    So that is all I have for now but I will be on the lookout for drivers, records, and car #'s for the group.

    Exciting to see the history become better known since this was before the digital age.

    Pete,

    There is a copy on ebay right now for $90.

    Looks like a great book. Otherwise, I will try to post some highlights.

    Tim, I can look it up, but what number did it run and what years? '96-'99?

    Originally a white car?

    Tim,

    Congratulations!

    This is your car during the Ferrari Challenge Series with its livery.

    You will notice the #76 on the driver side door and you will see the other numbers partly covered up with a different top # 21.

    I love this car. Should be a great time restoring it to this paint and scheme.

    Very nice set of books. Many thanks for sharing as it is very difficult to get any info on the results of the various challenge races.
    One question: do you have race results for the French challenge in 97 and 98 ?

    Thank you Robb!!!!!
    Yes the color is quite rare

    From my understanding. Owner of Wide WOrld Motors, Benny Ciaola special ordered the car for himself all white, bright white not crema. Drove it for a while then converted it to a race car I have most of the orig interior and 90% all orig parts

    I understand 2 cars were run by them the other is also from what I here located in my town here, small world.

    Wide World motors in Spring Valley NY, I grew up a few miles from there and would ride my bike to go look at the cars. At that time it was a 2 bay gas station selling Ferraris. Times have changed

    :)

    Awesome! Thank you so much for posting these. My car was owned by Jong Wha Kim and I found several of his finishes in the listings - including the finals at Imola which I would have loved to been at. Thanks again for posting. If you happen to see any photos of my car I would appreciate seeing them. What books are those results printed in?
