    I've only driven it through the crowds of the streets of Le Mans so far, so I can't really give any proper feedback. But even at low speeds it feels different - harder and sharper!

    Hi Rik,

    I saw you and your Sessanta (quite the looker...) at Spa this year. Wanted to say hello but you seemed to be busy. Well, raceday is a workday for you...

    I think you'll find the Brakes much improved.

    Cheers!

    Compliments on the thread. I think it's really awesome someone with such a fantastic car is keeping us up-to-date. It must be an amazing experience everytime you step into one of the best Ferrari's ever made. Thanks again for sharing all those photos and experiences. I'll keep an eye on this thread as I find it more than interesting! :)

    OMG, such a coincidence. I'm the guy who shot those photos. It's one of those moments I'll never forget. It's the second time I saw a 722 and the first one ever in London. I was standing at the other side of the street when I noticed it coming down the traffic lights so I rushed to the other side to make some quick photos. Such an impressive car, I really enjoyed it. Hopefully there's a possibility to see it again this July!

    Kind regards,

    Jeroen

    Finally! I was missing your reports from the paddock!! So how does she differ from her original configuration? Can't wait for your rundown of the test. The car looks beautiful!!!

    I believe Phil Bachman's yellow FXX had an incident sometime last year but was quickly repaired.

    Rik or maybe someone else knows, I noticed there's a knob surrounded by numbers on the center console just below the start button and above what I think is the emergency power cutoff. What is it for? Some kind of traction control adjustment or something else?

    Whoever's pics there are on that link there really really nice.
