Update:
I have amazing friends! Since they knew I misssed the last boutique Festivals of Speed event at the Waldorf Astoria in Orlando due to my motor taking over a month longer than expected to be finished...and the fact that I spun another rod bearing and wouldn't be able to make the 2hr drive to Orlando for the Festivals of Speed at the Ritz-Carlton...they rented a trailer and trailered the Viper over Saturday night. I got to drive my friend's 996TT to/from St. Petersburg to Orlando.
What a show though! So many amazing cars and so many people! The weather couldn't have been better. I didn't take too many pictures due to the overwhelming amounts of people and it's kind of a "if you've seen one, you've seen 'em all" type of thing. Cars in attendance were a 1 of 2 Koenigsegg CCXR Special Edition, Maserati MC12, 2 Veyrons (1 of 1 and 1 of 5), and a plethora of Ferraris, Lamborghinis, Astons, classics, etc.
On the way home last night, we dropped my car off back at the shop...now I get to go through the agony of deciding if I want to stick it out with the Viper or maybe a 996TT? I'll post some pictures later tonight.
