    Pretty good for a car that weighs 4,100+ pounds.

    That must have been fun! If the LC isn't enough to launch the car, how did you launch it? Just mash the throttle and off you go?

    I remember there was a "hidden mode" for lauch control on the 599. A French car magazine were at Ferrari to test the car and they were explaining that the Ferrar engineer was checking the clutch temperature between each launch to confirm of not whether they could do another attempt with the special mode, or if they had to wait. Is there any such thing on newer cars?

    HaHa, what do you guys want to know?

    The mods are as follows:
    - Novitec software
    - Novitec catless downpipes
    - Capristo cat back
    - Novitec springs
    - Factory coils spun almost all the way down
    - Novitec rear wing
    - Pur side skirts and front splitter
    - Custom red/grey strip
    - Double staggered ADV 1 wheels (21/22")

    Sounds insane, very loud. The only regret is that the exhaust smells like crazy being catless so much so that I bought high flow cats from Novitec which I have not installed yet, I like the sound too much. Yes I drive the crap out of it, like a Ferrari should be

    Ok I am going to be a bit mean but those times are not impressive...i did 10.6 with my 06cl65 with a simple tune in a car that is 2,5 tons...
    Of course my testarossa is slower but im not impressed by the ff’s time specially compared to an old car.

    11.3 at 124 is a great run for a car geared the way the FF is. how much hp does your cl65 have and how does it pull at 160 mph?

    670.bhp... it pulls like crazy.
    I have a bunc of car a s550 coupe, a testarossa, cl65 and from all of them the cl is the fasted in a straight line. Obviously in the twisties its dead last.
    Top speed ever achieved going to vegas 215mph.
    Its insane, best kept secret in the world this engine...well maybe not since pagani uses it as a base.
    Youtube cl65 1/4mile and u will see some guys with a bunch of extra tune do 10.2!

    The tune makes it go from 612 to 670. Pretty good for a 12 year old car;)
