Hi All, Just wanted to let everyone in on additional info: Ferrari Quebec might be bringing a 458 Italia and a 599 GTO to the festival this year... if you haven't seen one yet, this could be your chance... will update once we receive confirmation. Campagna Motors are bringing 4 of their T-Rex cars to the track day and one of them will be made available to all the Ferrari owners registered for the track day for test driving on the track... I had the opportunity to try one last year and let me tell you these things handle like a go-kart... We will also have 3 supercars (Enzo, MC-12 and Saleen S7 TT) at the Ferrari festival this year and they will participate in all the events... including the track day, the demo zone and the Father's day dream drive on Sunday... so if you've ever wanted a ride in a supercar, Sunday will be your opportunity to do so. DF
i heard there was going to be an enzo on preston street tomorrow. does anyone have any information or can confirm this.
My friend has bought her mom a dream ride ticket so I might see you there on Sunday the 20th. Will definately make the parade and demo zone. CIAO!
Not knowing Ottawa at all, are many of the events close by?? If one was drive down, where's the best place to stay? Thks
Your best bet is to stay at the Chateau Laurier. As mentioned above, secure parking and they are aware of the event and the need for secure parking having worked with the comittee. I am not sure of cost of rooms, etc. As for the events they are all centered around Preston St and the Italian week finale. Only the Saturday Pleasure drive takes you out of the area in a convoy of Maranello's finest but returns to Preston St in time for the Italian Car Parade with the FIAT/Alfa Romeo clubs! All events are within a 3-5 block area. I WAS on the comittee for three years and it is a great time run by a bunch of great guys who own Ferraris too! You can contact them with any questions! However it all starts tomorrow. See you in Ottawa! PS: What are you driving?
so did the enzo ever make it to calabogie. i only saw the mc12. will it be on preston tomorrow or will it be another no show

If you're asking about ZR's Enzo, and I assume you are, then no. It didn't make it to the Canadian Grand Prix last weekend either because Edo Competition didn't finish working on it in time.
Had a blast at the Demo Zone this afternoon! With the Yellow 355 GTS blasting down the demo zone and the "Auto Bugatti" 550/575 coming close to the walls/grass it was terrific! Will try to post pics if possible. A big thanks to the members of FCA Ottawa for their hard work in organizing it every year and to all the owners who attend with their cars and support such a good cause like Villa Marconi! Grazie! Now on to the Dream rides tomorrow!
