Rear View Mirror 4-7-14

G’day to you all out there in Forzaland. This week Rear View Mirror is bringing you coverage of Formula One, Formula Drift on the streets of Long Beach and a few special features.

I was one lucky boy today, read RVM to find out why.

See you in the thread folks.

And to those who cheered me on regarding my house, I got it, I GOT IT! Thank you for your support friends, I am so stoked.

Read it, post about it!

Am I the only one not seeing the RVM yet?

Never mind. It showed up. Great RVM as always, John! But first, congrats on the house! That’s awesome news and I’m sure your ecstatic. It sounds like to had a pretty great week all in all. Great racing all around this weekend, especially for F1 as my boy Hamilton won his second straight and looks as if Mercedes could dominate the season. I also got to watch the postponed NASCAR race today from Texas and what a great finish. I thought Gordon had it there at the end, but just came up a little short. But he does have the points lead and I have a good feeling with Darlington coming up Saturday night. Should be exciting.

I’m sure you had a great time driving the Ferrari 458 spider, which happens to be the car in the thumb. :slight_smile: I love racing season!

Hi John,
Really nice RVM this week. “Desert City” looks like a blast! The start of the race is pretty cool, but not sure how the middle of the pack can see what they are about to drive through or into!

I believe the car you asked us to post about is the Ferrari 458 Spyder in the RVM thumb.

Thanks for the RVM,

“brand new 458 Spyder” for thumb. I once got to sit in an F40 for about 30 seconds, the seat felt like it was made for me. I still can’t believe the guy at the car show was letting anyone who wanted to sit in it, the line was about 150-200 people long but well worth the wait to sit down and grab the wheel with one hand and the shifter and just dream for half a min.

How about a Ferrari 458 spyder and it looked like you had a blast. Happy for you and glad you didn’t leave the parking lot and your career. LOL

It would of turned into “John Schommer’s Day Off” where the Ferrari ends up kicked down a bridge or cliff.

Congrats on the house John, you must be thrilled! Add that to the fact that you got to sit in and drive around a 458 Spyder(which is the car in the thumbnail) and it seems you had an eventful week!

Very jealous of Spidey getting to drive those 3 cars haha. Driving a Gallardo Superleggera is definitely something I want to cross off my bucket list some day as it’s my dream car! It sucks what happened to Spidey in the Lambo, and on the last lap too. At least he was well enough to go out in the Scuderia the next day, getting to drive cars like that is a such rare opportunity!

The car in question is the 458 italia spider.

Ferrari 458 Spyder in the thumb this week and yes, I would love a gift car :slight_smile:
