The Ferrari F40 GTE was used from 1995 till 1997. It still raced in the GT1 class in BPR and Le Mans like its older brother, the F40 LM. 1996 brought an aero update including a new rear wing, front splitter, rear diffuser, new door mounted rear-view mirror, new air intakes on the rear fender instead of the side-skirt and air extractors on the front fenders.
Michelotto turned seven road going F40’s into racing versions known as the F40 GT. The F40 GT is not as mad as the F40 LM, but that was done so it could compete in the Italian GT Championship. The body was lighter and 17” magnesium wheels, bigger brakes, a race exhaust and a better cooling system were added.
The new version of the F40 was built two years after the original made its debut and was ordered by the French importer who wanted to field it in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. In fact, the first two examples built were known as F40 LM and featured a more powerful engine, modified suspension and special aerodynamics. The factory started receiving requests from other customers and, in the end, around ten were built in total. It was felt that the Le Mans tag was too restrictive, hence the use of the more general Competizione.
It all started in 1989 with the Ferrari F40 LM ‘IMSA GTO’. The IMSA is a primarily American race series. The Ferrari F40 road car was still in production, so Ferrari searched for an external company, which became Michelotto. Ferrari collaborated with them on many areas before, so it was an easy pick. They started out with a standard F40 and modified it to a fire-spitting racing car.
