Title: Ferrari Racing Days - Silverstone
Post by: chungster on September 16, 2012, 05:27:28 pm
Thought I'd pop along to this today to nosey at some Ferrari's. Found out this includes the F1 Clienti / XX Programmes for the oh so posh people who are able to buy ex F1 cars, the 599XX / FXX specials. Weather looked ok so why not!

Missed out on getting in for free via Pistonheads (700 places signed up for inside 2 hours doh) but as it was cheap entry thought what the hell lets check it out!

Was totally worth while i have to say!

Mainly went to see the F1 Clienti / XX Programmes so didn't get to watch the Trofeo races unfortunately. They attempted the world record breaking parade of 1000 Ferrari's yesterday (not sure they achieved it though) but still a few showed up today.

Cheers guys.

Was impressed with the owners of these cars - certainly put their foot down and gave them a work out.

The new F12 Berlinetta is very very nice also.  :love:
