And believe me there are many. Frank is one of the F1 Clienti customers of Ferrari. They are the uber-special customers whom Ferrari doesn't have to ask if they want to buy a new model, they just know they will.

Speaking of which, there will be an F1 Clienti event this coming weekend at Hockenheim. From what I've been told from a good friend who is one of those lucky members, there will be 13 customer Ferrari F1 cars there. 1 F2003-GA, 1 F2002, 3 F2001 (I suspect Frank will be bring his), 1 F1-2000 images/smilies/thumbsup.gif and a bunch of older ones.

Ferrari might also put on a demo with an older car, probably a GA or F2004 though I think the GA will be more likely. My hunch says Bertolini or Gene will be the driver.

Cheers and here's Frank at the 04 Celebrations at Monza:

That episode was great! I know we say it every time, but 5th Gear is really getting better and better.

Tiff's review was very good, and adding the horse was very Top Gearish. images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

Vicki had really good patience. I would have been yelling "put your foot down!".

I was cringing throughout the MC12 segment, but I'd probably drive it in the snow right away too.

Why would you want to see practical vehicles? If you want those, go test drive them yourself at a local dealer.

This week on Fifth Gear:

Tiff tries out the new Ford Windstar while picking up stamps at the post office.

Vicky sees if the all around visibility of the Chevy Cavalier is up to snuff.

Tom investigates if the air conditioning in the F-150 is better than that of the Tacoma.

Would love to get that speed from across the globe, but I'm not that lucky. It's from a Norwegian server. Not public, though.

How do you know he didn't? We never got to see what he chose, just him playing with it before he started?

I wish i wasnt behind this damn uni firewall and i could grab it, anyone want to put it up on an ftp for me to push to a unix machine on the other side of this firewall images/smilies/smile.gif

that'll teach the uni to make mysql data to go on a different drive, making the quota system defunct on the data in the database images/smilies/smile.gif

think sequential giant 'blobs' in the database images/smilies/smile.gif
