MILITIA-OUS INTENT!

Benvenuti Amici!

Every few months we feature owner experiences. It's become something of a tradition to "capture" the experiences of the well-traveled, the adventurous, the passionate. and the inspired. Sometimes the owners find themselves inspired enough to start businesses and, in doing so, inspire other drivers. Sometimes the owners find themselves inspired enough to seek adventures beyond their daily driving experience. This blog entry is meant to pack all of these FIAT life experiences in one tidy holiday package... just for you.

I recently spent some e-time with FIAT500USA regular, Robert Nixon. Robert Nixon (RN). Nixon, among many other things, is a fellow blogger. He and Brian Nixon publish Nixon Motor Sports, a blog they use to share their burning passion for petrol-driven competition.

Team Nixon Motor Sports

CC5C: Model?

RN: I ordered by FIAT 500 Abarth in 2012, and took delivery in September of that year. This is a 2013 model.

CC5C: How are you involved with your local and/or the greater FIAT/ABARTH community?

RN: My main involvement with FIAT is as a moderator on the FIAT500USA forum. I like to attend car shows, local Cars and Coffee events, and try to keep up with the auto industry a little bit. 

CC5C: Why FIAT/ABARTH? What is the primary use of your car?

RN: My Abarth is my daily driver, so I’ve been very happy with it for over 59,000 miles so far. I was attracted to the Italian heritage of the company, and figured that I couldn’t afford a new Ferrari or Maserati, so the return of FIAT to the US got my attention! After test driving the regular 500 and the Abarth, I voted with my gas pedal foot and went for the Abarth. 

CC5C: How long have you tracked your FIAT/ABARTH? What competitions do you take part in?

RN: With the Abarth I started to autocross in 2013, and it’s been a great way to have fun, meet more car fans, and also learn a lot more about my car in general. Thanks to my job I’ve had to move a few times, so I’ve competed at events sponsored by various Sports Car Club of America and other clubs in South Carolina, North Carolina, and Virginia. Earlier this year I drove the Abarth on track at a two-day National Auto Sport Association (NASA) event with an instructor, and that was really fun.

Proof Positive Daily Drivers Can Be Fun

CC5C: Wow! So, you actually track your daily driver?! I think that's an important point for people interested in the brand(s) but uncertain about reliability. Can you speak to that?

RN: The beefier stock suspension on the Abarth enables it to hold up fine on a track day. It’s not going to be a NASCAR or Indy car experience, but it is a ton of fun to drive non-competitive track events. Other great car experiences I’ve had in the FIAT are charity events where you can get on track for a short stint just by donating a toy or money to a charity. Not a race or anything, but I’ve enjoyed at least a few laps at Charlotte Motor Speedway, Darlington, Martinsville, and Virginia International Raceway (VIR) and always had fun doing it for a good cause. 

CC5C: And is tracking a daily driver common? Do you see that a lot? Is there anything else you'd like to add to this point?

RN: I’d estimate that tracking your daily driver is common, but that at some point if you really get into track events with SCCA, NASA, or other groups that you’ll want a dedicated track car. To go with all the racing required safety gear (seat, harness, roll cage, etc.) is a big step up from just doing a high performance driver event with just a helmet and regular seat belts.

CC5C: How have you placed? How has your FIAT/ABARTH held up under the intensity of competition?

RN: At the local event level I think the Abarth is competitive in the SCCA H Street class this year, but it’s not seen much at the big national level events. With fewer drivers at local events I’ve won my class for the past three years, but the main thing for me is having fun driving! The Abarth has held up in great condition to a regular diet of autocross, and like any other car if you compete with it you’ll want to have better tires. I’ve got a second set of wheels and tires for autocross events. Other than regular maintenance of oil changes, spark plugs, and checking fluid levels, I replaced the brake pads this year so that I’d have plenty of pad for the track event. Even then, after four years of autocross, the stock brake pads were performing fine, although the fronts were due to be changed, the rear pads had plenty of life left. In other words, the stock Abarth can take whatever you throw at it!

Stickers Add 10hp to Every Abarth

CC5C: The last bit of your answer brings a new question to mind. How much of your ABARTH 500 is still stock?

RN: Most of the car is stock, I’ve only upgraded the brake pads (still using original rotors), wheels and tires, new slightly larger rear bar, and replaced the stock air filter with a K&N. I have some Koni yellow sport shocks to install for next year, and I might also add lowering springs to lower the center of gravity too.

