jjs 60 Report post Posted June 23, 2009 Spotted this link as an ad on the Herald website and got very excited. But, does anyone know more detailed information - i.e. are they actually displaying any F1 car(s)? If so, it would be sooo badass! Link Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Silver Fox 43 Report post Posted June 23, 2009 The speed show at Manukau last year had Dixon's Indy car, and a Ferrari F1, 2007 version from memory. The F1 was sooooo small beside the Indy car. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Random Guy 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2009 Imagine my surprise when I saw David Coultards previous years car on display at a car yard in Palmerston North a few years ago. The cockpit was tiny. Almost no press or advertising that it was there. If I wasn't cruising around as a rep looking for something to do I would have missed it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greenday-rulz21 5 Report post Posted June 23, 2009 Ferrari in Auckland had one of Schumacher's old F1 cars a few months back. Had all the sign writing removed for some reason. Probably cause its now owned privately. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nobimmer 694 Report post Posted June 23, 2009 I think I remember seeing something about that. Didn't the guy have his own Ferrari collection in Aus somewhere? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grant 4 Report post Posted June 23, 2009 The speed show at Manukau last year had Dixon's Indy car, and a Ferrari F1, 2007 version from memory. The F1 was sooooo small beside the Indy car.Funny you should say that. I watched the Ohio Indy race and then immediately afterwards watched the F1. I was thinking that the F1 cars looked like toys after watching Indy. I'm off to the Indy cars at Sonoma in a few weeks. Am looking forward to it. It is a road course too so it should be good.

E30 325i Rag-Top 2934 Report post Posted June 24, 2009 Prices seem pretty reasonable: Tickets are $12 for adults, $5 for children between 5 and 15, and under-fives are free. Will look at bringing my tribe down to this, any particular dates in August? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Simon* Report post Posted June 24, 2009 I think Ollie's going to suggest around Wed 5th August as that's when he's passing through but a weekend might suit the rest of us quite a lot better Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
