a detailed program guide, your name badge, meal tickets and all the items you need to know about that are happening at Freakout.
