Enzo Ferrari's love of road race cars starting at age 14, and never went away. After WWI, he starting driving for Alfa Romero's race team. Nobody challenged their greatness, so it soon disbanded due to lack of competition. But Enzo's dream lived on. He gathered up his teammates, and, backed by AIfa in 1932, started Scooteria Ferrari which swept every competition they entered.
Ferrari's first car, the 125, rolled out foIIowing WWIl in 1947. lt has an unheard of v12 engine. This started their Iegacy which is carried through today. Enzo's passion was always track racing, and they were undefeatabIe. At one point, Ford became so enraged that they hired Carroll SheIby and spent more than $1 biIIion to develop the Ferrari KiIIer - Ford GT40 - which swept Lemans and forced Enzo to join up with Alfa Romeo as they had funds enough to bankroIl his racing passions. Ferrari retained his prized racing team, but gave up production to his partner who helped to develop, among other models, their most popular car of aIl time, the Testarrosa. |
