Ottawa Ferrari Festival 2014
June 14, 2014
Once all of our competition events are done, we get a chance to enjoy the summer. Over the summer we take the cars out to a few local events to show people what we’ve done, and get a chance to drive them in interesting venues.
The first of these events is the Ottawa Ferrari Festival, from June 13th to the 15th, 2014. Over three days a selection of fine motoring vehicles descends on Preston Street in Ottawa’s Little Italy. Ferraris, Italian food, and good weather, what’s not to love?
For the past few years we’ve brought our most recent cars out to the festival and taken the opportunity to drive them around in both the display area and the Italian car parade. The RR14 car is far from Italian, but for the festival we can consider ourselves as honorary Italian-Canadians.
The event isn’t strictly for Ferraris and attracts all kinds of exotic street cars and racecars that don’t always get the chance to hit the street. Drag cars, formula cars, things that happen to have wheels and an engine of some kind (golf cart!).
Thanks to the Ferrari Club of America Ottawa Chapter for letting us come out and have some fun, we can’t wait for next year! The 2015 Ferrari Festival will be our last opportunity to test both our gas and electric cars the weekend before competition in Lincoln, Nebraska next year.
