Cool UPDATED PICS -Ferrari Day at Pocono Raceway

DAMN is all I can say. What a great day. Weather couldn't have been better. I had a great ride up, latched on to a little caravan led by an F-car and two MB AMGs (one was a sedan and one that sleek coupe I don't know MBs) Hooked up with an M3 on the approach to the Speedway. Told him about X5 World, let's see if he shows up.

I AM HOOKED. I had no idea Pocono had a road track. Thought it was just the 2 1/2 mile tri-oval that they run NASCAR on. I did about 10 laps riding shotgun in my buddy's Viper. Fookin incredible. The force is unbelievable. Those cars just stick to the roadway like they are on rails.

I'll update with pics later. Plenty of 430s, 360s., some smaller Ferraris (don't know the numbers, I'm just a girl, remember) Z06s, plenty of P cars, Vipers, a Lamborghini Countach (sp), Lotus, a couple of M3s and a Maserati. I want to be a race car driver. It felt good shaking my hair out of that helmet

EDIT - It's only letting me post one pic per page Scroll to end.

sounds like you had a great time..

When I lived in NY, I used to love driving Pocono.
I've driven the East configuration, North Configuration and Long configuration of the road course oval..

Long was my favorite.

Laura,

Next time try to get the X5 out for a couple laps, you'll be surprised how well the car holds it own.

I thought about it. Felt stupid with all those exotics there. If I had gotten there earlier, instructors were taking the amateurs out and showing them their lines and ascertaining their skill levels. I was the only non sports car. Although, there was a VW Golf running around with the white class.

All I can say is, driver beware.. The track is very, very, very addictive.
We'll probably see a post from you in the next year,
Should I sell my X5 and get the new M3 ?

6er for me! CmyM6go works, don't you think?
The first left turn from the straight away onto the road track was sharper than 90 degrees, then went into a hard right. I couldn't believe how fast we were going, thought for sure we were going to flip.
