I L TRIDENTE On-Line
Maserati Triumphant in World Race Debut
03/09/2003: The world premiere of the factory developed and built Maserati Trofeo racecar finished in glory with the number 28 of Rod Wilson winning its class. Maserati Motorsport Manager and lead pilot for the Australian Grand Prix support race won over more favoured competitors hailing from other European stables.
The Trident Racing Trofeo won Group 2 of the Cleanevent Nations Cup in Race 1 after a hard fought battle with a swaggle of Ferrari 360 Challenges and Porsche 911 GT3 Cups. The number 28 Trofeo also managed to take 6th place outright.
The second Maserati Trofeo of V8 Brutes star Gary Young finished a respectable 6th in class.

Benvenuto
Welcome to our club home. We are now headlong into Maserati's re-emergence as a preeminent sports car marque. Amongst the features of our site you can look to our online magazine section titled I L TRIDENTE OnLine containing a Letters to the Editor section allowing you to make your opinions known to us instantly. This ILTRIDENTE OnLine is not meant to replace our famous IL TRIDENTE but rather to add value to your membership dollars and fill in the gaps between issues. Here you will have access to the most current Maserati news from this ever accelerating world we live in. As"news" is really only news in a very short window, ITOL is our best resource in getting it to you as soon as it occurs. One early example is that we published the first photos of the prototype 4.2 liter engine which is now installed in U.S. models.
To help support iL TRIDENTE, ITOL will help to keep members connected between issues. A major advantage of the site will be it's ability to archive large amounts of reference materials, particularly historic, which will be accessible to our ever expanding worldwide Maserati community. In the future we'll add more of the well-known articles which we have published in the magazine as well as current event pieces and, of course, our usual accurate news on the latest developments from the Maserati factory. As you who read I L TRIDENTE magazine know I have a"pet peeve" with the U.S. automotive press for printing a never-ending stream of gossip and inaccurate "news items" on what is considered the "latest" Maserati news. You can continue to expect a higher level of accuracy from us as we check all "news" directly and don't print them until they are ascertained to be true. We hope you enjoy this site and perhaps even take the time to add your own contributions to it. Cercate le belle strade!-Seymour.