CC5C: And what kinds of reactions have you received/witnessed from drivers of other makes?

RN: I think most other drivers love seeing the Abarth, as well as hearing it! The exhaust is designed with no muffler so it was designed by FIAT to have a nice sound! To me the sound makes me feel like I’m a 16-year-old all over again, even though I’m way past that age!

CC5C: 'Anything else you'd like to share with our readers?

RN: There are all kinds of driving opportunities out there, so I recommend checking out the race track websites, and find out what your local car club is doing, whether it’s FIAT, Porsche, BMW, Corvette, Mustang, etc.

All Weather + All Wicked

I want to thank Nixon Motor Sports and Robert Nixon for sharing their FIAT-ABARTH life experience via the CC5C blog. This entry serves as my final e-publication for a while. It's been an honor serving the global FIAT and ABARTH community, in this way, since mid-2013. Be sure to check out the Nixon Motor Sports blog to read their exploits and inspire adventures of your own!

CC5Cinema: Return of the Spiders!

Benvenuti amici!

The title of this blog entry tells you everything you need to know about the content therein. We follow-up our short history of the legendary X1/9 with an abbreviated look at the evolution of the FIAT Spider… specifically, the infamous 1966 124 Sport Spider.

Drawing from his [Pininfarina] designs of the  Corvette Rondine & Ferrari 275 GTS, Tom Tjaarda helped FIAT birth a never-to-be-repeated ultimate sunny day driver. Correction. The inventor of the city car recently revealed their plan to deliver a new 124 Spider for 2017 (from a former Pininfarina designer). So, it is due time we revisit what was hinted about here and in our X Marks the Spot entry.

The idea of the original 124 [Sport] Spider took firmly planted root long ago. Like the original 500, she branches from the 508/508C Balilla family tree.

FIAT 508 Balilla Sport

FIAT 508S Bailla Spider

The idea of sporty, or as is truly the case sporting, versions of successful production models is as old as automobile history. The 508 Balilla, itself, earned that very honor. Spider variations of these sport cars had the distinction of competing in Grand Touring. Manufacturers would match their power engineering and body design for homeland and continental supremacy. This is still practiced, today, in closed and open-wheeled endurance Motorsport (following the path paved by FIAT's purpose-built 24hp Corsa). But there was also a burgeoning production niche for these open-aired variants.

FIAT 1100 TV Transformabile

FIAT 1200 Spider

Like many other automakers, FIAT seized the opportunity to capitalize on the increasingly expensive to manufacture sporting coaches. (We owe the very existence of street legal Ferraris to the high cost of racing.) Sport, Sport Spider and… eventually… GIANNINI or ABARTH versions were quickly added to the range or "family" of the most important models. With transformabile, cabrio or spider (Also; spyder and roadster outside of Italy) variants of the 1100 and 1200, the groundwork was laid for the cross-continetal pleasing 124.

The FIAT 124 made good use of the DNA developed in its predecessors and the size-to-power ratio challenge sorted by its older cousins, the iconic 600 and 500. Putting to work all that had been discovered, under the leadership of don Dante Giacosa, countless engineers toiled and finally created a fine 4-door family sedan that worked well in the city and was ripe for range building.

FIAT 124 Sport Famiglia

The 124 family of runabouts was a crucial variable in the success equation of FIAT in the mid-to-late '60s and '70s... complete with the sedan, coupè, wagon and sport models. As the automaker did with so many sales hits before it, the [Oscar Montabone] simple and affordable city sedan was handed to "amici di famiglia" for a fresh look and a quick spin. This time, the task was entrusted to the House of Farina. Of course, the Pininfarina-penned open cockpit version -- of the in-house designed Sport -- was nothing short of elegance on wheels. This further cemented FIAT S.p.A. as the premier producer of the working stiff's sport car… in/outside of Italy.

The coach builder reports 80% of all 124 Sport Spiders ever built were sold in North America, specifically the US of A. So, when rumors of a second coming began circulation the internet was alight with artist renderings and other speculative fodder. I, myself, have seen/read/heard more musings than I can recall in this entry. Rather than add to what you can already find elsewhere, I choose to offer a bit of the past that got us to where we are today. I also offer you comparative photos of vintage 124s and their contemporary counterparts.

