Amelia Island Concours 2013 - Ducati!

Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance needs no introduction to the car world but even though the event has a solid commitment to the two wheeler's, 2013 was Ducatis first opportunity to show off en-mass. The entry list was a walk thru Ducati history, from the iconic Cucciolo that started it all, to the GP11 of Nicky Hayden. Add to that the real Spaggiari Imola racer and the real Mike Hailwood 1979 racer that has been in the Barber collection for many, many years, but now was basking in the Florida sunshine. It was spectacular and I was honored to be a part of it. Here's the entry list and photos of them all, as well as some photos of the cars and people that make this event the most important car show on the East coast and one of a small handful of the top concours in the world.
