Default Impression

Today I was driving along and saw a brown Dino Ferrari.

It took me back to an image I still have to this today. The most lasting Impression I have as a teenager just starting to get interested in cars was coming back from Oran Park. I was in a Datsun 1600 (yes I’m that old) with some mates coming back from a great day at the races.

Not much traffic going the opposite direction when our driver noticed a car weaving its way (not speeding mind you) through the traffic. It was the brown Dino. It came up behind our Datsun, we started waving and going on stupid as teenagers do. The Dino waited for a gap in the oncoming traffic then Whoosh !! he pulled out and was around us in no time flat.

The cool part was after he got past us he slowed down, raised his harm up though the sun roof and gave us the thumbs up sign and then disappeared down the winding road.

I can’t look a Ferrari without remember that day.



Anyone else have an impression that has stayed with you over the years (good ones, please no Murphy references)
