Universal Autosports - August 18 2009

Universal Autosports is proud to announce their competition ambitions. We have officially opened our Racing division for track support, service and logistics.

Our Racing department has vast pit lane experience In Vintage and the Ferrari Challenge series. Headed by Team Principle Jack Ciaccia and supported by Master Technicians Liugi Scala and Kent Woodworth, Universal Autoports aims to return to the podium in 2009.

We are campaigning a 1935 Alfa Romeo Tipo 35 Gran prix race car in the last two vintage races of the year. An original Scuderia Ferrari race car driven by Tazio Nuvolari himself , a valuable piece of Ferrari racing heritage. One of only three still in existence in the entire world, and the sole remaining chassis still in competition.

Our first race is the Vintage gran prix at Watkins Glen race track (September 11-13). The “Glen” is situated at the foot of the Finger lakes in awe inspiring upstate New York, once home to Formula one races in the 1960’s. A historic track in it’s own right, one of the oldest and fastest courses in the country. A must see event, the Glen is a short 5 hour drive from NYC.

Our season finale will be in conjunction with the Ferrari Challenge races, running in the Historics at New Jersey Motorsports Park (September 18-20). This race is open to all Historics that raced under the Ferrari banner over the decades and new 430 Challenge race cars. A tifosi dream come true to witness so viscerally the array of Scuderia machinery. Young and old alike will be struck breathless from the hall of famers of racing legend in action. New Jersey Motorsports Park in located just 2 hours South of NYC.

We are extending an open invite to our UAS family and friends to attend any or all of these magnificent racing events. Bring the wife, the kids, your friends and maybe even your parents for a race you will never forget! We will be busy at work but never too busy to stop and say hello, so come see us and enjoy the show.
