This Ferrari 458 GT could be your alarm clock every morning

The Ferrari are known for being one of the best supercars of all time. They have a great history behind them, and there are many models from the brand of the cavallino rampante that have made history. Among their supercars you can find all kinds of engines and bodies.

From a V8 to a V12, they reign across the Ferrari range, and even some turbo engine can be found. But one thing that characterizes all the models of the Italian firm is, without any doubt, its spectacular sound. The glorious melody created by the Ferrari engines is simply heavenly -especially with regard to its naturally aspirated engines- and even more if it is a racing vehicle.

This is the case of the Ferrari 458-GT, the track version of the now-retired 458 Italia. In today’s article we bring you a small prank pulled by some drivers of the Italian supercar. After a hard day of sessions and training, your body ends up exhausted and you need to rest for a while, the problem is when you decide to do it on the same circuit.

The drivers of the 458-GT have decided to give a small scare to one of their teammates for wearing a McLaren cap and wake him up in a very special way. The deafening sound of the naturally aspirated V8 that equips the Ferrari 458-GT came to life, saying good morning to the driver, who had the bad idea of falling asleep next to his most mischievous friends.

The Ferrari 458-GT is, as we have already told you, the most radical version of the 458 Italia, with the Speciale’s permission. Its design is entirely focused on being used on the track and dominating all the circuits you visit. Inside it, we find the same naturally aspirated V8 that lives in the standard 458 but in this case it delivers “only” 480 CV.

These 90 CV of difference are due to the fact that the 458-GT has a considerably lower weight than a street vehicle, and the power-to-weight ratio must be balanced to correctly fulfill its purpose. On the other hand, it also has a much more aggressive look. At the rear we find a powerful spoiler that helps give the 458-GT better aerodynamics.

Without a doubt, the victim of today’s prank will not easily forget this unique wake-up call his teammates gave him, and he surely feels a thirst for revenge. We hope that, whatever he does, he records it on video and uses an engine equal to or more powerful than this one to get back at them for the prank.
