The execution
Michelotto’s competition F40 for IMSA GTO and BPR/GT racing — the works race version, later GTC-spec cars making well over 700 PS.
Nineteen cars built by Michelotto in Padova: larger turbos, competition suspension and brakes, a stripped shell around 1,050 kg. Late GTC-specification cars ran their restrictors out to roughly 760 PS — the strongest F40s the works ever sanctioned, and today the model’s ceiling at auction.
