The Mille Miglia has traditionally been an endurance car race that takes place in Italy. It has taken place for a number of decades starting back in the 1920's. Due to the World War or other events, the race hasn't happened every single year. Fans love this race as they get to watch and support everything about it.


In 2014 this race was held over 4 days spanning about 1000 miles making it an exciting event. What is interesting about this endurance car race is that they are required to follow a number of rules that make the race extremely traditional.


For example, since the 1977 edition of the race, no cars made after 1957 or models created since then are allowed in the race. This means that the drivers and their teams must find old car models and parts to make the race as authentic and original as possible. There is quite a bit of information online that helps people understand all the rules and whether they can enter certain types of cars in the event.


Each year the route changes as well. This gives different areas the chance to have greater participation in the race. These are just some of the reasons that fans love this event so much.


While the race this year is officially over, fans can still be part of the event even now. For example, there is the official site where fans can find a number of items about the event. This can range from things such as shirts, stickers, jackets, caps, and many other items. This helps out the event so that next year it can be even bigger and better. Many fans like wearing the memorabilia so that they can spread the message of this unique event to other people throughout the year. That is just one way the fans can still be part of the event all year long.


The Mille Miglia has a long, rich history. Being a fan of this type of race is something many people love and look forward to each year.