As I leave you to your critiquing, I encourage an attention to the details… bonnets, grilles, head/tail lights and forward/rear "overhang". Look to the stance and attitude of what has been built upon the Mazda chassis. Determine, for yourself, whether the modern 124 Spider has retained the soul the Sports and Sport Spiders that came and went before it without aping what their designers delivered to showroom floors. More importantly, post-research and/or investigation, I beseech you to answer two questions.

Does the spirit of the 124 Sport Spider and FIAT Dino Spider burn in the heart of these images? Is there something worth celebrating in this new halo car?

Lines & Curves Do Not Lie

                     

Whether or not FIAT hit the mark with the coming of the ABARTH 500-powered 124 Sport Spider remains to be seen (next summer). Now, for the sake of this fan of hardtops & targas, bring on an Alfa Romeo-powered 124 ABARTH Rally variation. Can you hear all iterations of these wonderful runabouts roaring through backroads, streets and highways now? Heed their call...

Trofeo CC5C 2015!

Benvenuti amici!

While we're in recovery, from a day of too much sun and fun with friends, we put together this report on our field trip to Pirelli World Challenge (PWC) at the legendary Road America race track. The 'tone' of this trip was decidedly marked by a chance meeting with a Fiat Tech board member, Thekler, and Bryan/Joe actively recruiting FIAT-ABARTH owners spotted in the parking area. In fact, one of their contacts blessed us with a Facebook 'Like' and posted a photo of the 'CC5Contatto' card to our page.

For those unaware, Wisconsin's Road America track is the stuff of legend. Robin Miller, Senior Writer for RACER Magazine and IndyCar reporter, proclaims it "the best test of road racing in North America". Officially opening in 1955, the track hosts more than 400 events per year. Fortunately, for true stock car racing fans, it is the perfect setting for this massive event.

Map of Road America Track

The main events, this year, were the Trofeo Maserati and the FORZA Ferrari Challenge. The Cream City Cinquecento Club, as fans of Italian machinery, was especially excited about this program change from the NASCAR practice runs of last year. I don't mean to knock the famous 'stock car' event, but I prefer my racers closer to what I could drive off a showroom floor. Although I don't see the bank account growing to Maserati or Ferrari owning proportions any time soon, these are real cars. They may be track ready, but they aren't purpose built race cars disguised as factory models. The fact both marques belong to the FIAT S.p.A. famiglia further sweetens the deal.

Unfortunately, there was one major disappointment in the 2015 TCA/TCB race. That disappointment was the lack of any FIATs. For some reason, FIAT USA was unwilling or unable to find a driver for their car. Likewise, no independent teams made an appearance. This is quite confusing... FIAT, after all, is a PWC partner and has two major marques showing in all their glory. I trust we'll see a change in the lack of attention the parent brand is getting this season. Time will tell the tale. In the meantime, enthusiasts will need to fill the role of herald to FIAT's legendary performance past. One way we're doing that is by planning events like this one. 

Jewelry: Jolly Club & ABARTH badges

We announced, in our Mighty Mouse Militia blog entry, a desire to add Motorsport activities to our local club events. One of the motivating factors in doing this is our relationship with the North American revival of Jolly Club. Like participants… and fans… of the original Italian Jolly Club, quite a few of the members of the CC5C Famiglia have a level of interest in street, track and course competition. It seemed unfair and, to be frank, silly to miss an opportunity to CC5Caravan to Road America for the Wisconsin leg of the PWC tour. We call this annual event 'Trofeo CC5C'.

Last year, we scheduled the event for the month of July (the birth month of FIAT S.p.A., the FIAT 500 and CC5C). The turnout was less than stellar. Many of our members have children, and schedule their holidays during the summer months. We decided it would benefit the club and event attendees to mate this event with something as exciting as the PWC. The result was better attendance… six FIATs and eleven FIATisti/ABARTHisti… and a fantastic second Mighty Mouse Militia Approved outing.

Upon arrival, we were made aware a Ferrari 458 Italia literally crashed and burned… taking out a rather large section of fence and combusting into flames. Fortunately, the driver walked away with little more than a few scratches  but there would be an extended delay between races. While we waited, we decided to grab a bite to eat. For those of you familiar with past events, we usual end our gatherings with a meal. But "rules are meant to be broken". 

