Hi all just back from testing and driving the 458 Ferrari.
firstly we got to see how the launch control worked this was done over a 2 mile straight and i got a recorded time of 179MPH. AFTER 5 ATEMPTS I COULD NOT IMPROVE ON THE TIME AS THE TRACK WAS DAMP.
we then moved on to the banked circut 140.00 mph and no hands takes a bit of getting used to
then on to the high light of the day 8 laps of the course. the 458 drove fantastic, and the new steering rack is a lot sharper and the car went where ever you pointed it. in race mode and with the new e diff 3 setting,the car came into its own helping breaking and making the tight turns a delight with little of the back end stepping out.
all in all a great day. so thank you Ferrari, C Hursts and all the instructors
