I have not heard anything yet, but I haven't asked the FoD either.

As May is now around the corner, is there any further update as to when (and where) Ferraris will race in TX in 2003?

Thanks

The Ferrari Challenge area of FNA's site says May TBD, either at TWS or TMS, including a Historic Challenge race. Looks like Forza maye have gotten the date wrong...

Has TWS moved some dates around, right now they have the PCA there that weekend and the TWS schedule looks full with no Ferrari events.

From FORZA #43, May 2003, .pp 8

2003 Ferrari Challenge Schedule
<snip>
September 19-21, Texas World Speedway
Full Event

"All US Challenge events will now be three-day events held in cooperation with a major dealership and will include both 360 and Historic races. A new timed Regularity group has been added to the Historic class for those owners who don't want their classics in head-to-head competition.

"In addition , owners will be able to take their street cars onto the track, and different featured cars-such as a 360 GT or an F1 car-will appear each weekend. A 'hospitality village' will also appear at each race. These changes are intended to broaden the serie's appeal and attract more spectators.

-am I the first or the last to hear about this??