Tifosi United: John & Amado

One very cool benefit to attending Road America races is free access to the paddock. Attendees can get up close & personal with the participating cars, drivers and tech teams. Many of the cars drive right through the outdoor 'cafeteria' area to get to the False Grid. As Mark Beckmann says, "There are 100 ways to get killed at Road America," so you must keep your head up, your eyes peeled and your ears listening.

As you can guess, from the images above, the first race we watched in its entirety was the Trofeo Maserati (Maserati Cup). The first GT-S race of the day ran just before, and we watched some of it as well. The PWC, at times, groups some of the races; GT & GT-S may run together, TCA &TCB may run together. This is due to race times/schedules, but nonetheless guarantees no shortage of the competitors and excitement on the track. Brilliant!

One of the ongoing 'fun activities' of the day was listening for the different engine/exhaust notes of the various manufacturers. This writer may come across as being heavily biased, but I truly believe the Italians engineer the best sounding machines.

Joe & Amado enter SPEEDVILLE

The Road America track has several different observation sites. Many people camp out at their favorite straight or turn. Others make their motorized or people-powered way around the course, to take in as much of the fun as is the variety offers. While this marked my second visit to Road America, this event was the first time I was able to watch the races. I was lucky enough to be in the company of a willing group of adventurers.

We began at the start line and quickly made our way to infamous 'The Carousel' turn.

The Carousel is the point of the track that whips the drivers and their cars back in the direction of the start/finish line. Watching Maseratis blast through 'SPEEDVILLE' was breathtaking. Onlookers are so close to the action it seems one could reach out and touch the cars seen in the paddocks only minutes (or hours) before. This intimate interaction offered at Road America took me back to my childhood years when my father would take my brother & me to 'Great Lakes Dragaway' for Ratrod and Funny Car drag races.

In my opinion, any track that doesn't immediately transport you to your formative years is not a proper course. Racing is primal… the sounds are guttural… the sights should be equally feral in vibe. Hot Wheels, Matchbox, Revell model car kits and Rat Fink cards. Oh my!

After the Trofeo Maserati, we hiked to 'Turns 6 & 7' for the second GT/GT-S run. It was thrilling to watch major super car brands go head-to-head. Ferrari, Mercedes Benz, Audi, McLaren, Bentley, Aston Martin, etc. push their machines to the limit, in order to claim builder and team supremacy. Did I mention the sounds of the engines/exhausts? Well, my friends, it is worth mentioning again.

The final race of the day was, in many ways, the most fun. TCA & TCB class represent our daily drivers. Compacts and runabouts take it to the track and test their mettle far beyond what highway and city driving offers. I'm looking forward to seeing more of it in the future… with FIATs in the running.

The races over, and members slowing breaking away to head home, we too walked back to Sombrita. We took in the green field, reserved for free parking, and spotted an Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT… complete with a Quadrifoglio Verde badge. This is probably the most appropriate way to end our report on the Trofeo CC5C/Pirelli World Challenge at Road America. Maybe we'll make our way out for Vintage Racing in the future?

Stay tuned…

Lancia! LANcia! LANCIA!

Benvenuti amici!

In October 2014, our first ever dedicated Lancia entry went live. That entry was a sort of eulogy to the once indomitable Lancia… as well as a call to properly restore the brand. Challenge? For all intents and purposes, the legendary leader in automotive innovation has never been much more than a 'local hero'. By that I mean Lancia is… historically… an Italian brand for Italians. To reach its full potential, it must be more. To reach its full potential, Lancia must be a global call to slide behind the wheel of a chariot fit for the great Greek gods of old and give it all manner of Hades.

Hades & Cerebus



Question: How does FIAT S.p.A. accomplish this in a fickle marketplace? How does FIAT S.p.A. present Lancia in such a way as not to derail the ABARTH & Alfa brands?

Answer: It may not be as tricky as one would think. Historically & currently, the ABARTH brand caters to what could be described as the F4 level car enthusiast. I mean this literally as well as figuratively. The FIAT-ABARTH division powers FIA Formula 4 race cars. F4 is the entry level of endurance competition. The FIAT-ABARTH cars, including Punto & 500, are entry level Italian sports coupés.

