First time seeing this for me!

Cool story, lots of fantastic pictures. I just wish Mike was over here to share it instead of me.

Also, yes it's an Enzo, not an FXX like the title says. Whoever wrote the title of this thread is a moron.

Some of the pics ...

I'll stick to keeping mine on.

Actually, the story says they had to swap engines overnight, ran out of time and just ran the day like that.

I don't care what anyone says about these cars, I think they're awesome cars even as modified, and they drive them, A LOT. It's so amazing going on runs with these guys. They really are car guys, and they really love their cars.

Zahir's Enzo is going through a FULL restore, with a new engine build as well. Should be hella fast when it's back here in the spring. Plus he's putting a new nose on it, more like the real FXX. The MC12, Enzo and Murcielago were all modified by Edo. Wicked cars. And wicked photographs by Mike. I wish he'd join here too.
