Re: The McLaren F1 Owner's Club

To all Mclaren lovers
I am sorry I couldn't publicise this Tour, but many owners are publicity shy and I had to ensure the first Tour was discreet and fun for the owners. I think they all loved it and what better place to have it than in Ferrari land.
Thanks for all your kind comments, but I love these cars and they need a place to play, so the 20th anniversary - to the weekend was the time to start - together with an opening visit and address from the inspiration and creator of the car.
There will be more but there are rules of engagement for those asked to appear. I decided to start with Erik and Philippe who have both been impeccable in their handling of the Tour.
I drove 05R, 064 and 072 - the last with its new owner and wife - they were quite silent as we hit 140 mph through the Garda tunnels, but he now knows how it goes and how it stops!
BTW - Buses forbidden on Tours
We also have to thank Mclaren who supported the event technically and brought along 6 budget Macs for owners to sample - they are quicker than the F1!!!

Regards
