    Pagani Zonda C12-S Monza

    Im sorry if this is a repost .
    First the info:

    Debuting at the Paris Motor Show, the Zonda C12-S Monza appears to be motivated by the Pagani Zondas which have recently ran the circuits in FIA GT and ALMS.

    Since 2003, the FIA has been accepting cars with carbon fiber construction in their chassis. This regulation change has opened the door for many manufacturers, including Maserati and Pagani who will set a trend and become more competitive as time goes on.

    Zonda race cars, called GRs, have been developed by Carsport America who have been modifying a road version of the Zonda for the FIA GT and ALMS Racing. Their successful experience racing and preparing the Viper ORECA cars made Carsport a good choice for partnership. Since 2003, Carsport has been developing and racing their Zonda GR while selling versions to other teams.

    While sucess on the track has yet to be had, Pagani is using their new race image to sell a road car which takes on the appearance of a homologation special. Called the Monza, this car isn't made to any specific regulations. Instead it is geared towards the customer which is interested in taking their Zonda C12 to track days.

    The first Monza specification Zonda was displayed at the 2004 Paris Motor Show and included several special features which can be included on regular spec Zondas:

    -The engine tuned to more than 600 hp.
    -The lubrication system is a dry sump
    -Cooling system has been improved.
    -The gear ratios are optimised
    -The aerodynamics has been modified for higher cornering speed with more downforce, with a new wing and front difuser.
    -The sport exhaust without silencers and catalysts
    -With the goal of reducing the car weight the side windows are in polycarbonate
    -The configuration of the interiors has been totally redesigned including new pedals and a new steering wheel and competition seats
    -The suspension setting is more rigid, more suitable to track driving.
    -The brake system includes discs with a larger diameter and the cooling has been increased.
    -The roll cage is reinforced.
    -Safety devices such as the external fire extinguisher and the battery disconnection.
    -Ait extractors atop the front wheel arches.
