Sarasota Exotic Car Fest 2/22/14

[Xcentric]

An un-forecasted early morning rain and dense coastal fog scared away a few scheduled attendees. They missed what turned out to be another beautiful day in paradise.

A few highlights from MartynL's Sarasota Café Racers Ford Power group:

She had to be in red.



All American.







Sinovac and Son.

BTW, uploading pics has become a real PITA. Can't upload at all in IE, and only one at a time in Chrome. Whatever happened to the multi-pic uploader? And, when I try to type all caps CP-4 and VIN 0007 it changes to lower case. :/

Great shots, Gary. Thought I'd add a couple more. A wonderful time was had by all who braved the elements to help raise money for UCP and show the Prancing Horses & Raging Bulls what American power & styling is all about.

Wow! Looks like a great gathering.Wish I could have been there.
I chopped ice off my drive way instead!

Great pics, Gary. Wish we had a show/gathering even remotely as good as that one.

Is that Carrera GT a light grey or white?

That red Z8 is incredible!

Who's standing next to Paul? Son?

Carrera GT is white. The Z8 is indeed incredible. The most beautiful BMW ever and one that will look beautiful forever. Paul is opening the clamshell, his son is in the white tshirt on the right. Steve Woodrough (X1) is in the cowboy hat. He is about to get a look at and listen to Paul's FRPP headers.

Ed, my son is standing on the passenger side of the blue car while I do my infamous Quasimodo impersonation while releasing the clam shell. I don't recall the name of the guy in the hat standing next to me, but his face rings a bell.

As always, thank you for the great pictures Gary. All of the best pictures of my car were taken by you.

Thanks. That CGT. Wow, wow, wow. Carrera white CGT. Talk about rarest of the rare. I have to assume it's the same one that's been on sale for quite a while ($500K, if I recall correctly). So much want.

Difficult for anyone to open the clamshell gracefully. Your son looks old enough to be your little brother. Love his C&D t-shirt. Think I need to get me one of those.

BTW, an interesting fact about CP-4. We have been assuming the car was first titled in Florida. As it turns out, the car was originally titled in Indiana. The current owner simply transferred the title.

No matter how titled, still not certified for the street use.

Awesome pictures as always!!
