so, this is an absolutely unique chance to be a co-driver in a 2004 Ferrari Enzo Ferrari, as well as in a Lamborghini Gallardo and Diablo, F40, 575M, 360.... :shock: :shock: :shock:
participants´ll also be able to take a closer look at e.g. Continental GT, 612 Scaglietti, 360 CS, Ferrari Enzo, Lamborghini Murcielago, Ferrari 288 GTO...
unfortunately i can´t make use of my personal private invitation to that event due to private issues, but i thought it´d be cool if someone else could go there, taking some nice pics and vids, and tell me....how often do you get such a chance again, a ride in a Enzo :shock:
date is sunday 25.04.2004, location south east germany, near to the border of switzerland, ~60km away from Zürich...
post here or pm me on details...

Sorry for my french .... Lucky bastard :twisted:
At least we know you will come with thousand of pictures , i want a film of you inside the Enzo , please :D
Sadly I "only" have a digi-camera.. my shiny new Pro 1.. no video camera and incredible, I don't know anybody with one :(
The Pro 1 can take quite good vids in 640x480 res, but they would eat away the memory cards :|
And I only have a 256 and a 64 MB card.. shooting the pics in 3264x2248 I could do some 150 pics, in 2272x1704 some 270 and in 1600x1200 res 500... (all of wich in high-res, not super high-res)..
I think that could be enough, but sadly as said... no vids possible :(
high res pics! long vids! hope you'll go TT! (iBTW i want a lot from your 'supercar rally' you've been to!! :wink: )

We just need to solve the last problem: how to brake across the border? :D At 270 km/h I'm sure I will blow away all the guards there, but it won't be that polite ;)

oh.. right.. ok 2 options..
1) you send an apology letter explaining the circumstances...
2) you stop right near the border, and get into a heli, crossing the border with no prob.. or even codename swordfish style :wink:

Really stupid discussion. For this opportunity I'd fly with airplane from Estonia (200km to nearest airport + 3000 kilometres to Zürich. But since nobody gives me the invitation and I have a university to graduate this spring then.. yeah.. there it goes. So TT you have perhaps the biggest bloody responsibility to go out there and give us a FULL STORY !!!!!!!! PErhaps if you have got very good pics and you write a nice story about it pehaps I could forward this to my friend who is producer to the estonian biggest and best selling men's magazine.. :) Perhaps.. I die of envy but goo luck to whoever will go there..

Well it's probably something pretty exclusive I fear... nothing on the web as far as I know... that's why I doubt it will be open to public (in case I won't be able to have that pass)

04-20-2004, 10:41 AM
I'm not even going, but I'm still excited! :D
A shirt with the new JW logo or printed banner would be so cool!
Holy fuck.We have had similar events but cars were from subaru and i didn`t think twice even then.This is one in a lifetime.To be driven in enzo.Oh damn,you have to be one lucky bastard.
tanelvali
04-20-2004, 12:32 PM
I just thought it over. And unlike TT, i am willing to travel from tallinn to zürich to this carshow or whatever the event and participate. This would be like a most excellent happening to me as I have only seen ferraris on few occasions here in estonia. So TT whats your final answer? Shall i book plane tickets? Ofcource I'd take digital cameras and video cameras along with me to make the best out of it to you all.
So whats it gonna be?
I think you missed my 5 or 6 posts were I already told that YES, I WILL GO if st-anger will give me this opportunity

04-20-2004, 12:41 PM
Too bad. :) but i think it would be more exciting to me than to you.. due to the fact that I have like nissan almeras running down the street and you have modenas and m3s :)
ok actually i think that it serves the JW community best if U go but this god damn envy in me.. it eats my heart out. goddamn.
Well if it is open to public you could take the plane anyway ;)

