"It is fair to say that Ferrari honed and fettled just about every detail of the F430 to create the Scuderia. For the sonorous V-8 engine, the piston crowns were reprofiled and refined, whilst a revised carbon fibre air intake and higher flowing exhaust system were also employed. Their combined effect allowed for a compression ratio increase and a rise in power output to over 500 bhp..."

The Buick 430 was used in full size sedans and Rivieras in the late 1960s. It has a robust, 'old school' valve train compared to most other GM engines of the era, I guess showing that Buick was the top of GM's line under Cadillac. This section view also shows the first generation of pollution control apparatus, the stove pipe to warm the intake air from the exhaust manifold at the right and the positive crankcase ventilation hose leading from the valve cover to the air cleaner at the left. I believe both of these details began in 1968.
And I like the size of that intake passage above the piston on the right.....
Serving as the successor onto the Challenge Stradale, the 430 Scuderia was unveiled by Michael Schumacher at the 2007 Frankfurt Auto Show. Aimed to compete with cars like the Porsche RS-models and the Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera, meaning super light weight, it is lighter (by 100 kg/220 lb) and more powerful (515 PS (508 hp/379 kW) at 8500 rpm) than the standard F430. Increased power comes from a revised intake, exhaust, and an ion-sensing knock-detection system that allows for a higher compression ratio. Thus the weight-to-power ratio is reduced from 2.96 kg/hp to 2.5 kg/hp. In addition to the weight saving measures, the Scuderia semi-automatic transmission gains improved "Superfast", known as "Superfast2", software for faster 60 millisecond shift-times. A new traction control system combines the F1-Trac traction and stability control with the E-Diff electronic differential. The Ferrari 430 Scuderia does 0–60 miles per hour (97 km/h) in 3.1 s and 0–100 km/h (62 mph) in less than 3.6 seconds, with a top speed of 198 miles per hour (319 km/h).
The cosmetic differences between the 430 Scuderia and the F430 upon which it is based include a re-styled front fascia, modified side-skirts, twin exhaust tips, a revised rear diffuser design, 19" wheels designed specifically for the 430 Scuderia, carbon-fibre wing mirrors, carbon-fibre challenge grille, two racing stripes along the middle and the 430 Scuderia badge.

It takes 430 years for the light from Polaris (the north star) to arrive on earth... It travelled all that way to get sucked into the lens of my camera and chucked into my gallery...

As you can imagine it is pretty boring standing in a field for 40 mins in the cold... what really made it painful was the church about 30 meters away from me decided tonight would be a good night to ring its bells constantly for 30 of the minutes...
Good times...
