"He who marches out of step hears another drum." ~ Ken Kesey
After my cousin retired from the NFL he owned Atlanta Imports in Smyrna Ga, he had some very pricey rides they used to sell and you know who his customers where LOL being a former NFLer. I remember sitting my butt in a Lambo, you wouldn't think those cars had that much room in them but they do, but hey Brandt, dude ain't nothing wrong with what your doing, enjoy the hell out of it, I know I would
Amazing, would love to take that around a few empty roads.Feel free to drop a few hints on how to afford one of these some day, although like you say I'd prioritise a couple of big surf trips first...
hahah.. what a waste of money. The only place a ferrari is fun to drive is on a track

We ran very lean for as long as we could 8 years roughly. Almost no personal expenses and dumped money into equipment and the bank. It made the last few years easy as have paid cash for everything in here minus 3 pcs. Which is all we owe on. Personally we didn't even buy our first home until after we bought our building and such. Hell we took delivery of our CH3D the same week we closed on our house so we were on our second auto before we cared enough to put money into our personal lives. In a couple of years we will own everything except our building as far as the business goes. Personally we will probably always have car debt as we love cars too much...but that is OK. I am probably the most white trash person to ever by a Ferrari and that is OK with me. I came from a corn field basically and busted my ass to get what I have. Right now I could hire 2 people and effectively semi retire if I wanted to at 37. Im good with that.

I've got about a year before I can really 'play' again as picked up to many tickets last year Not sure if yours has it or not but when you enter some race tracks around the world the car goes into 'race' mode and then you really get to open er up.
That road above have no cops and is in the middle of no where, its not a tourist trap (yet) like the dragon is (which is also not far from us). Both are world famous roads and have places you could hit top speed in either of my cars if you had the nuts. But we generally stay around 80-100 in the corners. Some corners of course are nearly uturns and are slower but great for sliding the car around a bit. We have a great group of guys that we run with all experienced drivers. Generally 10-25 of us per trip out there in super cars. Nothing better than hearing 25 exotic cars run though the hills and curves. Ferraris do not go into race mode automatically, I drive mine in Race mode daily though its just a switch on the maniteno.

The Cherohala skyway is about my favorite piece of blacktop on the planet.. i love me some extra fast roads and the skyway delivers!
The Dragon just has way too many people out there to have a real good time.
