Ferrari Mailing List: Re: NFC, (ok a little) "biography" of Enzo

[Michael James (cavallino_rapante]

Being fascinated with anything and everything associated with the Cannonball, 
I'd be VERY interested in hearing about the Yates/Gurney Ferrari 
Daytona......more, please!
 
BTW, what was Brock's first Ferrari?

   I doubt that any of you were there, but at the Natl. FCA event I am
   guessing mid 80's and I believe in Atlanra ...Brock was a feted author
   and gave a seminar ( which was more of a book signing).....Because I
   had known Brock ( He bought his first Ferrari from me) and had spent
   some amount of time with him "Canon Ball Baker" Daytona not as a
   participant but as in we supplied the car to he and Dan G.......
   At any rate and as usual I digress.......Brock took the podium and
   started to speak about Enzo in a less than positive light   ( read his
   book)....I stood up and asked him why he would choose to speak as he
   was at a Ferrari event and then left the room.......I like Brock and
   have since the day I met him, but have always had some reservations
   about his writing style....
   And, that is all for today, Phil