Alfa Romeo has a strong historical link to endurance competition and, in the 2015 Formula 1 season, will be reunited with Ferrari (the marque that, in large part, owes its start to Alfa Romeo). F1, Ferrari & Alfa Romeo burn off excess fuel under the foot-to-pedal of a far more exclusive clientele base. That leaves a great deal of Italian motorsport heritage & back roads motoring without proper representation... in Italy and abroad.

Enter the once powerful, now limp on life support, Lancia Automobili S.p.A.. There are two occasions, in recent history, FIAT S.p.A. seemed poised to properly reboot the 'Lance'. Between 2003 and 2008 the automotive media was buzzing with rumors of production runs on a new concept introduced by Lancia. The concept was inspired by the 1965 iteration of the Fulvia Coupé. The original Fulvia was the final winner of the precursor to WRC (World Rally Championship). The IMC (International Championship for Manufacturers) was also an FIA rally-style Motorsport event. The modern iteration never rolled out.

Perfectly executed 2003 Lancia Fulvia Concept

Remained poised for production until 2008

In 2005, a design house called Fenomenon proposed the first Stratos-inspired concept since 1978. Once again, in 2010, we would be taken down the annals of Lancia's rally heritage. The 2010 concept was also inspired by the 1973 Ferrari V6-powered Stratos HF. The significance of its ancestor cannot be overstated. The legendary Stratos took the first three WRC titles. It is safe to say it was much more than just another beautiful Italian machine. Despite their respective perfect conceptual execution, neither the 2005 nor the 2010 concepts ever saw production. The obvious question is… "Why?"

2005 Fenomenon: Have Sexy | Will Travel

Perfectly powered by Ferrari F430

Stratos 2010: Forbidden Fruit

The fact these concepts exist at all makes it clear FIAT knows exactly what their rabid fans want more than anything else. The Fulvia concept is muscularly luxurious… a description that pretty much sums up what pre-70s Lancia was/is for all enthusiasts. Likewise, the Stratos concepts… especially the 2010 iteration… harken back to a time when the Terror from Torino specialized in innovation. The 2010 proposal harnessed the power of the Ferrari donor car on a shortened wheel base. I find myself salivating uncontrollably at the thought. With the ABARTH as well as the revitalized Alfa range, we're seeing small cars harnessing good power & torque. The 2010 Stratos takes this idea to its insane maximum.

So, with worthy successors to the throne, the question begs an answer to… "Why not?" That question may never be answered -- at least not in a way petrol heads can stomach. Sergio Marchionne, FIAT CEO, repeatedly insists Lancia is not a viable business venture outside the Italian marketplace. In the time since the CC5C blog & club were founded, I have read countless claims (posted in forums and the official Lancia Facebook page) FIAT is not interested in exploiting what Lancia has done better than any other marque in rally history. And it's difficult to argue with the accusation.

While under FIAT ownership, and despite Lancia retiring from rally in 1992, the brand still holds the records for the most overall and the most consecutive WRC titles. Still, look for any current news and you will be lucky to find anything other than the latest Elle magazine special edition color combination. But, given the aforementioned news about ABARTH & Alfa Romeo FIA sponsorships, the Agnellis & Marchionne could easily brush off such claims as mindless ramblings. So, perhaps the real question is… "How can we?"

I would suggest looking to Subaru. Since the 1995 introduction of the Outback, the "7-star cluster" has become synonymous with off road driving as well as rallying. They've created a entire range of muscular versions of standard people movers. Those musclebound versions dominate their sales (Impreza is practically an entire range). What if FIAT marketed Lancia as a complete range of Quadifoglio Verde/ABARTH/SRT beasts... filling the void between the FIAT and Jeep ranges? What if Lancia was reintroduced as the definitive brand of AWD (all wheel drive) sexy sedans & sport coupés? The technology in modern automobiles has made it possible to marry power and fuel efficiency to varying degrees. If the 22nd placed global automaker can do it, surely 'the Fixer' and his fearless pit crew can get it sorted and on the right track. 

Question: FIAT, can you hear the cries?

LANCIA! LANCIA! LANCIA!

Mighty Mouse Militia est. 2015

Benvenuti amici!

