2006 Ferrari F430

The 2006 Ferrari F430 Challenge is a thrilling factory-built race car. It is powered by the same 483 bhp 4. 3 litre V8 found in the F430 road car, using a six-speed automated 'F1' transmission with paddle shift.
Believed to be one of the only around 142 cars built, this F430 Challenge was supplied new to the UK market by main dealer H. R. Owen and maintained by f. f. Corse, SB Race engineering and Italia Autosport.
Created to meet the demands of Ferrari's track going customers, the F430 Challenge features several weight saving measures compared to it's more sedate road going brother. These include a Lexan windscreen and side windows, a largely stripped out interior and a carbon fibre intake cover, reducing it's weight by around 125kg. In addition , the car's torsion bars and springs were upgraded and the F1 transmission gear ratios for the 5th and 6th gear were changed, along with the final drive.
Furthermore, an ultra light exhaust system was also installed and the bodywork was enhanced with revised ducts for improved airflow.
Inside the pared-back cabin, this modern race car features a full roll cage, carbon fibre bucket seats and five point racing harnesses. Ahead of the driver is a quick release steering wheel which is fitted with controls for radio communication and a pit lane speed limiter. A colour digital display on the dashboard provides the driver with all the information they need at a glance, while the row of shift lights above allows the execution of perfectly timed gear changes.
The Ferrari F430 Challenge is a sensational track car which has been maintained to the highest level. Presented in smart overall condition, this race proven example represents the perfect opportunity for its next owner to get behind the wheel on track, be that track day or racing.
