    OK, 1st lap I was in sport to warm up, second lap I let a 488 go past who was a lot faster [ I think it was tuned and the young driver had his own overalls and helmet] but he ended up in the gravel so it was red flagged, on the restart I was in race mode which was much better, but it did seem to wallow in the corners, despite this I did over take an SF90 spider and a few other cars. The new rear engine cars handle way better now, and have more power. They don’t have the sound though or the leg room I need. :)

    Labor Day + birthday, so I decided to treat myself by taking all three for a drive one after the other (the fiat won the day) :) ... it was a great day!

    woot!

    I’m a loser. I ran* (stumbled, bumbled and limped) for an hour, perfected the breakfast sandwich and ultra spicy Bloody Mary and watched billions with the wife today. Wanna trade?

    I never saw a good example of the carbon door centers, so here are mine. The camera doesn't pick up iroko correctly, as it looks darker than what phone is showing. The upper door looks closer to reality.

    Sadly still waiting on spray foam, so can't take the car yet.

    I think he means hair gel or foam, to make sure his hairdo is not messed up while driving his new convertible home;)

    @soulsea do you find that photo to be representative of Grigio Scuro?

    The car in that photo appears a much lighter gray than the photos you have posted of your car--which I believe is also GS.

    It isn’t. I’m not sure what’s up with that picture (phones can do weird things) but my car has never looked that light and washed out, and I’ve taken plenty of pics of it in direct sunlight. It is a gorgeous color in person in all light conditions that everyone who has seen it loves it, including me. :)

    My car is here and can't with to go play. Going thru all the owners instructions, I noted a very
    carefully worded "Track Instructions" to keep warranties valid. Of note was the "commissioning by
    Ferrari service" and noted details. Have others followed Factory required track prep to
    perfection ?

    Drive to the track, floor it, drive back home with a smile. Done.

    I don't recall anyone ever adhering to any kind of Track Instructions. Not even the various dealer I drove/raced with on track did anything particular.
    Could be usefull after a serious track day to have your brakes checked as they do receiev some punishment.

    If you're serious about your track performance you need to manage your tire pressure and adjust it accordingly.
    Can be tricky to do it by yourself as you'll need access to a tire inflater.

    I remember me fighting at the Taylor made department asking for this carbon fibre part and was told 100% impossible.
    Perhaps now it can be ordered as an after sales option.

    Interesting. On mine and based on some of the other exterior carbon options, this part was not an option but a requirement.

    My dealer said it was obligatory option when I spec’d my GTS. We’ll see if my car has it when it arrives end of the year.

    IMO that section between B and C pillar would look less awkward if they are not opaque. But maybe that's impossible due to the structural strength needed from that section in case of roll-over.
