PVGP Italian Marque Race

2/28/2015

0 Comments

 
For 2015 the PVGP is Celebrating the Marques of Italy. Italian cars of all manufacturers will be honored throughout the entire 10-day event including an All Italian Marque Race on the final day – Sunday July 19 at Schenley Park.  We are told that this will be the FIRST EVER all- Italian Marque race ever held in North America.
Italian Marque Race – Sunday July 19
Each year we stage a special race to honor our Marque of the Year. With all Italian Cars being recognized we are anticipating a large contingent to battle for the honor of Italy. 

This race will be the first race after lunch on Sunday afternoon. See full race schedule. It will be 8 laps or 20 minutes.  Participants must be enlisted to race within one of our vintage race groups for the weekend.  Italian cars will be honored throughout all 10 days of the 2015 Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix. Click here for details and links to our other Race Week events.  

We hope to see all of Italy’s great racing cars: Abarth, Ferrari, Maserati, Alfa Romeo, Fiat,  and Lancia as well as some of the rare brands like Iso, Bandini, Siata or Stangueillini.

Special Paddock
There will be a grassy area under the trees for any Italian race entrants to paddock together in Schenley Park. Paddock opens Friday morning at 9:00 am. This will be a prime area overlooking the start-finish line and will be a popular spectator attraction. Should be quite a display!

Cortile Lunch Saturday, July 18