I think it doesn't matter the cars there are around you in a common day. This is a completely special ocasion because TT will get the opportunity of sitting in many select cars and be a co-driver, listen the inredible sound from inside the car...even Jabba, or st-anger who have driven usually great cars would enjoy this occasion.
I agree with you in one thing: TT is a fucking lucky man! :wink: ( as I told you yesterday TT) and st-anger has given to JW members an incredible opportunity so thank you very much to him. :D

so, i just pm´ed TT on everything, just to inform everyone else as well and to answer the most important questions:
i got a vip invitation to that event, how´s that???....well i get quite a few of them to certain events like this one due to my contacts in industry and my business and let´s say i´ve some very good friends too :wink:
so i received a mail with that invitation for the event on saturday, this´ll be for the ppl with invitation only, unfortunately i´m working in Leipzig from tomorrow ´till saturday and there´s absolutely no chance that i ´ll go to that event, on sunday the event is opened for public too, but on sunday i´m spending the day with my wife, so i don´t think it´s possible to join that event...
as i told TT, my invitation is absolutely non transferably due to some reasons, i phoned some ppl today and they´ll phone me back, hopefully tomorrwow, to let me know if he´ll have the chance for the ride without my invitation...
unfortunately i haven´t had the time to manage everything today, but as i said, i´ll keep you up to date on everything...

Again, thanks anyway. Sunday I'll go there anyway :D still an event I can't miss :D!!
Now, if you could do something about the Enzo it would be SUPERB!, If not, well, at least you told me about the event and I would be able to attend it thanks to you!
I just wonder if the other car's passenger rides will be available to everybody and if yes how much would they cost..
It's quite strange that there is no website about this event :)
I'd like to know at least the opening hour (although beeing 3 hours away I will probably be unable to be there at 6 am ;))
I'm excited damn!

GO MATTEO!!!
CHE CULO!!!
I'm very happy for you! I don't know what to say
me too dude...I absolutely adore it...
same here.. it for sure in my top 10 ferrari's list! (number 5 actually!)
i love it SO much... but its too bad it didn't get to race :? i'm sure it would be worth even more if it would have.. a lot more! but this way i just might buy one.. someday.. ;) (unlike my 1 ferrari.. the 250 GTO or my number 2 ferrari.. the 250LM but i'm still hoping!)
UPDATE - ok it's confirmed.. the VIP pass is personal and absolutely impossible for somebody else beside st-anger to use it. That's sad, but st-anger's offer still remains priceless and I really appreciate that, dude :D
To have a passenger ride in the Enzo will be possible anyway, BUT, as a non-VIP I'd have to pay.. and it aint' cheap.. not at all: 350 Euro!! I know very well that it's a goddam Enzo, but I spent lot of money lately (The new Pro 1, the Ibiza accident, the broken TV...).. I really can't afford to pay that much.. even for an Enzo.. maybe for a Miura or F50 I would :P to bad.. at least I will see it moving since others will pay I hope!
Good news are that there will be less exclusive cars.. with the Testarossa quoted at 40 euro and Modena and Gallardo at 80.. so for sure I will have a couple of rides in some other fine machinery and will take pics of course and maybe a couple of short vids with the digi-camera ;)
I was so close shit :D
An interesting "money making" scam though - charging for passenger rides in exotic cars.... ;)

So that's the typical good news/bad news message, I guess... :|
Sorry to hear that the VIP pass is non transferable. I still hope you'll have a great day. A ride in a Testarossa or Gallardo would also be great, anyway! :D
I would like a ride in a V8 Ferrari, hoping there would be a 355 available maybe (I'd die for a 308 GT4 too ;)) and also a Lambo and I will shock all of you, but I'd like to ride the mighty LM002!!!! :D

^^^ You don't ever shock me with saying you want a ride in ANY Lamborghini... :wink:
LOL phew :D anyway I will see while there... no idea about the complete list :D I hope it's not "only" Enzo, Gallardo, 360 and Testarossa ;)
To bad the F40 won't be available beeing serviced :( :( :(

How about the 288 GTO? Will that be there?
Some Lambo V12s would also be nice, don't you think?

