Ferrari 296 GT Modificata track car unveiled

The car uses a centrally mounted 2.992-liter twin-turbo V6 making 730 horsepower and 800 Nm of torque, Ferrari said, 130 horsepower more than the 296 GT3 Evo. Ferrari says the car can be as much as three seconds faster than the 296 GT3 Evo at Fiorano, underscoring how much performance it can unlock when freed from competition rules and Balance of Performance constraints.

Ferrari has revised major engine components, including the connecting rods, camshafts, air lines, intercoolers and turbochargers, while also reworking the exhaust and fuel system. A six-speed transverse sequential gearbox with a carbon clutch, revised gearing, upgraded brakes and added cooling are all aimed at sustaining pace over long track sessions rather than just delivering headline speed.

The bodywork has been reshaped for more downforce and better thermal management, with a new front splitter, enlarged front openings and a redesigned rear wing featuring a central pylon and larger Gurney flap. The car weighs 1,330 kilograms dry and rides on 18-inch racing tires, keeping it firmly in the club-track category rather than the road-car market.

Ferrari is also leaning on customer experience. The two-seat layout includes space for a passenger and instructor intercom, while the purchase includes two years or 12 rounds of the Club Competizioni GT program. That package helps Ferrari deepen engagement with owners beyond the initial sale and supports the company’s broader strategy of monetizing its motorsport heritage.

For investors, the launch is another reminder that Ferrari’s growth story rests less on volume than on exclusivity, product cadence and the pricing power of its brand. The stock has been volatile in recent sessions, but the company continues to show that its product pipeline is designed to keep affluent buyers spending even as broader auto demand softens.

The next catalyst will be whether Ferrari can keep translating this kind of limited-run, motorsport-derived launch into continued order strength and margin resilience as it prepares its next round of track and road-car updates.
