No doubt there will be peeps crying foul that the STO was using 102 octane fuel but with the DA being 2400ft above sea level yesterday ie a 6% drop in power they needed the higher octane fuel to advance the ignition timing to try and match the turbo cars which are far less affected due to boost pressure increase...

The STO doing some serious testing at the Nurb yesterday using the latest Bridgestone Potenza tyres

Lambo STO record attempt at the Nurb might happen tomorrow, weather permitting...

What i wanna know is why the Huracan STO is using bespoke Bridgestone tyres?

Hmm, less torque than the Performante, same power output, but still slower to 200 despite less weight. Nice. Definitely is gonna take the Nürburgring record (not)

They really could’ve picked a better paint job to release the car in. Haven’t heard much about suspension and what it will be like to drive and actually around a track. I’m also shocked that with the weight and upgrading the brakes it’s still 30 meters for stopping distance. The 2RS is ~28ish. I think it will look way better in different paint and will do really well on shorter tracks

Intresting! It’s a performante that’s rwd only and hence being even lighter.
According to the figures they gave of 2.06kg/ps, that should be 1337kg dry weight. Maybe a 1460kg curb weight I’m guessing. It’s definitely not going to be winning drag races but this should be the purest driving lambo in a long time.

The Huracan STO looks awesome and i'm sure it'll be fast on track but it needs another 40-50hp.

Thank you to who corrected the post

Performante

It glitched

@FastestLaps, don't you think it would be great if we could see 3 or maybe 4 articles at the same time on the home page? There were so many of them recently!
