Exclamation Ferrari Day at Eagle's Nest [pics inside]

While I was at work, waiting for the day to end as usual, when I received a phone call from one of my buddies, informing there was a Ferrari event at Eagles Nest (a golf course). After finishing work, I stopped by for about 20 minutes to snap some pics (with my 1.2 megapixel cellphone). I was amazed at what I saw there, as will you when you see the pictures.



Later on that night, when the event was ending, I headed on over, in hope to see some of the cars leaving. My assumption was the huge Ferrari tractor trailers were going to transport all of the really expensive/rare cars, like the MC12/Enzo/F40. To my advantage, I manage to follow an Enzo for about 15 minutes when it left (this was my first time seeing one driving in person). As if that wasn't enough excitement, I head back to Eagles Nest in case there was anything left to see....and YES there definitely was! I was able to follow an MC12 for about 20 minutes, from the golf course back to the Ferrari Dealership of Ontario. Going 140km/h on the 407, the Maserati begins to accelerate, and was GONE in a matter of seconds (although I later caught up with it). I have NEVER, EVER, in my life heard something so remarkable (the MC12 was alot more exciting to see than the Enzo, and had a nicer exhaust note in my opinion).

Those are amazing pics man! You shouldn't have to worry about pic quality (for the most part, lol): as long as we know what's goin' on, that's all that matters. Damn those are nice.

F40 and F355: my two favorite Ferraris. Sooooooo nice.

Awesome event. The Maserati is so baller. It would be one of the first cars I'd buy if I won the lottery.

Damn that thing is

Nice cars! I still think that the 360 Modena is the best looking car EVER made.

Awesome stuff. They had something similar to that, just smaller, when I went to the F1 race in Indy back in '04.
