The Lamborghini Aventador is no stranger to the Nordschleife, and has been spotted testing here many times before.
Stickers, Ts, Hoodies...
But this video isn’t just any old testing, oh no. This is a wickedly fast lap that makes the Porsche 918 hypercar look a little overpriced.
Check it out below:
The speeds are just insane. 295kmh before Schwedenkreuz? 281kmh UP THE HILL at Kesselchen! Or 325kmh into Tiergarten?!
And this thing has downforce to add to those super-sticky development Pirellis. How else could you explain the ridiculous high-speed cornering? 194kmh around the apex of Angstkurve/Mutkurve would be great for a slick-shod race car, but is absurd for a road-legal sportscar!
Like the 918, you can see the Aventador pick up incredible speeds thanks to the all-wheel-drive system, no doubt developed alongside engineers from Quattro GmbH.
The 750hp, four-wheel-drive Aventador was first mooted a couple of years ago. I saw this yellow beast and speculated it was the SV prototype.
Obviously, since then the concept matured and now we have this be-winged beauty:
Interestingly, although I didn’t capture any shots of this car lapping during the April ipool sessions, I did see the Trofeo support trucks and a whole bunch of other cars.
Including that black Huracan which also had the same driver at the helm and took to the Nordschleife for an obvious record attempt:
Will that be our next video? Who’s the mystery driver of these incredible hotlaps?
