F355 Market

Agree on non-shuffle steering on track, though I have quicker steering rack on mine. Beauty of well-setup 355 is capability of throttle steering.

 

Right, Claudio. Big Bend (Turns 1 and 2) at Lime Rock Park is taken as one turn with two apices. The car is controlled with both throttle and steering. A subtle lift off the throttle puts weight on the front wheels which turns the car a bit without using any steering input.

I'm doing this at 12:03 in this video...

 

My 308 is much more sensitive to throttle steer than my 355.

 

Because it's really not necessary (imo). I think even on the challenge it's to protect from drivers that maybe don't know how to rev match and slip the clutch too much - I've watched a few onboards and that is definitely the case for some (period) drivers. If you watch the races it's pretty amazing how robust the cars are, hardly any retirements even when collisions happen.

Feels probably not smart to buy an F355 from someone with “wholesalers” in the name, but curious if anyone has history here?

 

I'm sure they're just another used car lot. Their website doesn't mention anything about dealer license sales only. Bulk sales only?

 

Interesting to see Franchitti’s 355 (uk) spider with a clutch cover:
