First peak

Had a brawl with 2 RSRs last week.. bested a 991 first then got the 992 later when he spun... deadly they are on the track indeed.. some vids to watch to keep us excited for what's coming in under 24hrs now

 

After receiving XX - hoping Ferrari was on a mission for downforce vs hp.

 

Nice driving! Any pics of your Evo2? Those look so cool. I can't even imagine how many kids have those on posters (or more likely phone and computer wallpapers these days)

 

A very small sneak peak for what’s to come tomorrow.

Here it is with my 296Challenge..

 

Wow.. it's a car

 

This guy ****ing tracks. Incredible. Thanks for sharing.

 

I've seen enough. Calls on RACE at market open

lol looks like someone is getting excited?!? Is that a mirror or you just happy to see me?

 

that is a hilarious comment

 

TY I do what I can in service to this community

 

...and Chris Harris drops a spring gift video in a 296 GTS.. what a coincidence

 

No he is just flipping the bird

 

I noticed that too. Wonder if there is active aero?

 

Good luck with a manual transmission with a car that slams through the gears that fast.
You'll reach the rev limiter before you're able to shift.
Sometimes it's beter to keep 'the dream' a dream and not make it a reality.
There is a video of a Speciale fited with a manual gearbox; just look at how fast that driver keeps on shifting gears.
Now imagine that with a car almost twice as powerfull.

 

My Carrera GT 650hp and Viper 750 not a problem - gearing is much taller, more like 599 manual.
99.9% manual Hamilton incoming, he was brought in for marketing and he is dominating.
I think this was a deal that made for him to sign. The greats like Jordan 3.5 billion of wealth was due to their marketing value - signing on for shares vs endorsement check.
Stock rose 7B the day Hamilton signed, he knew that and negotiated that to his benefit. It certainly did not rise upon the VS

 

Based on Chico’s observations, I would say highly unlikely. It will probably look more like the rendering in this video, which is a lot more subtle:

With the already existing Assetto Fiorano package, I really thought Ferrari would make more radical changes to the VS design. Otherwise, how do you distinguish between the VS and the AF versions? They need to be visually distinctive in my opinion. One look at a Pista vs a 488 GTB and you instantly know which is the race model. I hope we get this excitement with the VS, otherwise all this cloak and dagger to reveal a visually indistinguishable new version will be all for not.

 

Are you involved in insider trading ? How else can you say today 'certainly' the stock won't rise at the launch of a car in 24 hours time ?

 

the car has two low low winglets over the taillights and the same aero brake lip carry over from the regular 296, the car is not "extreme" but really really cool

 

Because stocks trade on futures - the VS is already accounted for in projections.
For fun - lets see how good you are - take the ROI / profits on VS at 2500 units and figure out the stock price with that adjustment - when you get to 9B let me know and show the method you used.
If you are anywhere close - buy the stock based on your analysis - see how it works out

 

thank you. Looks like you've seen it. Less than 24hrs away but any other info such as redline. Is it bumped up the F80 or kept a couple hundred below?

 

I have no technical data/prices, but the car is really cool. let's wait until tomorrow, a little surprise is always nice

 

Are any of you attending a private preview event at your dealer for the new car (via video I assume) of the VS?
