- Part two: the drive -
Now this was our first time to an event like this so I wasn’t exactly sure what to expect. Was it going to be a parade of uber rare and racy exotics? Single file up the highway Rose Bowl parade style? Or, more of a free form sprinted drive of sorts? We were soon to find out. Our team leader had announced the time we were heading north. Shortly thereafter we had a sort of “drivers meeting”, no bump drafting was the word of the day (more…)
- Part one: The meet up at Lamborghini of Miami -
My friend and fellow MyDailyDrive.com writer Peter said to me last fall; “super car weekend is awesome you can’t miss it. More super cars in one place than you can see anywhere else! Every thing from a Jaguar XJ 220 to a Ferrari FXX.”
You know what? He was right on the money.
The name has been changed from “Super Car Weekend” to (more…)
I had a few days off work so I figured it would be nice to go home and spend some time with my parents over the weekend. Home, as you probably know by now, is in Sarasota, Florida. I love going home for a few days and just relaxing. I’ll usually take a drive or two down to the beach and cruise around by the water. The scenery is amazing, and the cars I usually spot are pretty amazing as well. Just like when I lived in Miami, I never know what I’ll see just driving down the road. This past weekend was no different. On Saturday my dad and I jumped in the Jeep, took the side windows and rear window down, and drove around for a couple of hours, stopping at a few different locations to snap some photos. The first car we spotted was worthy of the top spot, or so we thought: A gorgeous black Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano that was parked outside of the Ritz Carlton hotel.
With the way fuel prices have been the past few years, I’m pretty sure someone who has to put $60 worth of diesel fuel into their Ford Excursion just to get around 10 miles per gallon wouldn’t be the happiest camper in the world. In Gainesville, Florida we have found a perfect solution for those pesky prices at the pump. Yes, the same Gainesville, Florida that is also know as Titletown, USA and home to THE University of Florida (Go Gators!!!). What’s the great idea that has been going on for years here? Scooters. That’s right, scooters. The roughly 50,000 UF students, not to mention the other 15,000 students that attend Santa Fe College down the road, have found out that using scooters for their primary mode of transportation can save them lots of time and more importantly, lots of money.
