RM have just announced that the rare and coveted 1963 Ferrari 250 GTO (chassis no. 4675 GT) has been sold through private treaty.
The 1963 Ferrari 250 GTO (chassis no. 4675 GT) is one of only thirty-six 250 GTOs originally produced and one of a limited few with Series II GTO bodywork. In April 1963, 4675 GT left the factory finished in Rosso Cina. It was raced by such drivers as Guido Fossati, Jean Guichet, Oddone Sigala, Vincenzo Nember and Luigi Taramazzo and proved itself a tremendously capable racing car, rarely finishing outside the top three in its class and achieving numerous race wins.
In addition to being considered one of the most beautiful cars ever built by Ferrari, the GTO, with 302bhp @ 7500rpm and a top speed of 174-mph, was tremendously successful in competition, securing multiple World Championships for the Modenese car builder.

Track-based supercar club, RS Academy, has announced it is launching the first of its taster days at the Ascari Race Resort in southern Spain. These days will allow potential members to get a flavour of club membership and experience some of the club cars for themselves in situ at one of the club’s venues.
The taster days will be held on various dates in December and the fee will be refunded to anyone who joins the club on the day.
RS Academy is the only supercar club membership that affords members the chance to drive the world’s finest performance cars as their designers intended. The club keeps its cars at the Nürburgring Nordschliefe, Spa Francorchamps and the ultra-exclusive Ascari Race Resort in southern Spain and because they keep their cars on the circuit, they don’t have to water down their fleet with tourers or ‘classics’. They only buy machines that offer the most rewarding and captivating driving experience – track cars like the Ferrari 430 Challenge, Caterham R500 and Porsche 911 GT3 RS.
