RALLY FROM LOS ANGELES TO MONTEREY
Onlookers crowded every side street in Westlake as the group left the O’Gara Maserati dealer and proceeded to the freeway for the 300 mile journey. Most of us had never seen so many cell- phones out, taking photos, as we passed by the crowd! In addition to the cellphone cameras, TLC AiR was on site at the launch, destination, and many places in between with their latest 4K video camera drone. They captured amazing footage from the event all of which can be viewed on the event website:
ItalianStampede.com. With minimal traffic on this year’s route, the ride up to the
halfway point for lunch was smooth (well… for most of us; a cou- ple drivers earned speeding tickets in the first hour). We all arrived safely to fill up the cars, have a quick lunch, and then get back on the road. This year’s lunch was again paid for by Jeff Kreitzman, the very generous owner of Zenna tires and a man that is always the first to order the newest Lamborghini model. As we left the fuel-and-lunch stop to get back on the road to
Monterey, a repeat of the same spectator attention occurred- cell- phone cameras snapping photos and video from every direction! The nice roads tempted us to let the cars do what they do best, but for safety reasons and because of thick California Highway Patrol presence, the group kept things calm after lunch. All made it safely (and legally!) to their hotel destinations in Monterey. Once everyone settled into their hotels and had a brief hour or two to relax, most gathered at the Monterey Hilton for an Italian Stampede welcome to Monterey party. The event was sponsored by Cats Exotics, a family car dealer business, friend, and supporter of the Italian Stampede from year one. The party featured excellent food and drink and many friends to share post-event conversation with.
Planning for the 2016 event is well underway, so if you can
make it, it’s worth the trouble of traveling to California. Any Ital- ian make is invited to join, and if you do not own an Italian car, renting anything from a Fiat to a Maserati, Lamborghini, or Ferrari is welcomed! LA VITA
En route on the Stampede, Miss Aida from Lamborghini Beverly Hills leads the way.
