Wow, amazing sound!!! And I didn't know Carbon brakes could glow so bright (see about 3 mins, maybe 3:03 in). It does have carbon brakes, right?? Anyway, great post DJ. Thanks
Get ready to piss your pants!

Looks and sounds great. Those single lugnut wheels look great and hopefully they will make it onto the eventual lightweight 458 roadcar.
I'm surprised there is no specially made "challenge grill" on the rear, like the 355/360/430's debuted when their respective challenge cars came out. I know this would require a while new rear bumper, but they did it for the 430!

It took me a while to get over the front end on the 458, but this shot is the clincher. It looks so menacing right here. Love it! Can't wait for some more liveries!

The thing I like about 458 Challenge is that it looks just like any other 458, only with decals.
It's easy to see when 458 Challenge is compared to it's predecessor.
430 has some bodykit and spoiler.
458 is just so aerodynamically tweaked, that it doesn't need any of that.
That really shows the potential of a standard 458. Good job Ferrari!

The F430 Challenge doesn't have any body kits. It looks just like a standard F430.
But yes the 458 is very aerodynamically efficient.
