  La Bella Macchina 2008

La Bella Macchina is an exclusive event that celebrates rarities of life such as the Ferrari automobile, private aircraft and yachts.

More than 100 new, classic and vintage Ferraris were on display including some challenge editions. The event attracted more than 2,500 guests, among them were hundreds of Ferrari owners, Palm Beach and New York socialites and premier business people. 

The highlight of this year's event was the arrival of the Rocket Racing League rocket-powered aircraft.  Although only the marketing demonstration aircraft was on display (no active rocket) on the flight line this year, it was "unveiled" to the general public for sponsorship and marketing potential opportunities.

The rocket plane...X-Racer, was centered in the flight line along with other rare and new aircraft from the WWII Fighter (P-51) to the new VLJ (Eclipse Jet).  This marketing event proved that the general public is fascinated with the concept of commercial exploration of space and welcoming of a new and dynamic sport.
