With the 296 GT Modificata, Ferrari offers a select few a machine freed from the constraints of competition, allowing them to enjoy 730 hp together.
What’s the point of owning a racing Ferrari if regulations prevent you from using its full potential? Maranello provides a radical answer with the 296 GT Modificata: keep the ingredients of competition, then throw the restrictions in the trash. The stopwatch remains invited, and the officials can take a breather.
Unveiled during the Ferrari Racing Days in Budapest, this new model is derived from the 296 GT3 Evo. However, its sole mission is to entertain clients of the Club Competizioni GT during non-competitive runs. So long to the limitations imposed by the Balance of Performance.
Release the horses!
The 2,992 cm³ twin-turbo V6 benefits by climbing to 730 hp, which is an additional 130 compared to the power announced for the GT3 Evo. Turbochargers, intake, camshafts, and intercoolers have been reworked. The six-speed sequential gearbox also receives an adapted gearing. Just the thing to turn every straight into an event.
Of course, Ferrari didn’t just turn a knob. A new vented front splitter, a redesigned hood for better heat dissipation, a rear wing with a central support, and side winglets inspired by the 499P: aerodynamics follows the movement. According to Maranello, this freedom could yield three seconds a lap at Fiorano compared to the GT3 Evo.
The braking benefits from enhanced cooling, while the ABS is intended to assist drivers of varying skill levels in mastering the whole package.
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, or even explain the lost seconds.
Produced in very limited quantities, the 296 GT Modificata includes two years or twelve rounds of the Ferrari program. The price? The announcement keeps this little thrill for later.
