Ferrari Mailing List: Re: New article, was: Rick Lindsay in Prancing Horse

Interesting topic.

I'm a member of the Rolls-Royce Owners Club (not FCA anymore).  In
addition to membership in the RROC and my local region of the RROC, I
am also a member of the Phantom-III Technical Society (a separate club
from RROC).  There are several model specific clubs, some are
incorporated under the RROC, some aren't, to include the Silver Ghost
Association, Phantom-II Society, Early Post-War, etc etc.  These
clubs/societies/associations/etc all publish their own periodicals
that are very specific to the model/era.

I wonder if FCA would ever go that route, or would need to.  There's a
big difference between the vintage Ferraris, the 80s Ferraris that I
grew up with (308/512BBi/TR/etc), and the newer 360s/430s/etc, and
everything else in-between.
