    Hi Everyone....
    Wanted to make sure everyone saw this.....If you have not been to the Simeone Museum in Philadelphia, it is worth the trip. On Saturday, September 28th, 2013 they are having a Demo Day called:

    "What Happened to Ferrari Sports Car Racing"
    Between 1949 and 1965, no other make dominated sports car road racing like Ferrari. They won a record nine Le Mans races in this period, including six straight, and then never won another. We’ll look at three examples of Ferrari race cars that established their legend.
    1954 Ferrari 375 MM
    1958 Ferrari 250 TR
    1962 Ferrari 250 GTO

    The Demo Days, which began in 2009, feature extremely rare racing sports cars from the Simeone collection being driven on the three-acre lot in back of the Museum. A brief lecture by Dr. Simeone on the importance of the cars and their place in history precedes each driving demonstration.
    Here is a link to a YouTube for a previous Demo Day with some of the same cars

    Demonstration Days events are held on the 4th Saturday of each month at 12 Noon, weather permitting. Visitors are encouraged to check the Museum’s Web site (Simeone Automotive Museum | One of the greatest collections of racing sports cars in the world.) before coming for any last minute changes. Admission to the Demonstration Days is included as part of the regular admission price.
