A few weeks ago, a few friends and I went to the Corse Clienti in Spa Francorchamps. This is an event where owners drive their 599XX (EVO), FXX and/or Formule 1 cars (some owners had multiple cars  ). We got some free paddock passes from the owner of 599XX #4 so we could walk in the pitboxes, pitlane etc...pretty much where ever we wanted Now we have a plan to visit the Ferrari Racing Days on Silverstone this year (14-16 september) to see the Corse Clienti again! Pretty excited about it, I've never been to Silverstone before... I was able to shoot a couple of vids in Spa in the pitbox area, La Source and Eau Rouge (what a corner!) 599XX and 599XX EVO's: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wNG4eSFe8T0FXX Evoluzione's: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3RcXLpNVuQkFerrari F1/89 (ex-Gerhard Berger): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTeZRlpVweoMarc Gené driving an F1 car: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_5zBMmd-wmwI would really recommend try visiting the Ferrari Racing Days in september this year. As I understand, the 599XX & FXX programs and the Ferrari F1 Clienti cars are there AND there's a Guiness World record attempt (500+ Ferrari's on the track!). http://corseclienti.ferrari.com/2012en/race/silver...

Superb videos. Thanks for sharing. The Silverstone dates you mention are unfortunately the same weekend as the Goodwood Revival.

If you own a Ferrari you can get a pair of free tickets to the Silverstone event in Sept and even participate in a parade lap if that takes your fancy.

Great videos, thanks for posting. I recognise the 599xx car number 10 - briefly thought about buying it back in 2011 when it was I believe the last car they had for sale:
