Fiorano GT Challenge is a dueling launched steel roller coaster at Ferrari World Abu Dhabi on Yas Island in the United Arab Emirates. Maurer Rides built it, and it opened with the park on November 4, 2010.
The ride is named after the Fiorano Circuit, Ferrari's test track in Fiorano Modenese, Italy. Two trains styled as Ferrari F430 Spider cars race each other on parallel tracks laid out like real GT courses, with turns, straights, launches and boosts. Each train has three four-seat cars. The park gives top speeds of up to 95 km/h (59 mph) and a length of 1.08 km for each track; RCDB lists 3,281 feet per track.
The park's rider height range is 130 to 195 cm.
