Ferrari Mailing List: Re: 308 GT4 - ATTN Rob Garven!

[Peter Rychel (dino308gt4]

My plan was to run the GT4 in the novice group at the Annual. I can write off 2021, but things should be a go-ahead after that.

 

Much like how Erik pointed out in the recent 348 email chain, my cars are strictly street driven (and the streets around these parts aren’t exactly in the best shape. With compliant spring rates and balloon tires, the GT4 is WAY more enjoyable to drive).

It would be fun to compare a GT4 with a GTB/S back to back.

 

Maybe next year at Tremblant for the FCA Annual??

 

Stock GTB/S spring rates are really soft which gives them the great ride. And, as you point out, the bigger sidewall on the smaller wheels does a lot too.

Ha ha, haven’t been there yet (because of stupid COVID)!

 

I haven’t driven a 308 GTB/S yet, but riding in one, it did feel more compact. I have hustled my car through some curves at speeds WAY beyond my comfort level and was amazed at how planted the car was. I am more amazed that despite that feeling of being glued to the road, the suspension is really comfy (plus the 14” tires help).

 

I’m really itching to get a 328 and am debating if I should spring for the later ABS car. I’ve read that there is a big difference between those two (non-ABS vs ABS) and it’d be interesting to see how it would be, up against the GT4.

Yes, where are Peter’s track data downloads from St. Jovite??

In Sports Car rag I recall the Dino’s pros and cons when the 308 GTB’s came out.  Said something like – little black Ferrari signet may have pushed for the new GTB design but the 308 gt4 Dino will out handle a GTB any day.

 

What say thee Peter?  Anyone?
