Ferrari FXX Prototype

Ferrari just released a prototype of the Ferrari FXX. It kinda reminds me of a mad modded enzo.

Quote:
We are pleased to bring clients news of yet another world première - the new FXX prototype. Designed to be the most advanced GT ever created at Maranello, it is the maximum expression in Ferrari's expertise in developing special limited-series sports cars using a concentration of race-derived technology.

Powered by a 6,262 cc V12 engine producing over 800 hp at 8,500 rpm, the FXX reaches new levels of performance. Wind tunnel development has resulted in a shape that produces 40% higher downforce than ever achieved before, while the adoption of F1 gearbox strategies has enabled Ferrari's engineers to reduce gearchange times to less than 100 milliseconds virtually the same as a single-seater! In addition the FXX is equipped with a highly advanced telemetry system that monitors no fewer than 39 vehicle dynamics parameters in real time.
The images are kinda big, so I'll post links to them:

That looks unreal. Barry Bonds must have hooked up Ferrari with some roids.

i think i'd take that over just about any car on the planet, so that's basically just the true race version of the enzo that'll be used at le mans i gues?

I read in a magazine about an hour ago that the thing might even get a 6.8 liter... compared to the 6 in the Enzo.

I really hope they start racing that at le mans. Ferrari needs more domination in racing since they are not doing so well in F1 this year