Cream City Cinquecento Club a/k/a CC5C or CCCC was created to appease my desire to promote the FIAT brand (culture, lifestyle, design) philosophy. There is one critical cornerstone of FIAT heritage I initially left out of the club… that is performance. The club was too new, the missus & I were the only members and I don't take part in regular track days or AutoX. It's not my area of expertise. But I do enjoy recreational karting, I support Scuderia Ferrari and I did have lots of fun at the 2014 ABARTH Track Experience. While taking part in the FIAT-ABARTH 'Drive for the Fans' program, I discovered a desire to, in some way, offer that slice of the FIAT life experience to our local club as well as global blog & Facebook supporters.

Sr Giacosa's 1958 FIAT 500 Sport

It's important to note, prior to going any further, Motorsport activity is nothing new to the Italian automaker. FIAT designed & built the first ever purpose-built race coach in 1902 ... the 24 HP Corsa. There have been many models to carry the torch throughout the evolution of the brand. Today, the 500 Sport (in appearance and some engineering aspects, since it originally appeared in 1958), 500T (a/k/a Giannini), ABARTH 500 & the upcoming 500X keep that driving-for-sport tradition. Behind the wheel of Sombrita, I finally feel as though this is the perfect time to propose a loonier side of the FIAT life experience… 

... Mighty Mouse Militia (MYT MAUS MILITIA or M3).

The Legend & His Army of Tiny Terrors

What's in a name?

The original 1936 standard 500 is called 'Topolino' or 'Mickey Mouse', so a feisty 500 would be a 'Mighty Mouse'. No? For me, the name makes a direct reference to 500s... despite the fact the 'Mouse' part of the name could be about any small FIAT (or other true city car, for that matter).

That leaves us with the 'Militia' bit. Well, let's leave that to Merriam-Webster.

1. a) a body of citizens enrolled for military service, and called out periodically for drill but serving full time only in emergencies.

FIAT 500TV Giannini & 126GPA 800 Giannini

Unlike CC5C, M3 contains no reference to any nation or city. Anyone from/in any part of the world born to any ethnicity can fit right in. However, the name does make reference to something linked directly to FIAT and the small cars the automaker produces... along with the crazed loyalty they inspire in their drivers. Even the term 'FIATista' evokes a sort of militant loyalty to the brand. 

So, we now have a purpose and name. To be clear… this is in no way replacing what CC5C is all about. It is enhancing what CC5C is all about. This is something our local club can easily share with various groups in other cities, states regions and countries… in a more inclusive way.

In my area, we're organizing a spirited Road America jaunt to serve... from last year on... as the Trofeo CC5C. You can read a bit about it here. The Trofeo event simply did not work as a regular CC5Cruise. That is likely because it doesn't fit into the typical laid-back CC5C gathering mold. These Mighty Mouse gatherings could/should/would be for the most part spirited and Spartan-like. Other examples of CC5C Mighty Mouse-type activity can be read here and here. We're already working with other individuals & groups to get things rolling outside the Milwaukee a/k/a Cream City Metro area.

Mighty Mouse Militia ABARTH

Mighty Mouse Militia GIANNINI

We consider FIAT Tech, Jolly Club & SoCAL ABARTH Club to be a few of the key supporters in the North American Mighty Mouse Militia success puzzle. We opened up a dialog with those aficionados, similarly obsessed with the heritage of this brand, about the M3 logo and purpose. Everyone added their two cents to the overall vibe of what M3 should be, ensuring we weren't diluting what they already offer the community. As we see it, the informal motoring group can & should be represented by several individuals and other clubs from all over the world. No borders. No boundaries. Just fun.

Finally, for those committed to the cause, we are currently offering three versions of the Militia grille badge on GoBadges. In addition, we offer more affordable 2"x2" vinyl stickers (available via the EuroCompulsion Gear page). The logo incorporates the CC5C wreath, paying homage to over one hundred years of auto racing and Italian Driving Social clubs. The Giannini lightning bolt & ABARTH scorpion represent FIAT Motorsport tradition as well as the in-house rivalry between the two carrozzerias. They are available in ABARTH giallo, GIANNINI azzurro and RECORD grigio. Fans of the either of the two tuning mavericks, Motorsport and/or our can match one or all to their runabout of choice. We are also working on designs for a line of Mighty Mouse Motoring inspired t-shirts.

'Not into any of that? 'Just looking for another something cool to stick to your ride? I think you'll find these get you there fast. Get'cher motor running & stayed tuned...
