I didn't know that Pakelo Racing has an MC12??
And i never see them race in Italian GT this year...
Maybe you mean the team: Racing Box, they have entered an MC12 this year in the Italian GT. Dont know their chassis nr. sorry.

Yes it is. There are two MC12's in Italy. The Pakelo Racing one is the Racing box car.

See: http://www.pakeloracing.com/index_en...goria&lang=eng

The other car, the blue one, is the Playteam car, they both drive alongside this year.

I have the (unconfirmed) number 3 for the PlayTeam MC12 and the 5 for the Racing Box MC12.
But i heard that the Racing Box car should be a new factory car That can be understood as "a car that was raced by the factory" or as "delivered direct from th efactory to Racing Box". The #5 raced never before and i can´t believe that Maserati build #9 and #10

Small news snippet in today's Autosport (18 Jan 07)

Quote:

Vitaphone is pensioning off the MC12 that won last year's title and the Spa 24 hours in 2005-06. Chassis number two will be retired to a museum and replaced by the final MC12, chassis number nine

GTFever · 23 Apr 2007, 11:22

Odd, because the chassis number 2 is in the 2007 starting list as seen on project leMans. Let's try to clear the 2007 situation:

FIA GT nr. 1 : Vitaphone = ZAMDF44B000015439 (chassis 2) ???

FIA GT nr. 2 : Vitaphone = ZAMDF44B000012101 (chassis 9) ??? ex Pakelo??

FIA GT nr.11 :Scud. Playteam Sarafree = ZAMDF44B000015443 (chassis7)

FIA GT nr.12 :Scud. Playteam Sarafree = ZAMDF44B000012102 (chassis10)

FIA GT nr.16 : JMB = ZAMDF44B000015441 (chassis 4)

Is this correct? Where are the others?

Rd_Bll · 26 Oct 2007, 15:54

Yes, we could add :

FIA GT nr. 15 : JMB RACING = ZAMDF44B0000 15444 (chassis 8)

ALMS nr. 27 : DORAN LISTA RACING = ZAMDF44B0000 24053 (chassis ?)

MC12 Corse 0001 was shown at the 2007 Villa d'Este Concours d'Elegance. It is owned by a German collector. As far as I know it was never raced.

Any idea how many road and racing cars were eventually produced? Does the 50 figure initially stated include road and racing cars? Are the 12 MC12 Corsa cars additional chassis?

The359 · 30 Oct 2007, 22:47

I believe 55 was the final tally for road cars. 50 offered for sale while 5 went to Ferrari/Maserati personnel or were retained by the factory.

12 MC12 Corsa's were sold and a further 3 retained by the factory.

Does that 55 include the GT1 racing cars? That would make it 70 MC12s in total?

I don't believe so. 25 road cars from the first batch +5 other cars which stayed at Ferrari (most of them not painted blue/white), and then 25 road cars from the second batch.
