500 Ferraris for Silverstone parade
Got a Ferrari? Bring it to Silverstone in September and help set a new world record!
Miscalibrated milling machines? What miscalibrated milling machines!
Further pomp and circumstance will occur later this year too as the Ferrari Racing Days returns to Silverstone with a selection of Ferrari action including demonstration laps by historic F1 cars and racing action in the Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli and Ferrari Club Challenge. It'll also be a rare chance to see the diplomatically titled 'Client Test Drivers' push their FXX and 599XX Evoluziones, quote, "to the limit."
And on the Saturday evening there'll be an attempt to claw back the record for the largest parade of Ferrari cars ever, the previous tally of 385 cars set in 2007 beaten by the Japanese Ferrari owners' club who amassed 490 cars but may now find their numbers slightly diminished following the antics of some of their associates. Sensing opportunity the goal for Silverstone is a minimum of 500 cars so if you're a Ferrari owner and fancy getting involved you can check out the Ferrari Racing Days website, Ferrari agreeing to donate £5 for each car attending to the automotive industry charity BEN.
We're negotiating with the organisers for some dedicated parking for PHers within the circuit confines but watch this space for further details and if you want to gorge yourself on Ferraris put September 14-16 in the diary.
miserable tight wads
Also some of us may have taken some of the corners at speed. For free.
In terms of reward/cost it was good. It wasn't an exciting hour, but it was more fun than watching TV, and that seems popular enough. Plus we like cars, and it was a car based activity (and one that was significantly more exciting than posting on the internet).

Would love to be there but Goodwood is the better event by a factor of about fifteen thousand. Best of luck to the organisers though.
Will normal folk like myself be able to attend the event this year?
The presence of the Police even more so, not inly because of the potential for people giving it the beans, but also for vehicle theft.
Imagine the call comes in...
Cop 1 "sir, we have a report of a stolen Ferrari near Silverstone race circuit"
Cop 2 "what colour was it"
Cop 1 "are you being some sort of a c*** ?"