the line up:
Ferrari F40
575 Maranello
Testarossa
360 Spider,
Lambo Diablo, Gallarado & LM002
Maserati Quattroporte
Bently GT
Ferrari 612 Scaglietti
Ferrari 360 Challenge,
F360 CS
Ferrari Enzo
Lamborghini Murcielago
Ferrari 288 GTO
list probably NOT complete...
On their website they have quite a lot of other cars :D
We will see, but any V12 will be expensive I suppose.. as the CS..
And BTW.. I see on their price list that usually they offer Ferrari rides at 75€ for an hour.. so will the ride be that long this Sunday? In that case for sure there won't be place for more than 20 or 30 people I suppose!!
noosee

I would pay up to 300$ just to get a fast run around a track on a McLaren F1. Then I could die in peace. I'd like to own one of course, but that is aiming too high!
Just for the records, the cars won't be taken on track, just roads around the rental.. not sure if they will be closed or not, but can't wait!!!!!!

In a couple of hours I'll be gone for the weekend, so I'd like to wish you a lot of fun and drooling there, TT! :D
Shoot some nice pictures and video for us if you can! I'll be checking in sunday evening.
I'm already completely stressed :D I already did to many tests to see how many pics I could take and anyway I'm sure I'll be able to shot a couple of vids ... not in 640x480 res, but a good 320 should be enough.. sadly there is no zoom while filming ;) but well, at least for the sound ;)

yeah, isn´t there any chance that you´ll rent or borrow a decent vid-cam ??? :wink:
i think you won´t regret it...
Sadly no, there are no vid cam rentals here in Lausanne, the closest one is in Geneva, 60 km from here and to rent the camera (not even a DV one) would cost some 200 or more Swiss Francs since I would have to take it Saturday and take it back monday.. plus the time and petrol needed to cover another 120 km.. really not practical...
If I knew about this event soon I could have lured my mother into giving me their Sony DV cam, but my mom lives 400 km from me and the last time I was there was Christmas so I would have needed to know back in 2003 :roll:
and of course she was not to keep to ship it to me the last times I asked her ;)
And again, strangely enough, all my friends have digi-cameras but not a single one is interested in vids :(
No luck :?

how many kms would you make more if passing in Reims ? I have a DV camcorder but i fear it would be too far for you :(
Well, to go from Lausanne to Geissingen passing through Reims would take the original 310 km up to 990 km :roll: sady the three towns form a pretty wide triangle ;) but you could come with me and we could meet up in Germany ;) It would be just some 400 km for you ;)

DO IT :lol:
yann, you know we really need a DV there :D
And do you think I don't NEED it? :D I'm just hoping there won't be to much to film so I won't miss to many opportunities ;)
BTW, I don't really love in car vids ;) especially if I have to savour the experience ;) to play with a camera (not even mine even if I could find one) would maybe just distract me ;)
Anyway I have to live with it :( I just hope the pics will be cool enough and the small vids that my PRO 1 can take will at least show something interesting ;)
Well I spent some more time on their website and I think finally my rusty German managed to make me understand the exact situation:
Cars available to passenger rides:
- Ferrari Enzo
- Ferrari 575M (could even be a 550 since on the website it's stated simply as "maranello")
- Ferrari 360 Spider
- Ferrari Testarossa
- Ferrari F40 (sadly beeing serviced)
- Lamborghini Diablo
- Lamborghini LM002
- Lamborghini Gallardo
that's all.. and this is the list of the cars that will be there just to be seen and admired:
- Maserati Quattroporte
- Bentley Continental GT
- Ferrari 612 Scaglietti
- Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale
- Ferrari Enzo (another one?!?!?)
- Lamborghini Murcielago
- Ferrari 288 GTO
Their lineup is way bigger than that usually: Ferrari: 348 TS, 348 Spider, 355 GTS, 355 Spider, 355 GTS F1, 360 Modena and Spider, 360 Spider F1 with Challenge look, 360 F1 sport, Challenge Stradale, 456GT, Testarossa sport, 512 TR, 550 Maranello, 575M F1, F40, Enzo. The also have a couple of Maserati: 3200 GT and Spider cambiocorsa, a Viper RT/10, a Lincoln limo, an SL55 AMG and a BMW Z1... maybe just locked away :)
