For competition , Ferrari produced the F430 Challenge for its Challenge Series , and the F430 GTC
in collaboration with Michelotto Automobili for international GT2 competition.
However, neither car was eligible for the Fia GT3 European Championship , nor the various national GT championship across Europe.
The team Roger Racing upgraded the F430 Challenge to GT3 specification.
The main improvements were to aerodynamics and power, with the engine now tuned to produce
over 550 bhp.

The 430 offered was delivered in 2006 as F430 Challenge , before being upgraded to GT3 specification and entering the 2007-2008 International GT Open Championship .
Entered by Roger Racing , this F430 GT3 was finished in red and blue, the same colours of its title
sponsor, Mare Rosso , a non-alcoholic drink made by Coca-Cola Company Spain.

The International GT Championship saw fourteen race across seven international circuits,
including Monza, Magny-Cours, Spa, Vallelunga and Catalunya.
This car was driven throughout the 2008 season by Miguel Julia and Jose luis Pamplo, always wearing race number 60.
By the end of the year, this car had chieved five podium finishes, resulting in a 3rd place finish in the championship .
However , the highlight was victory in at the Valencia street circuit in July.
This race history is documented in the technical passport which still accompanies this car, confirming each event entered.
For the following season, roger racing continued to enter this car, now in the Spanish GT Championship for drivers Armando Zagalo and Mario Silva. The season comprised of eleven races at six circuits across Spain and Portugal.
Having retired from competition, the previous owner bought this car in 2016 before sending it to BOX Sarl in France for maintenance and race preparation works. The car returned to the track including the Silverstone classic 90s Endruance legends event in 2016.
The actual owner bought the F430 GT3 in 2018 but due the Covid time and other business trip he never used the car which is still in our storage, will need a refresh before to back to the track again.
Every competition Ferrari is special but thanks to its GT3 upgrade this is the most powerful F430 competition car available with 550 bhp.
Whether your looking to enter the Peter Auto-organised Endurance Legend or the Ferrari Challenge and the GT Days, or just experience the thrill of driving a Ferrari competition car on track, this F430 GT3 coud be the perfect car.
