A vicious FAILED pass attempt by the uphill Porsche... coming downhill into the hairpin... this guy barely caught the car! I was bracing for a wreck. Of course I didn't get the shot when he was nearly using the side windows for forward vision! (Hey! I know that trick!)

That is why you keep your side windows clean...
Did you put the flowers out on the turn for Bob yet ?

I think one of my other customers business partner's did the same thing a few weeks ago while in Monaco. Was the car rental place next a perfume factory. They went to go tour the factory with his wife and wound up at the dealer test driving a 430 for 2 hours around town with an instructor.
Small world
This is the outfit ----- and I did "all three" 60 minute drives in one longer version. So did a pickup at the hotel -- drove to Nice - turned around came back and went south of Monaco on a different road -- then back to Monaco. Was worth the time spent as it was a great way to see the way people live here - and the roads they drive on daily -- and of course all narrated by a guy that lives in the village of Eze.... which is just absolutely a spectacular village! Google it and you'll see what I mean.

You can't get anywhere near the track - so that's going to be impossible! This is the most controlled circumstances I've ever seen. I mean you just wouldn't believe where you CAN'T GO!
Your "ticket" gets you THERE ONLY.... otherwise you can't get to another area of the track. Luckily we have a VIP deal at 48 Rue Grimaldi for Sat/Sun... so I can see other parts of the track 'cause I'm already bored with the hairpin!
You want to see this race from any vantage point ---- or multiple vantage points - bring THOUSANDS of dollars. And I'm not joking when I say that. THOUSANDS.... PER PERSON. PER VENUE. Or watch it on TV. You don't just buy "a ticket" and get to wander around and see what you want. A ticket gets you ONE location and that's it!
Amazing stuff Greg! Its mind boggling to think of the wealth that is concentrated there.
Now get off of here and go enjoy!!
Well --- it's evening here -- so we're just cleaning up and getting dressed to go out for dinner... Thus fewer posts from me - and probably at what looks like odd times.
The display of money that I've seen here is unimaginable... And I lived in New York City for 7 years... and have been to Tokyo and Hong Kong... and Beverly Hills -- and frankly - where I live now is pretty on the uppity scale (Microsoft and Amazon and Starbucks wealth) but we don't live this way... not by a long shot!
