While we are waiting to confirm something about Torvec, you reminded me of Wegman's parking lot. One day a year or so ago I actually did see a red Ferrari in the Pittsford Wegman's lot. Nice summer day so I tried to check it out and make sure it wasn't some kind of Camaro kit car. It was the real deal. Perfect metalwork, fit & finish, interior, a pretty awesome car. Parked near the end of the lot, but near other cars. Would all those other drivers understand how rare that car is? Probably, there wasn't a mark on it. Had a license plate holder with Canandaigua stamped in the border. It's been a while so I can't remember which model it was. Maybe a 599 or a 458. I looked it up at the time and found out there was a two year waiting list for that model.
At the other end of the Plaza, on the same kind of summer day, I was picking up a RX at Rite Aide and saw a sort of Cobra. White with blue racing stripe, open cockpit, cut down windshield, but sort of older look to it. Turns out it was a Arnolt/Bristol. Very rare.
Your remark reminds me that this kind of chance encounter make me go kind of nuts, but other people, like my wife, say it's a 'nice' car. I wish I had at least a little bit of their objectivity. As to the 'sighting,' I could care less at this point. Unless it is someone who can write a big order for mining parts, pumps or OEM car parts, I'm not sure what another name brings to the party, but I have no idea what's going on at Mt. Read, so good luck to whatever.
Maybe it's because it is Tax day, but I think at least one wheel has come off this economy and Torvec might be in a race to make something happen before the world figures out a way to move off the increasingly shrinking dollar. On that note and with your taxes paid, I'll point out that the Bristol looked like it would be kind of uncomfortable outside of a historic race. The Ferrari was everything you could imagine times 10, good and bad. EOM
