    There were 45 factory made 348 challenge cars - 32 TBs and 13 TSs. Word on the street from a highly successful 348/355/360 challenge series driver was that the factory 348 challenge cars had a number of "cheater" upgrades to the car and motor that were never revealed publicly. I've never taken one apart so I don't know but the guy who told me that knows his stuff impeccably.

    I was told by someone else that this is the serial numbers of the 348s that raced in the North America Challenge Series. I don't know what "unraced" means as there are a few Factory Challenge cars that were never entered at all and they don't appear here. I am guess "unraced" here means they were prepped and practiced but never actually entered a race.

    I formerly owned 094285 (a 1993 348 SS tb) and currently own 098791 (a 1994 Factory Challenge tb), and can confirm that both were raced in the 348 Challenge Series.

    I have heard the number of 355 created from a street car with the kit was 109. I don't know if this includes the RHD examples or not or if this included the one with the welding job at factory.

    There've been a few homebuilds in the UK FOC Series but do you perhaps mean 458 ?
