    I am sure Brooks-Drag Times will share these modes soon. He is very transparent on his channel. I do know that in launch mode, and this goes for most of the turbo cars I hear about that you need to let the car sit there in launch mode for a few seconds to build boost. But I am curious to learn about this other mode Brooks is talking about and I wonder if the 488GTB and 488 Pista have it too?

    Launch on the TurboS is ferocious.

    Yes, there have been a few uploaded videos. Sound is significantly improved. On the F8, if you change the exhaust, you automatically remove the GPF

    Brooks goes in depth on various settings for best launch and also a “burnout” mode to heat the tires.

    I don't think Brooks will get another Ferrari for "americanizing" the brand with drag racing and burnouts. I know I am not going to try that.

    I heard. Probably too late to take back his order.

    Ferrari loves the free publicity from a relatively PC site.

    Sorry if that has been already answered, but I couldn't find a clear answer to this. Has the Novitec soultion as featured above the GPF still in place?

    No the GPF is part of the rear muffler assembly, it all gets removed.

    Wow! One can see or hear rather how the GPF severely affects the exhaust note. What a difference the GPF makes. Here in the USA, the GPF isn’t required in 2020 or 2021. Therefore, one could delete the GPF and still be in compliance with emissions. Now we just need Ferrari to not blindly deem the new car warranty null and void because of the modification. It is unfair to saddle American Ferrari owners with the GPF. Let other countries muffle their cars and lose their automotive souls.

    My dealership has installed Novitec exhaust on one customer car, but FNA told them to standby for approval for more. I don’t know what the hang up is, but if FNA gives the green light GPFs are coming off.
