Behold The Majesty Of This 900bhp Ferrari 599 GTB Drift Car

The F12 predecessor doesn't seem like a likely candidate for a drift car conversion, but it's hard to argue with the results of this oversteer-happy monster...

Allow us to improve your day with just a few words: a Ferrari 599 GTB drift car exists. Doesn’t the world seem like a slightly better place with that knowledge? And what’s more, it hasn’t been given some predictable LS V8 swap. Nope, this beast - name Fiorella - is still running the original 6.0-litre Ferrari V12.

Well, not quite original. The FFF Drifting Department-built machine is packing two superchargers running fairly low boost, bringing the total power output to around 900bhp. It’s also now hooked up to a Holinger six-speed sequential gearbox. Other upgrades include a carbonfibre clutch, Öhlins dampers, 20-inch OZ wheels and a rather lairy bodykit.

Press play to enjoy the noise and tyre smoke…

I was listening a Maximum Drfitcast(it’s a podcast) and they had him on the show and said that Ferrari was ok with it. They didn’t support him with sponsorship or endorsement or anything like that but they weren’t against it either.

The front of that car looks like Richard Hammond’s scared face.
