    Me and friends of mine planned this trip few months and finally at last weekend we did it.So,the plan was book cheap flight tickets to Milan,Italy.Rent a car and take ride to the Rivanazzano Airport,near Milan.There was an event called Hills race.Drag racing with US made cars,Harley-Davidson's,hot rods,kustoms,air cooled VW's..
    I guess this may sound a bit stupid idea to travel to Italy only for few days,but i think it was totally worth it.There was camping area and friend of mine,Romano from Rumblers C.C. Milan, borrowed two tents from his friend for us.So,big thank you mate and to your friends!
    What a great people!
    I didnt shoot much pics of the newer stuff or air cooled VW's and i know that bikes arent hamb friendly either,but here's some pics that i cl***ify as hamb friendly:

    I was in Italy for 5 months during school and I don't think I saw one American car the entire time. I can't imagine driving a 1958 Chevy through Florence...although that would rule! Thanks for the pics.

    :eek: WoW! Another reason to love Italy... What an Amazing country!!!!

    Guy and Gals, if before you die you have to visit one place, make sure Italy is it. I have tons of pictures but here's a few.. If you're in the doghouse with the old lady, you ont be for years after one trip to Italy..

    I agree with you H Rod 50. We've been there twice and are going again this summer. It seems like the more of Italy I see, the more I want to see. Where is that picture with the boats in the water? I GOTTA get there!

    Finnrodder.....bummer I'll miss the hills race...I'll be there in July
