I got to drive the above yesterday on a track. Is there anything better than the challenge??? Mind blowing.

After previously driving a 360 and hating it, I fell in love with the 430s noise, speed and epic grip. Does anyone have one on here?

THave Scuderia GT3 which is similar maybe better aero but just try the 458 Challenge as it is step up .the 430 is a much more difficult car to drive fast although I think it is a good looking car

IM not sure there are any 458 challenge cars available to drive in the UK. Will keep an eye out.



I think I am right in thinking that the car has Performance Friction discs instead of the carbon ones that they are supposed to come with.

Absolutely the right thing to do. Just slightly out of budget. :-)
