Tuning a Ferrari... expensive, but not uncommon.

There is a new tuning package for Ferrari 599 GTO by Romeo Ferraris tuner.

For achieving the power they imagined, they will install high-flow air filter and new sport exhaust system on your 599 GTO. This will resolve in engine producing 676 hp and 633 Nm of torque. This is 15 hp and 13 Nm more then the standard 599 GTO.

There is also Stage 2 package for even more power, if you don't find 676 hp satisfying. With diffrent exhaust system and ECU remap, you can get 700 hp in your super car. This adds 40 hp and 48 Nm of torque to 6.0-liter V12 engine.

Hey guys, I know I haven't been around the forums or showing off my works, but I haven't rest, I can assure you that!

I've decided, after Matt kept pushing me, to post my latest couple of personal projects.
No biggie, they are expensive cars, exclusive or recently launched cars, that I like very much. That plus one of my favorite wheel maker, ADV.1.

Ferrari California will get upgrades in this year, both on performance and body sections.

On a day three, fastest vehicle on track was yet again, Mercedes. Nico Rosberg drove 118 laps an set time of 1m17.613s which was fastest time set on this year's testing in Jerez, remembering that they still drive with the car from last season.

Behind him was Roman Grosjean in Lotus who was 0.8s slower. Roman drove just 1 lap less than Nico in Mercedes. Behind them were Seb Vettel in Red Bull, Lewis Hamilton in McLaren and Jean-Eric Vergne in Toro Roso.

Leaked details by Autosprint include drawings by technical illustrator Giorgio Piola, which are reportedly "inspired by (the) McLaren" of last year. New F12, or F2012, as it should be named, will have  "many other features that should make it really extreme", sad the weekly.

"Some people called it bad after seeing the shapes, probably because of the hump on the nose, but the final version should be smooth." - as we find out at Autosprint website.

All weekend there were signs that Lewis Hamilton’s mojo was coming back, and a dominant victory in Abu Dhabi was just what the McLaren driver needed. In celebration, he dedicated it to his mother Carmen, whose birthday it was.

He was helped immeasurably as Sebastian Vettel spun into retirement in the second corner as his right-rear tyre came off the rim of his Red Bull, but it wasn’t an easy run to the flag as Ferrari’s Fernando Alonso grabbed second place from McLaren’s Jenson Button on the opening lap and thereafter kept him honest.
