Ferrari's in the Finger Lakes

SSR290 · 09-01-2007, 06:51 PM

Each year the Corning, NY area hosts a Ferrari meet. This year it was an International group meet with class Judging.
This was held in downtown Corning on Thursday and called "The Art of Ferrari". I was not able to make the event but a
friend who is a Photographer was there and took quite a few pictures. He sent a CD home for us to check out this weekend.
Some of these vehicles are valued at over 10 Million dollars.

With his permission I am posting some of my favorites.

Great weekend in The Finger Lakes! The FCA Annual Meet was held over the past 5 days in Corning and Watkins Glen. Here are some more shots representing the progression of Ferrari Supercars.....

1. F40 on the track at Watkins Glen
2. F50
3. F60 or Enzo
4. FXX (Track Only) at Watkins Glen

1. On the track at Watkins Glen
2. Ferrari 166 (S/N 0006MM)
3. Ferrari 250TR
4. Action on the track at Watkins Glen

What a wonderful venue. If you get the chance, take in Watkins Glen and the Finger Lakes district.

Parothed97;

Too bad I didn't know you were in the area, we could have hooked up and did a
little Run of our own thru the area. We took a ride up the East side of Seneca
Lake on Sunday, stopped at a couple of Wineries and took some pics. Weather
was absolutly perfect, 80 degrees and not a cloud in the sky.
Must have spotted a least 6 Ferrari's tooling around or parked at a Winery.

There were more than 130 Ferraris on the track alone and closer to 250 in total. As many as I've ever seen in 1 place. Each of the events you have planned should be great, especially the Wings of Time museum. Did you notice a DC3 in the air? The "Flagship Detroit", a 1937 DC-3 G102 was providing an aerial perspective of the weekend for us....

Ah the DC-3. We used to call that lumbering beast the Aluminum Overcast because it cruised so slowly.

Great plane to fly, however!
