Ferrari has unveiled a racing supercar with a 700-horsepower engine :: Autonews

Ferrari has unveiled a special version of the Ferrari 488 supercar, which is designed exclusively for track driving. As reported Carscoops, the two-door received a prefix in the name GT Modificata, and only members of the Ferrari Competizioni GT club will be able to purchase it. Members of this community can compete on various well-known tracks in the world (among them Monza and Nürburgring) without the strict restrictions of the FIA ​​regulations.

The body of the novelty is almost entirely made of carbon fiber. The car received a steel safety cage and bucket seats with six-point seat belts. The driver has access to a rear-view camera, tire pressure sensors, a special V-Box measuring complex and Bosch telemetry.

The supercar is equipped with a 3.9-liter twin-turbo V8 petrol engine. The power of the unit is 700 horsepower. If desired, customers can order a gearbox with different gear ratios. The car also received Brembo brakes.

In September, Ferrari presented a new modification of its “junior” Portofino supercar, which replaced the California T three years ago. Now the roadster has received a version called Modificata. The output of the 3.9-liter twin-turbo V8 engine was increased from 600 to 620 horsepower (peak torque remained at the same level – 760 Newton meters). The unit works with a new eight-speed robotic transmission with improved clutch, which replaced the seven-speed “robot”.
