Ferrari Challenge Season Gets Ready for Debut in Miami

The North American Ferrari Challenge Series 2009 season is about to debut at Miami's Homestead Speedway to take place on March 20-22. The 16th edition of the Ferrari Challenge Series allows Ferrari owners to compete in thrilling racing series at world-class venues across both the United States and Canada.
