Just like in previous Ferrari Challenge cars the engine has largely remained the same as on the production road cars except for some enhanced breathing by means of a racing exhaust system and some engine management tweaks and fine blueprinting.

Fifth and sixth gears have been tweaked, as well as the final drive ratio, specifically for the Challenge car.

Weight saving efforts have affected all areas of the car, the most noticeable of which is the cockpit.

A lifeline snaps off boss allows the Alcantara steering wheel to be removed from the car to aid entry and exit to the cockpit.

A full roll cage and 6 point racing harnesses are also present in the cockpit along with super-light carbon door panels and Lexan front, side, and rear windows replacing all-road car glass.

It is estimated that more than half of these race cars have been written off during the various Ferrari Challenge series around the world.
