    Translated from the Maranello website:
    The Legacy Tour 2024 will instead start in Val Rendena. The event chose Trentino, Veneto, Lombardy and Emilia-Romagna as the backdrop for its routes. The most important Ferrari 288 GTO collectors will come from all over the world to discover the history, culture, food and wine excellences, architectural wonders and landscapes of the territories crossed.


    The elegant scenery of the Dolomites will accompany the crews until the last day, which will see the arrival of the participants in Maranello, on Friday 4 October, at approximately 4.30pm. The GTOs will be welcomed into the Prancing Horse factory, where participants will discover some of the car's secrets directly from the Ferrari Classiche experts, as well as from some members of the GTO development team. The cars will be displayed inside the factory and, afterwards, a parade on the Fiorano Circuit will close the 2024 GTO Legacy Tour.

    23 it is, not 27.
    Race numbers begin with 1 and go to 27 but four numbers in between not used.

    It looks it will be a very demanding waterproof test for the attending cars: today it's a very bad weather here in northern Italy, and tomorrow not a much better weather is espected.

    However it's a very nice looking sight indeed, rain or not!

    Ciao

    Correct, very wet and cold weather throughout the day. It should be the same tomorrow but being part of this gathering and seeing so many GTOs in the wild is a privilege. What a beautiful car!

    I certainly would not fault them for finding a warm bar, a warm drink and waiting for better roads.

    A couple mins ago in Mantova, Italy, during the 288 GTO Legacy Tour, John Elkann talking to Andrea Modena (head of SAT and Ferrari Classiche), before entering his 56203.

    He knows every chassis number, trust me, I've seen his list!

    Perhaps the rain stopped because JE joined the tour.

    March, Amsterdam. I guess the same Dutch car that was in the GTO Tour?

    I only had two 'big' model cars as a kid. A 1/18 Bburago Countach and a 1/24 Bburago 288 GTO. I think I still have it somewhere. Money no object I'd prefer owning the 288 GTO over the Countach these days. Heck, I'd prefer a 360 CS over a Countach, even a manual F355. But the Countach remains the ultimate poster car together with the F40.
