About this event
It's time for fun among the Ferraris! This year's Checkered Flag Party is going to be special: Ferrari Lake Forest and our host, Rick Mancuso, are giving attendees the opportunity to ride in and drive a Ferrari. There will also be door prizes, a buffet dinner, a talk by Rick Mancuso, award presentations, and plenty of time to hang out with your SCCA friends. To thank volunteers, drivers and members for making 2024 successful, the Chicago Region is pricing the dinner at $25 per person.

Ferrari Ride and Drive Experience
Ferrari drives will be limited by time and weather. All participants must be age 25 or older. All drivers must present a valid driver's license and may not consume alcohol before their drive. If you plan to participate in the Ferrari ride and drive experience, you will need to sign up online. This gives the organizers the number of people to expect. However, it doesn't guarantee a spot in the queue. Rides/drives will be offered based on party check-in time.
