Ferrari 599XX

Ever wish you could race around the track in a car that was produced for Ferrari’s most loyal and demanding customers? Better yet, ever wish that car was the first ever production-derived sports car to break the 7-minute barrier, lapping the Nurburgring in 6 min 58.16 seconds? If you haven’t guessed by now, we are talking about the irresistible track day Ferrari 599XX and one of those loyal and demanding customers we were talking about earlier is giving one lucky person the opportunity to own his exclusive ride.

It’s hard to believe that anyone that owns a Ferrari 599XX would so easily put his on the market, but some guy over in France has done so. For 1,315,600 euro, or about $1,907,752 at the current rates, anyone can be the owner of a black 599XX with a matching black interior. The racer only has 932 miles on the odometer and still has a V12 engine that pushes out 700 HP at a whopping 9,000 RPM. This engine is mated to the SuperFast gearbox that is able to swap cogs in a mere 60 milliseconds.

Got an extra $2 million to join the party?

The new Ferrari FF also features the most recent development in carbon-ceramic brakes from Brembo and the latest magneto-rheological damping system (SCM3).


The Ferrari FF powered by a 6262cc direct injection engine has a maximum power of 660CV @ 8000rpm and a maximum torque of 683Nm @ 6000rpm. The transaxle dual-clutch F1 gearbox in it guarantees a stunning acceleration of 0-100km/h in 3.7 seconds. Its weight-to-power ratio is 2.7kg/CV and along with its ideal weight distribution, exceptionally responsive handling is ensured.

Ferrari 458 Challenge Car Tuning 
Ferrari 458 Challenge Car Tuning

The 458 Challenge boasts a host of upgrades over its road-legal sibling to make it race worthy when it hits the grid in Ferrari’s one-make race series from 2011. The Ferrari 458 Challenge will make world premiere at the 35th edition of the Bologna Motor Show in Italy, which runs for the public from December 4 to 12.

Ferrari is also displaying a variety of other racing models from the past and present at its Bologna Motor Show stand, including a 430 GTC owned by the AF Corse team Ferrari and an F1 model.
Ferrari’s engineers have made modifications to the gear ratios and calibration of its dual-clutch F1 gearbox to further improve torque at lower revs. While the Challenge keeps the 458 Italia’s direct injection 4.5-liter V8 with an output of 570 hp at 9,000 rpm intact.

The Ferrari 458 Challenge is equipped with the E-Diff electronic differential already employed on the road-going version, a first for Ferrari’s track-only cars. Another first for a Ferrari Challenge model is the adoption of the firm’s F1-Trac traction control system. The race-spec model also gets a specific suspension set-up with steel uniball joints, stiffer springs, single-rate alloy dampers and a ride height lowered by 50mm all round.
Stopping power is provided by the new generation Brembo CCM2 brakes integrated with the latest ABS system which debuted on the 599XX, Ferrari’s experimental laboratory car, while it rides on centre-nut 19-inch forged rims wrapped in larger dimension Pirelli slicks.
Result of combined is the improvement of the car’s lap time at Fiorano by two seconds over that of its predecessor, resulting in a new record of just 1’16.5”. According to the Italian company, the amount of lateral grip the new car generates is 1.6G. Read also about this car’s detail at previous post..

Designed to simulate the F1 driving experience, the roller coaster is designed to carry 16 passengers (on four cars). Its 2.07 km (1.29 miles) long course features a series of "sharp turns and sudden drops" which generate 1.7 Gs.


Another exciting ride inside the park is G-Force – that will shoot thrill-seekers through the red roof and 62 meters in the air before plummeting back to Earth, thus making them experience the actual G-force of a Ferrari, in a seat directly inspired by the Ferrari Enzo.
