    Just finished putting this together! Pretty cool stuff. I set up 2 Gopros around the build for 7 days.. over 20,000 pictures were taken, sorry for the low quality on some of the shots, had it on the wrong mode!

    That's fantastic. But any reason why it wasnt built by the factory?

    The chassis was damaged severely during a race last year in Homestead. The owner Purchased a new tub from Rossa Corsa Italy and we put it back together with Ferrari trained Technicians.

    This just happened to be the first Tub (chassis) ever sent to the USA for Replacement. Essentially it is a New Challenge car with the same vin.

    In order to have this happen you need to cut the Vin and chassis plate out of the other car:

    Takes a very long time for approval to do this type of procedure.

    Thanks !

    That was amazing. I was thinking the same thing. Why did they re-build a 458 from scratch? Wonderful job!

    This was the car that was wrecked at Homestead during a chin event on turn 10. Right?

    Just wondering, did one set of batteries last for a full 7 days? Kudos for some great filmwork, absolutely loved it! :)

    Motor was intact, but it was bad enough to twist the chassis! Hence the video :-/
