Re: Ferrari P4/5 Competizione Confirmed
The above pics are so badass 
I love this entire project, and how we get to be part of every step and test. No secrecy like with F1 McLaren haha. Well done, hope the testing is going according to plan guys!

indeed shifting is ancient technology - so is a fuel burning engine.. I happen to like both :)

Very interesting. Looks like a really great project, looking forward to seeing it running in anger. Any possibility of running it stateside?
As an American, it is his patriotic duty to do so.

Wild question that's been tumbling in the back of mind for awhile. My understanding is that as this is your own personally commissioned car from Pinifarina, you own all the rights to the CAD, build, engineering files, and any aero data.
If Ferrari asked you if they could lease limited manufacturing rights to the design for a special run of say 20 or so cars, would you allow them to?
Or, if one of the clone houses like Factory Five Racing or Year One approached you - knowing much like your Comp car it would be based on a F430 or a Vette chassis with the LS5 moved to the back - would you be at all receptive to the idea?

I do own all the ip of P 4/5 and P 4/5 C but they will both remain a one of one.

The above guy reminds me of the crazy professor in Back to the Future haha. The car certainly spits fire...
Dude thats Napolis, ie: the owner.
Atz knows. He was just being punchy.
I like the old school analog lap timer hanging around his neck. I haven't seen an analog in awhile. Flavor Flav would be proud.

Tomato red exhaust manifold ...
Someone's been pushing it :)
Have you driven at all yet, Jim?
Only you would be in a position to give us a rundown on the driving differences between the 4/5 and 4/5 C.

Agreed its a great picture
Re: Ferrari P4/5 Competizione Confirmed
Hi
Yes. My first drive was very emotional. She is very easy to drive fast. She has amazing grip. From the cockpit she feels a lot like the road car. She has less HP but a lot more grip.
The sequential shifter is very easy to use and you only need the clutch to get rolling.
Best
Re: Ferrari P4/5 Competizione Confirmed
what a epic looking car ! Ferrari should be proud having owners like Jim taking their own design to new levels ! The fact that it will be part of a race makes it to me already a winner - most beautiful is already decided....congrats again to the whole project !
