MONTEREY, Calif., August 13, 2013 – The Pacific Region for the Ferrari Club of America has confirmed it will host the 2015 Ferrari Club of America (FCA) International Meet to coincide with and immediately follow the 2015 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance during Monterey’s Classic Car Week of automotive events, August 16 -20, 2015 at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Monterey, California. Themed “The Cars of Monterey,” and honoring the legendary road races of Laguna Seca and Pebble Beach circa 1950s and 1960s, the highly anticipated 2015 club event will mark the FCA organization’s 52nd anniversary.
“The annual Pebble Beach week is a haven for Ferrari owners and enthusiasts alike,” said Thomas Quigg, regional director for the FCA Pacific Region. “And with the West Coast home to so many of the historic and iconic wining Ferrari race cars, we expect our Concours to be full of nostalgia and passion, along with a few surprises.” Quigg anticipates that should the Ferrari brand become the featured 2015 marque for the Laguna Seca Historic Races in 2015, it makes perfect sense to further the Ferrari celebration and hold the 2015 international meet in the same geographic location.
The organization has already reached out to current owners and collectors to ensure the presence of several Ferrari racing treasures, and anticipates exhibiting winning race roadsters such as the 1953 250MM of Phil Hill, the 1951 166 MM of Jim Kimberly, and the 1954 340 MM of Sterling Edwards. FCA expects that more than 600 Ferrari entrants will participate in the 2015 International Meet.
