Ferrari fxx

Enzo Ferrari left CMN in 1920 to work at Alfa Romeo and racing their cars in local races he had more success. In 1923, racing in Ravenna, he acquired the Prancing Horse badge which decorated the fuselage of Francesco Baracca's (Italy's leading ace of WWI) SPAD fighter, given from his mother, taken from the wreckage of the plane after his mysterious death. This icon would have to wait until 1932 to be displayed on a racing car. In 1924 he won the Coppa Acerbo at Pescara. His successes in local races encouraged Alfa to offer him a chance of much more prestigious competition. Ferrari turned this opportunity down and did not race again until 1927. He continued to work directly for Alfa Romeo until 1929 before starting Scuderia Ferrari as the racing team for Alfa.

Born in Modena, Enzo Ferrari grew up with little formal education but a strong desire to race cars. During World War I he was a mule-shoer in the Italian Army. His father, Alfredo, died in 1916 as a result of a widespread Italian flu outbreak. Ferrari became sick himself and was consequently discharged from Italian service. Upon returning home he found that the family firm had collapsed. Having no other job prospects he sought unsuccessfully to find work at FIAT and eventually settled for a job at a smaller car company called CMN redesigning used truck bodies into small passenger cars. He took up racing in 1919 on the CMN team, but had little initial success.

use the large cockpit canopy as the trans-black works best for the Ferrari theme and the shape blends better with the massive aft section, better than a 4-wide canopy.

A joint effort between Ferrari, Pininfarina and aluminium chassis specialist Alcoa "Ferrari: New Concepts of the Myth" is a design competition for young designers to think what the Ferraris of tomorrow will look like. Students from design schools in Japan, USA, UK, and Italy have produced these designs and these are some of the twenty winners selected by a panel that included Luca di Montezemolo, Jean Todt, Amedeo Felisa, Donato Coco, Massimo Fumarola, and Sergio Pininfarina that will go through to the next round.
