Drive a Ferrari F430 F1 On a Racetrack!

“To say a Ferrari is fast is like saying that water is wet, but the F430 F1 is so much more”.

This famous quote from Davide Kluzer, Ferrari’s press representative, captures the essence of what makes driving a Ferrari F430 F1 so amazing. From the moment one sits behind the wheel of this pure Italian super pony, they quickly realize the Ferrari F430 F1 is more than just a supercar; the F430 is a work of art. read more >

The Pininfarina-styled aluminum bodywork is reminiscent of the Ferrari racing models of the 1960’s, in particular, the Ferrari 156 Grand Prix driven by the late Phil Hill who won the 1961 Formula One World Championship. This exterior design captures Ferrari’s extensive racing history down to the smallest details. The front air intakes are considerably larger than those found on the Ferrari F360 (the F430's predecessor). The F430 has raised Enzo-style taillights and a vented rear engine cover, these are only two minute aspects, which contribute to the F430 having a completely different look than the previous F360 model.

The cabin of the F430 blends Ferrari’s racing spirit with touches of luxury, suggesting the possibility that this prancing horse could be used as a daily driver. The seats are covered in fine leather that presents an elegant feel with touches of brushed aluminum, which compliment the curves of the dash panel. Large, well-placed paddles mounted on the steering column allow the driver to shift through gears in as little as 150 milliseconds, which is less than half the time it takes for the average human eye to blink.

The driver can customize driving preferences by adjusting the console-mounted manettino, that loosely translates to mean little handle or little manager. This rotary knob has 5 levels; each level alters the stability of the vehicle while also changing the level of aggression. The five positions assist the driver by making adjustments to shock valving, shifting speed and traction-control. In other words, set the level at zero and have full control of the vehicle, or turn the level to 5 and the car practically drives itself.

The engine of the Ferrari F430 is a 4.3L V8, derived from a collaborative effort between Ferrari and Maserati. This new engine took Ferrari in a completely different direction than previous variants of the Dino racing program, first developed in the 1950s. This 60 year development cycle between Dino and Ferrari came to an end with the creation of the 4.3L V8. This motor is expected to replace almost all Dino-derived V12 motors. The 4.3L V8 produces 490 horsepower at an screeching 8,500 rpm, illustrating the F430’s high performance pedigree. This allows the F430 to deliver 343 foot pounds of torque, with a top speed of 198 mph. The power plant of the F430 produces a horsepower to liter ratio of 114 bhp per liter. When comparing 0 to 60 times with the F360, Ferrari F430 drops 0 to 60 in just 3.9 seconds, which is 0.4 seconds faster than the F360.

Very seldom in the world of supercars do we get state-of-the-art technology packaged with such an exquisite interior design, superior attention to detail and breathtakingly powerful performance. Fiery Italian supercar passion creates the welds that hold it all together, engendering debate as to whether this is a racecar, a supercar, a luxurious work of art, or just simply the best car ever made. The Ferrari F430 F1 is definitely a vehicle that poses such a question.

A true racing classic by every stretch of the imagination, the Ferrari 430 F1 delivers 490 horsepower with a 0-60 mph in 3.7 seconds and completes the 1/4 mile in 11.9 seconds. This Formula 1 inspired supercar is easy to drive while delivering enough excitement to last a lifetime.

Since I was a child, I have always dreamed about driving a Ferrari. The F430 F1 has a special place in my heart because it was one of the first Ferraris I ever drove on track and it made me a Ferrari lover! The paddles are big and easy to use, the shifts are quick but still very smooth, and the F430 F1 makes a wonderful noise that just rings through the cabin.

I did not enjoy my experience with Exotics Racing. The driver *** did not help with my experience. To begin with, the experience would have been considerably better without the use of the paddle shifters and I was not offered the use of an automatic. The use of the paddle shifters on the car I drove at Exotics was nothing like my *** I own and drive. He did not explain and instruct the use of the paddle shifting prior to driving, criticized my hand placement as I was driving this car, which made the entire experience frustrating. Instead, he never stopped talking and directing me on what I should be doing, eventually reaching over me to switch the gears which was offensive to me. When I was instructed to go to the right, I did drive on a course that was closed off. I was told that I had to take the car in for a pit stop and now he would have a mark against him. As I have paid for this experience, this should not have been my concern, but I was made to felt like it was. Overall this entire experience was a huge disappointment and I would not recommend Exotics, especially for a woman.

Instructor does not know what he was doing. Really bad experience. You won’t get what you expected and the instructor will yell at you and ask you to brake if you try to get fast. Hard to get over 100mph and I would rather drive an SUV tbh. As a very experienced driver I could easily tell that the instructor’s skill is below average.

Very crowded track. Briefing is a marketing and publicity effort, not a useful time to actually learn the cars and track better. Overall makes it very slow to learn track and actually have fun

I spoke to a woman about booking a group back in February for my visit in April. She sent me email instructions about group bookings and pricing. I asked her how could I pay for the booking as we are a group and don’t have a way to individually charge every member of the group. I WAS INSTRUCTED TO BOOK AND PAY ALL AT ONCE UNDER ONE NAME FOR GROUP PRICING. When my group arrived, they removed ALL DISCOUNTS AND GROUP PRICING. Stating that it was all booked under one name and charged everyone an additional $** and when I asked to have that corrected they offered nothing to correct the price. On top of that all they did is say I can down grade my car or get rid of the extra laps that were added. Usually I go by myself or with a plus one and when I had my group come to share all the good experiences I’ve had in the past. It was Absolutely embarrassing that my group had to pay OVER what they already paid. I STRONGLY ADVISE AGAINST GROUP BOOKINGS HERE. They will NOT honor their pricing or attempt to fix it! I was so behind through my day I couldn’t even speak to a manager that day about it as they were busy. Unfortunately Uber took me to their old location and made me an hour late. I will say they were good at accommodating me for that. Although it’s out of my control, exotics racing did their best to work me in ASAP from arriving late. That and my co driver were the only thing that kept me happy from my trip. It’s a fine experience if you book on your own. Avoid group pricing if your booking from out of town/online.
