The launch sounds like a rally car, I like it. To be fair though, given the right situation (equal traction, equal torque to the wheels) an open diff *will* spin both wheels no problem.
Per Josh’s comment on the 430 sound in the building being blah and then appreciating the sound at higher revs outside, the Forza exhaust controller fixes this and is a must for a 430; available through NGS of course! More torture test or what happens if experiment videos might get more clicks. 🤔 This was excellent. Cheers 🍻
Fantastic test and prove of the disabled E-DIFF, thank you so much guys for doing that! No doubt that with a disabled E-DIFF, all the power gets to the wheels without any weird locking. Best video ever made to prove that!
w/ out E diff it becomes crude DUMB mechanical LSD . It STILL has LSD ! do you NOT understand that ? WTF !

The burnout would work A LOT better on smooth dark pavement, that will get you that burning rubber/smoke show. To much sand/gravel on that road in front of The Stubb.
No they are not, I have seen the damage this abuse causes, granted they are designed to go fast, violent application of power to the car from standing still stresses and wears the gear faces and the differential bearings and case

Nice! Not too many burn out videos featuring a Ferrari… looking forward to seeing the conversion
Yes indeed
Reminds me of the days when Jay Leno would see if the cars he was driving could do a burnout 😂
Lol
Really like the picture of your F40 on the wall!! That was a glorious day!
Yes it was!
I've had my 430 for 3 years now, and I've never done that. I've got a new clutch and tires. I've got try it at least one time.
It's pretty fun
Dan. I can’t believe you didn’t get behind the wheel and get in on the fun. lol.
Oh I'll take my turn
Nice driving skills there. Fun to watch.
Thank you 👍
The launch sounds like a rally car, I like it.
To be fair though, given the right situation (equal traction, equal torque to the wheels) an open diff *will* spin both wheels no problem.
It can buy it's harder to get both going
It's Always rather interesting to see the unknown 👍
Yup.
that was awesome... plus the rev-limiter works obviously 🤣
Yes it does quite well

🤔 This was excellent.
Cheers 🍻
Yes! At an absolute minimum, do the Forza controller.
Doing burnouts in a $200k car on less than perfect road...awesome. Stone chips be dammmmed...lol. You guys kill it.
Yeah! Quack it. Let's have some fun.
Niceee.. i almost could smell the rubber here 😂. Oh, any special video as the Formula One is going in Austin?!🎉
Ha!
Definitely a hold my beer moment
Haha yes
One more ?? Yes, yes please !!!
Cheers !!!
Lol yes!
SCUDINgswiss LED lights look sweet
Yeah they are pretty nice
Even in my late 40's a little de-gen behavior puts a smile on my face. Great video or shall I say fun video.
Right on!
F430 sounds awesome!
Yup
A few more burnouts from Josh within your HOA boundaries would be fun.
True!
Fantastic test and prove of the disabled E-DIFF, thank you so much guys for doing that! No doubt that with a disabled E-DIFF, all the power gets to the wheels without any weird locking. Best video ever made to prove that!
Thank you! Simple test but also fun!

You are selling snake oil w/ your e -diff delete and doing NOTHING but making the car handle WORSE !
the test proved it !

NO , so did not run thru both experimental variables , !

Awesome! Thanks for the laugh today!
Any time!
Dan says end of discussion Ferrari chat….
Lol
Just for fun, let's see you do a burnout in the GT40 !
Tempting
What is the advantage of disabling the e-diff? Does the normal function of the e-diff vector torque to the side with more traction?
It doesn't vector the torque as far as I know. The advantage of disabling it is less possible failure points.
The burnout would work A LOT better on smooth dark pavement, that will get you that burning rubber/smoke show. To much sand/gravel on that road in front of The Stubb.
Yeah
Now I can smell the burning rubber.
Yup, that’s what she said.
Lol
On a serious note, Josh and Dan, loved the video. Love them like a little burnouts on a Saturday after getting back from cars and coffee.
Haha yes indeed
Lc button on none us spec f430's.
Yeah sadly
5:03 💣💣💥👋great video 🤴🏻 dude love the content stay safe 👨🏿🔧#TowGuyTv 👨🏿🔧
Thanks
It was nice watching this video.. but i cringed alot.. i would never do that to my Ferrari
That's fine. You're missing out on fun.
Varoooooom
Yup
you could have ended the video with a Q.E.D. (Quod erat demonstrandum)
Ah yeah
I would never want to buy a car that wasn't abused and not broken ! FERRARIS ARE MADE TO DO BURN OUTS !
They are much tougher than people realize
No they are not, I have seen the damage this abuse causes, granted they are designed to go fast, violent application of power to the car from standing still stresses and wears the gear faces and the differential bearings and case
