The Ferrari Challenge Stradale was noted as the highest performance, road legal version of the infamous 360 series when it was built in the early 2000s. Based around a 360 Modena model, the design has called on the classic Pareto principle by intending 20% for track use and the other 80% for road use. Boasting a V8-engine that revs up to 8,700 rpm with a top speed of around 190 mph, the engineering team behind the project removed all unnecessary items to make it as light as possible. Additional impressive features include Brembo carbon ceramic brakes, which removed 16 kg from the design and an endless array of colors to choose from. View the video above to watch and hear the Challenge Stradale in all its glory.

Apple Watch Sport Model Has a Superior Display to Its Pricier Alternatives
In a recent investigation conducted by DisplayMate, the diagnostics company discovered that if you are in search of the best possible Apple Watch display, it is best to invest in an Apple Watch Sport. The sapphire crystal alternative to the Sport’s strengthened Ion-X glass is rumored to reflect twice as much light as its cheaper counterpart and will bleach out the watch’s display in bright conditions. Although this does not directly affect the quality of the OLED retina display, it does essentially conclude that the higher priced Apple Watch is in fact not as strong or as functional when compared to the display quality of the Sport. It is also said that Apple cannot apply an anti-glare treatment to counteract the problem as it’s more prone to scratching – thereby defeating the point of having one of the world’s hardest transparent materials as a screen. The Ion-X glass used on the Sport is also an aluminosilicate glass that is especially resistant to scratches and impact and is far lighter than the glass components used on the Watch and Watch Edition.
How does this affect which version of the Apple Watch you’ll pick up? Let us know in the comments below.
