These 800whp Huracan Vs 720S Races Should Not Be So Close

With each running around 800hp to the wheels, these two tuned Lamborghini Huracans should have no trouble beating a McLaren 720S...

The two Lamborghini Huracans in this video are stupidly quick cars. One’s an LP610-4 with a twin-turbo system, and the other is an LP580-2 with a VF supercharger kit. Both put down around 800hp to the wheels, so both should be able to best a McLaren 720S in a straight line.

But, these drag races go a different way. Watch the video above, and you’ll see what we mean. Conclusion? The 720S is outrageously fast.

It’s partly down to a conservative power figure. A couple of weeks ago we saw this same 720S put down 691hp to the wheels on a dyno run, equating to around 770hp at the crank. Yep, 50hp more than it should make.

But, that’s still less than the modified Huracans, and weight is fairly similar, so we’re still not sure what kind of voodoo magic is going on with the 720S. Could it just be down to aero?

If the top video wasn’t enough proof of the car’s spectacular straight-line performance for one day, above you’ll see another video from the same channel, showing the 720S making a Huracan Performante look a tad sluggish…

Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

The McLaren must have a more even power curve. Awesome to watch

Well the did dyno it and it put out about 790 and it’s no doubt lighter than the lambo’s I’d say. So for me I’m not surprised lol it’s McLaren they always lie about figures for some reason.

*670-710 depending on dyno if you’re talking about the 720S

To save you time:
The 720S beat an AWD twin-turbo 800 whp and a supercharged RWD 790whp huracan. Both estimated at 900hp+

yo give this hero right here upvotes😂

What I don’t understand is that the AWD huracan spun its rear wheels while trying to drag race

The McLaren is probably considerably lighter, and it might be even more powerful than 770hp. Or maybe the power curve is flatter.

British Kicks In.

Pretty sure the 720S has some hybrid magicks working to be able to pull away bit by bit every time the lambos change gears. That and the ‘box in the Mclaren is ridiculously quick.
