  • Ride along for 1:37-1:38 laps of Sears Point / Sonoma Raceway (chicane edition), as I turn a set of new tires into lateral acceleration and big grins in my Ferrari 488 GT3.

    Where have you been Ben? Hope you're back out with us at some events in 2023.

      Well, most recently MHP and I drove a spec Miata to P1 in our class at the 25H of Thunder Hill. Slightly different pace than this car, but extremely satisfying.

    Hey Ben, is your helmet custom made? If so what was the inspiration behind the design.

    Do you take the same lines in this car as you would in a road car? I noticed in Turn 2 you stick to the inside longer than I do and turn in slightly earlier to Turn 4 as well.

      The low speed lines are similar, yes. On T2 exit the idea is to get back to full throttle quickly, and there's so little grip exiting T2 that the fastest line involves holding the apex a bit longer and then accelerating hard once the hands are (nearly) straight. Same idea for T4.
      A simple but accurate mantra: "the first one back to full throttle wins"

    With the now available „Modificata“ you would have given the possibility for an unrestricted GT3 which works as you had yours temorarily?

    • @yonly65

      The Modificata is quite a bit faster than my previously-unrestricted GT3 was. The GT3 with boost turned up was 580HP on 98 RON fuel. The Modificata is specified to be 690 HP (!!) on its fuel. It's going to be INSANE.
