Has anyone done one of these? I'll be in Tuscany next June/July (not) coincidentally when the courses are scheduled in Parma.

I'm particularly interested in the Trofeo course!

Rick,
Unfortunately the requirement for the Trofeo course would be to complete the GT course first. How do I know? Coz I will be doing the Trofeo course in June..hee hee

Rules were meant to be bent...

I'm still going to try to get in on the Trofeo course. I plan to get in a good bit of track time this spring at Summit Point in West Virginia, so I should be quite comfortable with throwing the Coupe around at speed.

Traffic around here takes the fun out of 130 MPH runs - for me and for others!

 

[Lung7707]

well good luck... let me know how easily is it to bend the rules...hee hee

I see that the information is in English. Can I assume that the instruction is in English. I am not sure I know the difference between "upshift" and "downshift" in Italian....

 

[Lung7707]

Instructions can be in English... or Italian accented English w lots of hand gestures.

Lung-
I just got all of the information on the GT course. I see from your post that you attended. Did you enjoy it? Any suggestions.

 

[Lung7707]

Bruce,
It was GREAT! Throughly enjoyed the program. I went w two other of my friends and we had a blast.
The course is very similar to the Ferrari Pilota course. Same instructors, similar track and paddock work... only different cars.
I would encourage you to attend the course.

I am definately going to try and plan it. I have to make 3 trips to Hong Kong in the 1st half of the year and I am going to try and squeeze it in. They have sessions in may and july and it would make for a great trip. if you have any other suggestions, let me know. i would have liked to schedule a factory visit, but I am unclear of what changes will be brough about by the changeover to Fiat.

 

[Lung7707]

I don't think the Fiat takeover has affected operations. My two friends visited the factory during the trip. I missed coz of timing issues. U should hook up with your dealership that sold u the GS. Ask them to help you arrange for the course and the factory tour. In Singapore, all this is arranged by my dealer. In fact they sent me a mail last nite asking if I wanted to attend the Trofeo course in Aug 06.

 

[Glenn Wallace]

No dates for the 06 courses yet. I've been asking.

 

[Lung7707]

I think they can u give u the month which it wll be conducted but not the exact dates...
