Unveiled at the Finali Mondiali held at the Mugello Circuit in October, the Ferrari 296 Challenge is the ninth model to be launched in the history of the Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pireli and the first car in the single-make series to sport a Twin Turbo V6 engine. Inspired by the Ferrari 296 GT3, the 296 Challenge leverages the wealth of expertise gained from its racing counterpart, catering to aspiring drivers eager to carve their path in the world of GT racing from the 2024 season onwards.

The Ferrari 296 Challenge marks a significant step forward for the Prancing Horse’s single-make series. The competitors’ progressive improvement in quality and competitiveness meant that the 296 Challenge development team were able to make even more radical modifications to the original model than would have been the case in the past, fully leveraging Ferrari’s unparalleled experience in the motorsport world.

The biggest change over the 296 GTB, in line with the development of the 296 GT3, is that the hybrid powertrain was removed to reduce weight and complexity. The electric motor and high-voltage battery were also eliminated , while the power output was increased to 700 cv, largely contributed to by the development of a more linear exhaust line in the upper part of the engine compartment, , resulting in a record specific power output for the segment - 234 cv/l. In terms of aerodynamics, the Challenge car adopts the extreme solutions of the 296 GT3, yielding unprecedented downforce figures. The braking system has also undergone a complete overhaul, redesigned with the first-ever adoption of new CCM-R PLUS discs, which use technology derived from the most extreme track applications. The introduction of this innovation, together with the circuit-specific evolution of the ABS EVO Track used on the 296 GTB, has delivered previously unimaginable braking performance and repeatability.

The 296 Challenge showcases an impressive ability to generate 870 kg of downforce at 250 km/h when the spoiler is set to its maximum angle of attack. This is an 18% increase in downforce compared to the 488 Challenge Evo. The car’s aero design focused not just on the pursuit of performance, but also on driveability. To achieve both of these goals, the car’s sensitivity to variations in downforce and the aero balance to the car’s ground clearance, yaw and roll were minimized.

The 296 Challenge is equipped with all-new Pirelli tyres, developed over a year-long rigorous a design phase that involved the use of advanced simulation technologies and a variety of different verification loops on international circuits. The use of a wider front wheel with an 11” channel allowed Pirelli to develop a tyre geared towards better turn-in grip, lower wear, and greater consistency over the course of a race. The focus on performance extends to the cockpit, where the central tunnel has been reimagined with a new control layout, ensuring that the vital functions are always within easy reach for the driver. A notable enhancement can be seen in the rear bumper, which, unlike the 296 GTB, now features an optimised vertical exterior profile to reduce drag. Two vents have been strategically added at the sides to channel air out of the rear wheel arches and into the car’s wake, optimising the efficiency of the rear underbody and reducing overall drag, thereby boosting overall aero efficiency.

This fine scale model of the Ferrari 296 Challenge at 1:8 scale has been handcrafted and finished in our workshops with the co-operation and assistance of Ferrari regarding original finishes, materials, archive imagery and drawings. The use of original CAD has allowed us to perfectly recreate every detail at scale. Furthermore, the prototype model has undergone detailed scrutiny by the Ferrari's engineering and design teams to ensure complete accuracy of representation.

The Ferrari 296 Challenge is limited to just 199 pieces at 1:8 scale.

Awesome Book!
This book was fantastic! I was watching NY1 one morning and some students were sharing the books they were reading this summer. One little girl shared this book and said it was the best book she'd ever read! So I bought it and noticed it had earned a Corretta Scott King Award, as well. Although it only mildly touched on the horrible institution abd acts of slavery, it was written in a way that a young reader could understand without it being extremely graphic. I am a kindergarten teacher in an African American community and while I cannot use it as a Read Aloud for my students, I will absolutely ask my principal if she can purchase a copy for each upper grade teacher to be used for our daily, morning, read aloud. Our children must learn about their history because in may ways it will give them strength, perseverance and will also assist in shaping their future. Sharon Draper did an amazing job!

Factual young adult read!
Format: Paperback
The book was as wonderful as could be expected considering the subject matter. The author clearly did her research. That was made apparent early own when she depicted African storytelling. It was fast pace and the writing style was simplistic. I later discovered this is consider a young adult read so that’s why the simplistic writing style and the lack of profanity. Yes, there were racial slurs and derogatory remarks, but nowhere near as heavy and hard hitting as other books I’ve read. I would consider it “clean” and the rape scenes were brief and not detailed. I will say I initially struggled with Polly’s introduction into the story. My mind immediately went to white savior and I was put off. Even after I realized that wasn’t the narrative the author was going for I still struggled to like her detailed presence and felt like the story should have been solely focused on Amari. However after I got about half way through the book the author skillfully made me forget all about that dislike with a surprising plot twist. From then on I had to read with my hand covering the adjacent page because my eyes would try to skip over and read what’s next. The end of their journey had started to feel a bit fairytalish but the author subtly rectified that with numerous clear facts. So that was appreciated. I feel like some authors try to say “well yeah they went through all these horrible things but they finally were free and lived happily ever after”… like no, not quite. In the afterword, Draper does separate fact from fiction and encourages the reader to do some deeper research of their own. She list numerous informative sites as well as books. I do feel like the simplistic writing style and the fast pace story took away from the emotional depth of the characters. Just to clarify, this is a work of fiction but the facts of the story are true.

Incredible story and amazing research ❤️
Format: Paperback
I read this book in middle school and never got a chance to finish reading it. I’m happy I was able to remember the name of the book and find out what happened to Amari. I loved how the Author put a lot of historical places and research into this book. I love how she added the indentured servant Polly. I never knew what an indentured servant was? This story was beautiful but I felt Polly, Amari and Tidbit had tremendous luck with getting to freedom. Seems like everyone was willing to help them which I found odd. I understand that the book is suppose to be Fiction but it didn’t seem realistic to only have Clay searching for them? I’m pretty sure back in those times runaways slaves/indentured servants were hunt down. I just wish the author would have made that part more realistic . I wish she would of added in the story slave hunters and people putting up rewards for them to be captured. It would of made me feel like I was transported back in time. Other than that this was an incredible story. Towards the end of the book is the best part. You can actually look up all the websites/research she used to create this book. I looked up most of those websites and was quite amazed. I’m a huge history buff so this was very exciting for me. 😍❤️😁
