Ferrari F430 Challenge

The Ferrari F430 Challenge is a production-based grand touring race car introduced by Ferrari in 2007 for use in the Ferrari Challenge Series, Ferrari's one-make sports car racing series. Styled by Frank Stephenson, the F430 Challenge is heavily based on the standard F430, albeit extensively modified to fit the needs of the Ferrari Challenge racing series. Compared to the road car the F430 Challenge features center-lock racing wheels, larger BBS brakes, extensive weight reduction, addition of a rollcage, tweaked gear ratios for the car's six-speed transmission and six-point racing harnesses among other changes. Styling changes compared to the standard F430 are minimal, with most driver aids removed completely. The car was retired from competition in 2010, to be replaced by the Ferrari 458 Challenge the next year. 142 chassis were produced over this four year period.
