Concorso
Italiano and Historic Auto Races at Laguna Seca.
Ace photographer Bruce Mallory captured this
stunning image of Schumaker's 2003 ride catching air at the top of the
infamous "corkscrew". That's a Ferrari factory test pilot
at the wheel trying to set a speed record for the track. He didn't
do it.
Here's a view of the corkscrew from the bottoM

Matt Lipski's Pantera met its untimely end the week before, so he rented a
Ferrari 360 Modena for the trip to Monterey.
Q: What do
do with a rented Ferrari?
A: Drive it
like a rented Ferrari!!!
Unfortunately,
the 'F' just couldn't take the abuse. After only 2 rounds of the
automotive equivalent of a gang bang, she blew a radiator hose and was
down for the count. Party over. The rental company sent a
flatbed and an inferior Maserati (they were fresh out of Ferraris) as a
replacement. Matt opted to cancel the deal and came to Monterey in
his daily driver instead.
More Ferraris than you ever knew existed.
Multi-million dollar GTOs like this one were virtually everywhere.
Another really nice 'F', one of many just like
it
