Early 80's Mark Goyette and Partner Neil Glassmoyer developed a Company named Modena, and this is the "Prototype" number #01 build Modena (out of Five) that was built by Mark Goyette to scale to exact measurements and dimensions and features of a 1961 Ferrari GT 250 Spider- They started with Commissioning Bob Webb of Indy car fame (his Chassis are World Famous) The Front suspension has a upper A-arm and a lower control arm that is connected to torsion bar. The rear suspension consist of a Ford solid axle with torsion bars as the springing medium, four links for longitundinal location, and a panhard rod for lateral location. The centerpiece of this piece of art is the Steel - tubing two-by-three inch mild steel frame Bob Webb built Roger Penske race cars. On the skid pad this car generated a very respectable 0.79G! The second of owner of this car commissioned Smeding performance engines to build him a small block with the inners of a 427! Pumping out over 550HP- this car is not for the faint of heart, along with competion clutch and five speed transmission and straight handbuilt headers into side pipes this thing is a beast. The car has over $500,000 into manufacturing and production- This is the very car that John Hughes saw and picked for the Movie Ferris Bueller! It has been in several magazines and pictures are seen throughout the World in Movie Banners.


  Modena design was sued after the Movie Ferris Bueller aired by Ferrari Motorcars and a cease and desist order was issued and the production was halted! Five cars were built by Mark Goyette the other 30 or so were sold as kits.

Ferrari releases teaser video for 458 Speciale

Thu, 22 Aug 2013

As is the specs weren't enough, Ferrari is helping us get ready for the reveal of the 458 Speciale at the Frankfurt Motor Show with a short teaser video. You won't get much in the way of a full-body modeling session, naturally, but there are plenty of close-ups of its intakes, scoops, vanes, seriously racy bucket seats and lots and lots of carbon fiber.
And showing how omnipresent on-camera surveillance can sometimes be a good thing, the harder 458 has already been caught being tinkered with in digital photos taken at Maranello. For the moving pictures, however, there's that video below.

Former Dolphin Richie Incognito takes a bat to his own Ferrari [w/video]

Thu, 27 Feb 2014

Richie Incognito, the former Miami Dolphin's offensive lineman, reportedly vandalized his own new Ferrari FF with a baseball bat on Wednesday, in a story that is just the latest bizarre event to befall the professional football player.
Initial reports indicated that Incognito's car was vandalized and, weirdly, covered in t-shirts bearing the player's name. Following those reports, though, Incognito then told police that he attacked the black FF, although we're still unsure as of why.
Incognito has been in the news of late, following reports from the Miami Dolphins regarding his hazing of teammate Jonathan Martin. As for the Ferrari, damage seems rather light considering it was attacked with a bat by a 320-pound NFL offensive lineman. There are some dings and dents in the hood, and there's a piece of bat lodged in the grille, but beyond that, it looks like this FF will live to drive another day. Scroll below to watch a brief video report on the supercar beatdown.

Michael Schumacher's son Mick to test with Ferrari and Alfa Romeo in F1

Tue, Mar 26 2019

LONDON — Mick Schumacher, son of seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher, will test with Ferrari and Alfa Romeo in Bahrain next week, the Formula One teams announced on Tuesday. The German, who makes his Formula Two debut in Bahrain this weekend with the Prema team, will test Ferrari's F90 car at the Sakhir circuit on April 2 after the grand prix there. The 19-year-old, who won the European F3 title last year and is a member of Ferrari's young driver academy, will also test Alfa Romeo's new car on the Wednesday. "I am really looking forward to what I'm sure will be a great experience," he said. "But for the moment, I am consciously putting all thoughts of the test to one side, because I am also very much looking forward to competing in my first F2 race and would like to focus 100 percent on the weekend to come." Britain's Callum Ilott, who is also in Formula Two this season and is another Ferrari academy member, will make his F1 test debut with Ferrari-powered Alfa in Barcelona in May after the Spanish Grand Prix. Schumacher's father, who has not been seen in public since suffering severe head injuries in a skiing accident in 2013, won five of his record seven Formula One titles with the Italian team between 2000-04 and holds the record of 91 wins. Ferrari principal Mattia Binotto said the team's current driver Charles Leclerc was proof of the worth of the academy as a high level training program for talented youngsters. "Mick, who joined the FDA in January, and Callum, who has been with us since 2017, are definitely drivers on their way up," he said. "I believe that driving the SF90 in an official setting such as the tests in Bahrain and Barcelona can be very useful at this stage in their career."
