Ferrari Club of America

What Ferrari Club of America does

The Ferrari Club of America (FCA) is a private non-profit social and recreational organization (501-c-7) founded in 1962 and incorporated in Illinois in 1963, operating as the world's largest and oldest factory-authorized Ferrari Club. FCA serves Ferrari owners and enthusiasts across the United States and Canada through a tiered membership model (regular, Associate at $125/year, Junior at $75/year) totaling 11,500+ members and associates, organized geographically into 16 regions and 60+ chapters. The organization's core offerings include the Annual Experience (held continuously since 1964), driver development track events, rallies, concours competitions (Coppa Bella Macchina, Coppa GT, Futuro Classico), and Historic Challenge Racing, supported by the quarterly Prancing Horse magazine (published for 53 years) and the monthly News Bulletin.

The underlying technology is conventional community-organization infrastructure: a website (ferrariclubofamerica.org) powered by YourMembership.com membership management software, with official iOS and Android mobile applications for event access. FCA holds formal membership in Ferrari S.p.A.'s International Council of Ferrari Clubs (joined March 2010), which grants members a 10% discount on parts and service at participating Ferrari dealerships in North America and provides access to factory activities. The business is funded primarily through recurring annual membership dues, with ancillary revenue from event registrations, FCA Store regalia sales, FCA Classifieds marketplace activity, and publication advertising. GTM is community-led, supported by an event-driven flagship Annual Experience and a distributed field organization of regional directors and chapter presidents who drive local acquisition and retention.
