With the 296 GT Modificata, Ferrari offers a select few a machine free from competitive constraints, allowing them to enjoy 730 hp together.
What’s the point of owning a racing Ferrari if regulations prevent you from exploiting its full potential? Maranello provides a radical answer with the 296 GT Modificata: keep the competitive ingredients, then throw the restrictions in the trash. The stopwatch remains invited, while the marshals can take a breather.
Unveiled at the Ferrari Racing Days in Budapest, this new model derives from the 296 GT3 Evo. However, its sole mission is to entertain Club Competizioni GT clients during non-competitive track days. Therefore, goodbye to the limitations imposed by the Balance of Performance.
Letting the Horses Loose!
The 2,992 cm³ twin-turbo V6 takes advantage of this to climb up to 730 hp, which is an additional 130 compared to the power stated for the GT3 Evo. Turbochargers, intake, camshafts, and coolers have all been reworked. The six-speed sequential gearbox also receives a tailored gear ratio. This makes every straightaway an event.
Of course, Ferrari didn’t just turn a dial. A new front splitter with vents, a redesigned hood for better heat dissipation, a centrally supported rear wing, and fins inspired by the 499P: the aerodynamics follow suit. According to Maranello, this freedom could gain three seconds per lap at Fiorano compared to the GT3 Evo.
The braking system benefits from enhanced cooling, while the ABS is designed to help drivers of various skill levels tame the beast.
And since happiness is best shared, a second seat accommodates a friend or an instructor. Intercom, data acquisition, and video will allow for commentary on the exploits, even explain the seconds that went missing.
Produced in very limited quantities, the 296 GT Modificata encompasses two years or twelve rounds of the Ferrari program. The price? The announcement keeps that little thrill for later.
