arakis has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
Ferrari 458 Technical Spec error

Maximum power 346,75 Kw (465 CV) at 6250 rpm
Maximum torque 520 Nm (50 KGM) at 5750 rpm

information taken from Ferrari.com
by using this formula
Torque (N.m) = 9548.8 x Power (KW) / Speed (RPM)

and using 346.75KW and 6250 in it I get that at 6250 the ferrari makes 529 Nm witch is more then the Maximum torque number stated, is that even posble?

alexkiller8 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
i doubt those are real data (like the all "official site" data of cars)
just think about that last year the 430 of risi competizione ran with more 500hp but heavier than the other cars

The GT3 version has a Hewland 6-speed gearbox, not the road car unit.

Looks good, and at least this time the GT2 looks more highly developed. The appearance of the Scud vs. the GT2 430 was reversed in my estimation.

Wonder how backlogged their order book is for the GT3 now since they were shaking down the mechanical elements a couple of weekends back without any front and rear aero parts at all...

No, it was a Kessel car, built up from the 430 Challenge base chassis IIRC. What I was getting at was more broad than that - a general distinction between GT2 and GT3.

Yes, but the latter effectively replaced the former, and both had the blessing of Ferrari.
