Default Pictures from Ferrari Racing Days at Lime Rock

Wow, lots of Ferraris. There were 3 Enzos, to a 250 GTO :shock: . Although it was Ferrari Racing days, Maseratis were also invited along wtih pre 1950's Alfas. It was a weekend double header with the Challenge races yesterday and today, along with the classic races. The Classic races were split up into the Disk brake catagory which includes 512 BB/LM 333SP (prototype roadster) 355 Challenges and a few other classics pre 2000. The Drum Break catagory had all other vehicles mostly from 40s to 70s. Lots of hot cars in the parking lot, and suprisingly more Porsche's than Ferraris (in the lot).

355


355 Berlinetta


355 Challenges

yeah Ferrari's are nice and all but is that an real Shelby or an original Shelby from the 60's in original condition worth over $1 million cold hard cash? there are only 10 fully original still in existence that are known of.

It isn't in original condition, it has a rebuilt engine and some suspension restoration.

well he said it was rebuilt but still they are ungodly rare and barely drivin if original production. Most real Shelby Cobras you see on the road or at shows are considered the second run cars which are still being produced by Shelby to this day in Las Vegas. Also alot of people have kit cars and replicas from companies like Factory 5 and what not. which are almost 100% except the symbols and absence of the Shelby name on the glove box (original run).
