Ferrari 550 GTS Maranello Prodrive: Aggressive Warm Up & Pure V12 Sound on Track!

As I told you in the previous video dedicated to this 550 GTS with on board footage, I'm now uploading a second video but with just its sound recorded from the outside, with a very loud and aggressive warm up and scenes taken around the Red Bull Ring during the 2020 Challenge & GT Days, a track day mainly for Ferrari GTs and Challenge race cars. The 550 GTS Prodrive in this video is chassis 117110 and it was built in 2004 ahead of the 24 Hours of Le Mans of the same year, where it managed to finish in 4th place of the GTS class. It was then raced until 2008 in various FIA GT and ALMS rounds. The car, as some other 550 GTS, is now managed by Legend Racing Service (   / legendracingservice   ). Ferrari didn't intend to start a program for the development and construction of a 550 Maranello competition model as it was totally concentrated on the Formula 1 championship and maybe they weren't even confident on their car's potential. Luckily, there were people that did believe the 550 could have been a great racing car. 3 years later its debut, several teams tried to develop a 550 race car but not successfully. Things changed when Frédéric Dor's company Care Racing Development commissioned the development of a 550 based race car to Prodrive in order to be raced in the major GT series and at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Initially known as 550 GTO (then renamed 550 GTS) of which a total of ten cars would be built over the next four years and campaigned by the Prodrive team as well as privateer customers. These 550 GTO/GTS were entirely built by Prodrive without any support from the Ferrari factory. The engine was a heavily modified version of the street legal 550 Maranello, but increased in displacement from 5.5 to 6.0-liter, linked to a a six-speed XTrac sequential gearbox. The car is producing around 600hp with mandatory intake restrictors. Compared with the road car, Prodrive managed to shave off around 550 kg to ensure the GT1 racer met the 1100 kg minimum weight set for the class. #Ferrari550GTS #Ferrari550GT1 #Ferrari550GTSProdrive --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I have to thank my friend and youtuber ‪@Italiansupercarvideo‬ for the great collaboration done during the event.
