It always sickens and saddens me to see activity like this happening on the public streets.
Why the Lamborghini Huracan Performante is fast
This video was uploaded and shared publicly of an unknown driver demonstrating his knowledge of car control skills in a Lamborghini Huracan Performante. If you didn’t already know, this is a 5.2 Litre V10 engined Supercar developing 631 hp.
This supercar is a track oriented variant of the model which has been lightened in weight by 40kg with extensive use of carbon fibre and forged aluminium. It also has an adjustable carbon fibre rear wing added to increase downforce.
The all new aero components on the Lamborghini Huracan Performante have active aerodynamic capability and designed to help keep the car stable at ‘High Speeds’.
The Huracan Performante is capable of accelerating from 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) in 2.9 seconds. With a theoretical top speed of 351 km/h (218 mph) this supercar has set one of the fastest lap times around the famous and challenging Nurburgring Nordschleife circuit in Germany.
Move your ego from the road to the track
So, if you do have too much testosterone running through your body and need to prove how good your driving skills are, and how fast the car can go, why don’t you simply take the car to a race circuit? This is the safest place to achieve the thrill of speed where there are no, trees, parked cars, bus stops or pedestrians you can injure, or worse!
Owning a car such as this, in my opinion is a lethal weapon in untrained hands. You don’t have to prove how fast it is as this has already been achieved by the experts. However, you do have to know how to drive it and understand the car’s characteristics and behaviour. In addition you also need to learn where YOUR level of driving skill and competency lies.
No matter how much carbon fibre, horsepower, type of tyre or generated downforce your car possesses, one huge factor still remains.
The laws of physics will quickly surpass your driving skill and that’s when things go horribly wrong!
Driving these supercars like the Lamborghini Huracan Performante should be a pleasure that you not only enjoy, but live to tell the tale too!
Contact me to find out how you can really find out how fast you and your car can go, all in the safe but very fast environment of a well run professional race track.

A few weeks ago I visited Cantabria, Northern Spain with a group of clients. I was fortunate to meet videographer Unai from UniCars. Specialising in reviewing supercars, he wanted to carry out a review on my new 2018 Porsche 991.2 GT3.

The Nissan GT-R50 by Italdesign was built to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Italdesign and the GT-R.
Italdesign, which is owned by the VW Group, developed, engineered and built the car. Elsewhere teams at Nissan Design Europe in London and Nissan Design America in San Diego took care of the styling.
The vehicle is based on an R35 GT-R, but looking at its radically designed exterior, you might never know it. Read more

Taking part in a track day experience is a really good way of driving your performance car beyond the limits of a public road. However, driving on a race track for the very first time can be a nerve racking experience.
What should you do to prepare?
Will your car be able to survive the session?
Will you be able to handle everything that can and does happen on a race track?
Will you actually enjoy it?
What could go wrong on your first track day experience!
