You should check these events out guys

http://www.ferrariownersclub.co.uk/events/ferrari_classic_07/

You might just get lucky and see a real 288GTO

I've been to the Maranello challenge days at Oulton Park on a few occasions and it's a highly recommended day out.

I was thinking... its very likely that the f40 will perform similar to the 288... probably just faster, crisper and louder :)

What class will the F40 be in? My best guess was C...
Sebringmgb
16-02-2007, 03:31
Im thinking B
Sematic
17-02-2007, 00:37
its gotta be at least high end C class or low end B class.

The 288 is a sweet ride, classic ferrari dials, and a proper manual gearbox, i havent tuned mine as i dont think its right to mess with it.

What a beast is right, i think thats the shape that spawned the creation of the F40, you can see similar resemblances.

Yes it is indeed, as you can see the in the chassis number list at the bottom of the page the first 2 out of the 5 that were built ended up as rolling test-beds in the F40 development.

Is it any wonder why the F40 turned out so good, being spawned from such an amazing car, a real throughbred.
