If money where no object, where would you go on your dream vacation?

 

I'd do the 1000 km from Vienna to Nice, France. It's not the direct way and does meander to hit many highpoints, but in German is know as Die Traumstrasse von Europa (The dream road of Europe). I've done 2 of the 3 main parts. Tod do it right and see the major points plan on 2 weeks.
I've sailed between numerous of the Carib islands, and with the right people along it's quite an adventure.
Otherwise, just go to New Zealand; you'd never regret it.

 

Australia for a couple days to fish for a Black Marlin and Great White. Germany for 2 days to drive 180 MPH on the autobaun. Maui for two weeks to enjoy life and SCUBA. Five day driving school at Bob Bondurants (sp?). Catch a ball game in every Major League park in the league. That should take up my summer!!

 

It all sounds wonderful. But I have to agree on New Zealand. I have not yet been there, but everyone that I know agrees that it is captivating.

 

Sounds like a plan: But you had better do it very soon as there is a movement to restrict the speed for "Green House" reasons on the Autobahn to 130 KPH .

I now regret that I did not spend the money out of my pocket to rent a Porsche on one of my trips to Germany. As I no longer go there. :-( Although, on my last trip there I did get to have a Mercedes S420 (quite an impressive vehicle) that was good for 240 KPH flat out (149 MPH). Although, I could not even think about keeping up with that motorcycle :-)

If you go to Maui for SCUBA you have to experience Molokini and "Turtle Town". May I also suggest that you include the "Blue Hole" or Shark Ray Alley in Belize on that trip.

Ever since I read the Brock Yates book Sunday Driver back in the early 70's I wanted to attend the Bondurant school. As I am on the East Coast, I have settleed for the the Skip Barber School twice over the last Score.

 

I not too sure my wife would think this was great but I'd love to have a little bitty vintage sports-car (not too fussy; any of these would do - Ferrari 250GTO, Ferrari 275, Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe, Maserati Tipo 60/61

Viva Italia!!

 

Anywhere WARM & WET!

Throw in lots of Scuba diving and an opportunity to drive fast cars. Oh, be sure there is plenty of scantily clad eye candy around.

Make it english speaking.

If I am going to one of the big races, I have to be pit crew (if I can't be the driver).

The Carribean from Roatan to parts North is great for the Scuba. Much better than most exotic places like Hawaii.

 

All right!!

They could shop and with all our money we wouldn't care.

I never made Monaco but I have had the thrill of LeMans - 1961 & 1962. Yes, they were still doing the traditional LeMans run-to-the-car-starts and in fact, some we still wearing short sleeve shirts! Someday I hope to show you my most charish set of photos from those days. I made a copy of my color slides from 1962 for Phil Hill. They are that good. I was there for a week before the race and spent a lot of time in the pits. Surprise, right?
