GT Legends: Celebrating 50 Years of Ferrari 250 GTO

[Knut Omdal Tveito]

The Incredible Ferrari 250 GTO, introduced in 1962, turns 50 years old this year. The car was built specifically to compete in the World Sportscar Championship, in which it was challenged by the Shelby Cobra and later the Cobra Daytona Coupe.

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of this incredible piece of machinery the GTL racing club will have a 250km race around Lime Rock Mountain on Thursday 23rd August, where the 250 GTO goes head to head against the Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe. Click here for more information.
