we figured to celebrate our paper anniversary let's start off with

something special tada

sometimes all you need about a car is in the name and think about it

Lamborghini obviously Aventador means it's the big mother with the v12

billionaire doors Super Veloce translated from Italian literally means

super fast and without butchering the Italian language I can tell you that

LP750-4 means right behind your head is 741 screaming

horsepower going to all four wheels

question becomes is there any way this thing can drive as good as it looks

there's only one way to find out

before you get moving let's start with the difference between the regular

Aventador and the Super Veloce other words why is this car cost $100,000 more

the quick and dirty answer is the classic combination of more power and

less weight they added 50 horsepower and they dropped a hundred and ten pounds

some of the ways achieve that is they got rid of all the active Aero stuff

with the words of the wing that pops up they have a fixed carbon fiber wing

instead of the air intakes that flap up there is fixed carbon fiber pieces

nobody is safe way but I think it looks a lot better than what is an extreme

measures to instead of carpeting the floor mat in this thing is just a giant

sheet of aluminum covered in grip tape just like skateboard which happens to

be my favorite part of the car but the most important part of the SV are two

things

magnetic shocks and dynamic steering and believe you me they make a huge difference

like many of you I did not win the Powerball however I am lucky enough that

somebody had to be the key to a $500,000 Lamborghini I have a tunnel in downtown

Los Angeles and two police officers who shut it down either end and 15 gallons

of gas had a couple chances over there I can play in this tunnel with this car

all night

pull the right pedal to engage first gear in a little thing here in Italian and says

something about launch control is now available to take your left foot

bury the brake pedal with it take your right foot to floor it you let go and you hold on

it's just an animal ok bury the brake pedal

left foot right foot

that tunnel was fun and all but this this car like the Super Veloce belongs

it is just the king up here wow it's just murdering this road I had to wear my special shirt I don't think I've been under triple digits very much the grip the way it hangs on

ok I got to clam down take it down a notch couple things that are super unique about the Super Veloce one is in sport the cars actually looser than

magnetic shocks just like the 488 just like the Audi r8 v10 plus just like the Oricon

just like a Camaro a lot of companies that do a lot of the development work of switching to them because what they're really good at on a bumpy road like say

Big Willow they eat that stuff up you know my favorite car Lamborghini Countach I first saw that

day when I was 10 years old

till now it still blows me away no V12 big Lamborghini has ever delivered on performance not the mira

not the countach not the Diablo

not the murcielago maybe the SV was getting there not the Aventador but the Super Veloce LP 754 this makes all my Countach dreams come true

whats the biggest difference most important factor differentiating regular Aventador from the Super

Veloce

he told me that shocks that make the biggest difference I got to agree

this is not drive like an aventador this drives like a giant WRX I say that as a two time WRX owner

you don't need stability control it's so naturally mechanically stable

awesome

here I am flying over turn six here at Willow in the Super Veloce

I really don't have no idea why I'm here and I don't know what I'm doing but Jesus I'm going fast as brutal as the Super Veloce is it is

we know it's a great handling car in fact the production car lap record at

the Nurburgring is currently held by the Porsche 918 Spyder in about six minutes

57 seconds this thing you know six minutes 59 seconds remember the Porsches

got batteries gonna thousand horsepower

this is all engine a little birdie told me actually is quite a big Italian birdie

anyways he told me that this did the 659 after only two laps and that volkswagen corporate

said no more because they didn't want to embarrass the million dollar Porsche he

thinks the SVC here could beat the 918 at the Nurburgring I think in

the hands of the right driver the Aventador Super Veloce could be the 918

here at big willow this is gonna blow up Instagram and YouTube for Randy only to

get the car and drive you have to ask me twice

well sir how she do man that's a lot of car Jonny 740 horsepower and I love every single Italian one of them when I got some bad

news for my theory and facts are tricky thing you did a one minute 25.4

two very quick

not the fastest actually slower than the huracan and way slower than the two

seconds slower than the 918 but its own courses and right now the proud the

courses are the most aggressive tires they make in this size and next year

next model year they're gonna have trofeo r how much of a difference you think those

tires would make it could be a couple seconds so could be quicker than

the 918 have to come back and find out

yeah look forward to that

one of my favorite lines from Moby Dick was a whaler's wonder basically the first time you harpoon a sperm whale it's an awesome

are inspiring occasion but the 10th time a job is just a message on the same is

true of supercars yes they're fast loud and comically impractical but after 10

of what times dinner not so with the super veloce

starting mini riots at gas stations to the absurd violence of thrustburg to eating ten gallons of premium fuel every twenty

miles to murdering poor pirellis on the race track every single thing the sv does inspires deep pools of awe

Lamborghini unwittingly wrote a bunch of large checks a generation ago thousands

of young deer hit on posters of the wild looking Countach in the bedroom walls

leaving legions of young kids with little more than the opportunity to

stare and dream these kids are now grown and some of them have the means to

purchase the Countach his spiritual successor guess what this whalers wonder

wayne's no more
