A day in a Ferrari 550 Maranello!

[TT]

And what a day! Sadly passenger seat only, and after dingo's report it could sound a bit boring, but hell it wasn't!

To make a long story short: this weekend there is a Ferrari meeting in the Alps, this guy I know, who happens to own a 355 GTS and a 550 wanted to go and asked me if I wanted to go with him.. well, you can guess the answer! So today at 7:45 am I was parking my 320 and I was jumping into his 550.
It has a Tubi exhaust, and that's really good news since stock 550 are very quiet and not that fun!

The meeting was more than 100 km away, alpine roads included.. how cool is this?????? The 550 is an amazing machine, it pulls very strong, it grips great and with the Tubi exhaust it turns heads and sounds gorgeous!

We arrived there and discovered which other cars were taking part.. stuff like 288 GTO (black), 250 GTO '64, an old 250 Europa, 275 GTB, some 360CS, included one with opening roof and red/white/red stripe, F40 and a total of 40 cars...sweetness, and great to be there with a Ferrari since the parking lot was opened to owners and co-pilots only :arrow: easier to take pics and enjoy the day!
In the morning there was a rally, with 60 km of alpine roads, various tests along the road and so on.. it was again GREAT!
Back in Crans Montana, JC my hero gave passenger rides to ppl (you could just pay 20 CHF and jump on one of the cars for a quick blast.. LOT of ppl was waiting for that).
More pics, more fun and then back home with 250 pics and some vids

Time to edit them.. it was amazing!

Here are just a couple of 550 pics and onboard video, I hope to post the meeting pics soon, but later today I will have online around 80 pics of another Ferrari meeting

Little pause on the road in the early morning... such a sweet car
