The history:
With one-make racing series gaining popularity across Europe in the early 1990s, by 1992 Ferrari had decided to throw their hat in the ring. The Ferrari 348 Challenge was unveiled at Mugello in September 1992. Each 348 Challenge began life as a standard road-going 348 TB, TS, GTB or GTS model. Customers would then have their local Ferrari dealer install the separate Challenge upgrade kit.
To control costs, the Challenge kit focused primarily on safety upgrades and other essential parts for track use. The body panels, engine, transmission, suspension components, brakes, and other major parts remained in standard road-going specification.
The 348 Challenge kit included a bolt-in roll cage, a pair of Kevlar racing seats trimmed in fireproof red fabric, seat mounting brackets, four-point racing harnesses, and a fire extinguisher – all supplied by the renowned manufacturer OMP.
Additionally, the kit featured a Momo three-spoke steering wheel, a set of drilled aluminum pedals, an electric kill switch, an underbody NACA brake cooling duct (referred to as the dynamic cooling kit), a Challenge-spec exhaust box, Plexiglas front light covers, front and rear tow hooks, a 348 Challenge badge, and a decal pack.
