Ferrari Challenge set for this Saturday, September 24 at the 1.7 mile Lime Rock Park road course in Connecticut

 

Not that you need Lime Rock Park to tell you that this Saturday we’re expecting beautiful fall weather for the Ferrari Challenge (or maybe you do!), but here goes:

We’re going to have beautiful fall weather this Saturday, September 24, for the Ferrari Challenge!

Many of the Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli and Coppa Shell teams were testing here yesterday (Tuesday) and we can tell you, their two races are going to be barn-burners.

But Ferrari Challenge at Lime Rock is much more than the racing; that’s what makes this event wonderfully different. It’s a feast of all things Ferrari.

For starters, there will be demonstration laps of Ferrari’s latest models, including the LaFerrari hybrid supercar.

In the Paddock will be a terrific Ferrari-owners Car Corral; Ferrari will have old and brand-new Ferraris on display; and Ferrari’s famed Merchandise Store will be set up and ready to go.

Plus, the race teams’ cars and drivers are easily accessed all day.

Tickets are $55 at the gate – and remember that anyone 16 and under are free, the parking is free, and active military and veterans are free.

So grab your lawn chairs, pack the coolers, charge the batteries in your cameras and head to Lime Rock Park Saturday morning.

The day’s full schedule is shown here.

Oh, to whet your appetite, below are a few more photos from yesterday’s test day, …

Think red!
