F430, Review Of The 2008 Ferrari 430 Scuderia
by Michael Rad
The 430 model range will get a new model in 2008 — the Ferrari 430 Scuderia. The car will be officially unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show by Ferrari icon Michael Schumacher. The Ferrari 430 Scuderia will join the Ferrari F430 coupe and the F430 Spider models already available to the public. The V8 engine on the Scuderia is similar to the other Ferrari models using its torque power. With this 2008 model Ferrari responds to a series of announced models by direct competitors such as Lamborghini and Porsche. The Scuderia is set to fight against cars like the Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera, and for now the battle is still open on both sides. This 2-seater berlinetta is yet another clear example of how Ferrari knows how to integrate Formula 1 experience into production cars. The high performance stats announced by company officials announce another winner as far as super car competitions are concerned. The Ferrari 430 Scuderia is basically a tuned up version of the F430. Clients opting for this special model are passionate Ferrari drivers that need some extra grunt and precision. Let’s have a look at what Ferrari actually did in order to increase performance of an already high power car.
Although it is based on the F430, the Scuderia is much lighter — 100 kilograms lighter, in fact. The Ferrari 430 Scuderia weighs 1250 kg. Put this together with the power of the engine — the 4308 cc V8 produces an impressive 510 hp at 8500 rpm — and you get a power to weight ratio of just 2.45 kg for each horsepower. The naturally aspirated Ferrari V8 is also impressive when it comes to torque output, and all these facts combined push the Ferrari 430 Scuderia faster than any other F430 out there. During development, Ferrari engineers focused on light weight materials and less gadgets and interior trim. This is how they managed to shave an impressive 100 kg from a proper super car. Since the car is lighter, it corners better than the F430 and has a more blistering acceleration. Other technologies involved in making the 430 Scuderia a better car are the F1 Superfast Formula 1 software used in the car’s computer management systems. It reduces each gear change to 0.6 seconds, allowing the driver more control over the revs and gear changes. Another major area where Ferrari engineers managed to succeed is the stability program for the Ferrari 430 Scuderia. It uses a traction control system that combines the already popular F1-Trac traction and stability control with the car’s electronic differential, and both systems work together as a single unit. So all the extra power achieved by making the car lighter is also complemented by better road-holding abilities, thus making the Ferrari 430 Scuderia another success from the Italian car manufacturer. The Ferrari 430 Scuderia is just one of the models that will make 2008 a great year for car fans.
