I can answer this too! It actually started with a Discovery HD show called "Secret Club of Speed." It was focused on a group of guys racing their Ferraris at Limerock Park in CT. This group happens to be the "team" my father is a part of....Team Pilota. There was quite a bit of interest in the show and the producer was asked to do more. The guys in the Ferrari group pointed Essex Television Group to Wayne. The rest is history. I can remember Wayne coming to my office to drop off a copy of his first season.....probably still have it if I dig around.

I follow the current value in the Cavallino guide and it's not a real cheap Prancing Horse. I cannot imagine having the jones to make a call to Maranello, ask for a designer to work with you in building your car, and be assured it will be the only one ever built, just the way you want it. It's also been done before for a guy in Japan and another in the Mideast..... on intro that day, it seems it took a bit over a year and a half to complete according to the announcer.
