430 Challenge on 5th Gear

[JKBELISE]

How long before they bring out the 430 Stradale ??? -- looking at the car last night it cannot be long - anyone heard anything ?

Rumours are rife that a 430 Light will be made.Personally, i'm not so sure ....

DON'T DO IT!!!!!

I am thinking the same too. Had a couple of drives in a 360 and loved the sound & the look of the car, was not so impressed by the performance compared to my 996TT.

Any advice you have ?

Did you also notice that Jean Todt said to VBH "lets see how you do in the Challenge Stradale"

[crikeymikey]

Well spotted, bertie.
I thought, afterwards, that Totd probably wished he hadn't said that.
Ferrari tradionally make a track version of the V8, to compete in one-make "gentleman racer" series as well as GT. I doubt whether JT meant to confirm it on camera though!

I thought JT made that comment in response to VBH's question about wether she could drive the F1 car.

Don't understand what that would confirm?

the track version of the 430 IS the Challenge car VBH drove. It's not a CS version of the 430.
