Remember: last April, we reported on the insane project of the Youtube channel DailyDrivenExotics (DDE), a Ferrari F12 transformed into a 1,300-horsepower monster<\/a>with two giant turbos and a character far removed from Maranello's hushed elegance. But the story doesn't end there. Recently, this same F12, now wrecked after several sessions of extreme drifting, was delivered to LZ Compound, the playground of American driver and YouTuber Adam LZ. His objective? Repair it, make it more reliable and, above all, make it even more formidable on the track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As soon as he arrived, it was clear that the car, the only one of its kind in the world, was in a terrible state. The steering rack is broken, the alternator belt is missing, and one of the turbos smokes abnormally. Yet, far from being discouraged, Adam LZ rises to the challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Once on deck, he and his team discovered that the steering had literally torn off its support, a direct consequence of the extreme steering angles imposed by drifting. They decided to reinforce the structure, add mechanical bump stops and review the entire geometry to prevent future breakage. The aim: to enable the F12 to harness its power in complete safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After several hours of work and welding, the long-awaited moment arrives: the test. On Adam LZ's private circuit, the F12 roars to life once again. The upgrades work perfectly, the steering responds perfectly and the supercar glides with surgical precision. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Only a slight plume of smoke still betrays the fatigue of one of the turbos. The result: DDE's already legendary Ferrari F12 becomes the most expensive and powerful drift car ever created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
