Spied: Lamborghini Huracán in Singapore


The new Lamborghini Huracán is no more a secret among us, recently the company has revealed to the world the long awaited successor of the Gallardo but still, since its public debut takes place in a couple of months (at Geneva Motor Show, to be precise), at the moment just some lucky chaps invited by Lamborghini are allowed to see the car for real.

The Lamborghini epicness of the day is here


A Lamborghini LP670-4 Superveloce and behind the wheel the owner which doesn't care that much about the tires of the clutch, this is really the recipe of a good video! Watching this Grigio Telesto SV leaving a car event in a cloud of smoke will make your day!

The Corvette C7 is a burnout machine


The new generation of the Corvette C7 Stingray is a truly successor of this legendary american icon; it's faster, improved and better looking! Although the production hasn't started yet, we're able to see a pre-production C7 showing what an american car might do at its best: burnouts!

Hear a 599 GTO Blasting in a tunnel



It's not really a recent video, but who cares when you can hear a Ferrari 599 GTO blasting through a tunnel? The high-revving sound of the 599 GTO is wild and loud, not to mention the outrageous downshifts followed by the backfire, driving a GTO through a tunnel is definitely a mental experience for your ears!

Drunk petrolheads at the Nürburgring



Is there anything better than drinking and watching a parade of fast cars at the Nürburgring? This video reminds a lot our traditional burnouts in the tunnels of Monza after a trackday, and this scene is quite similar, but of course it takes place in Germany, and that involves a lot of BMWs and beer, a good mix if you want to see right now a crowd of drunk petrolheads yelling and stopping every M-Car for some revs and accelerations.

Bugatti Veyron Launch!



The Bugatti Veyron is a very expensive car to buy, keep and drive, so that's why watching one attempting a launch with all the 4 smoking tires is a very rare scene! This is certainly a pretty expensive launch, the gearbox costs 170.000 $ and a new set of tires 42.000 $. Rumors are about this Veyron to produce an incredible 1500hp, not sure if this is true but the exhaust is certainly tuned.

McLaren 12C on a drag strip

We don't have doubts about the performance of the McLaren 12C, but it's impossible not to be surprised about this recent accomplishment on a drag strip. A completely standard 12C fitted with option light wheels, sports exhaust and carbon ceramic brakes has set a very impressive time of 10.55 seconds @ 134.56mph in the classic quarter mile, and it means that it's the second quickest road production car in the world (the record holder is still the Bugatti Veyron).

To refresh your mind, the 12C has received several upgrades over the years and now its 3.8L twin turbo V8 engine produces 616hp and 599nm, pretty surprising to know that it has beaten also the record of the Lamborghini Aventador with nearly 100hp more and the 4WD, as you know the perfect feature for a quick launch.

Aventador does Donuts!



Let's get to the point, this happens when you enrage the Bull, and you better be not on his way. A parking lot and the 700hp of the Lamborghini Aventador look to be a good mix to trash the tires!

Audi R8 V10 Plus 0-300km/h



The Audi R8 V10 Plus is a slight but important facelift of the Audi R8 V10 and now with 550hp and the S-Tronic double clutch transmission is really one of the best supercars of the moment! MagazineMotorsport pushes the V10 Plus from stand still up to 300km/h, the progression and the speed are just impressive!

Lamborghini LP570-4 STS Launch Control!



A very useful button that you find nowadays on most supercars is the launch control feature. If used properly, it allows the fastest acceleration from standstill, but if you push too much the throttle you will take off with the tires screeching and sliding, which is not really a negative thing because it's FUN! In the following  video we can see a red Lamborghini LP570-4 SuperTrofeo Stradale using this feature, love to see it accelerating in this way! Unfortunately we don't get to see supercars doing these things so often because launch control is not healthy for the tires and the clutch.

A little bonus here below, Valentino Balboni performing a launch control with an LP570-4 Superleggera!

Reventon vs GT-R vs 1098!



Once again, the guys at The BHP Project managed to take a fantastic video with the Lamborghini Reventon Roadster and a few other very fast vehicles, the Nissan GT-R and the Ducati 1098. What would you do with these 3 rockets and a 2.5 mile runaway? A drag race of course, but who's gonna win?

Ferrari 599 Crazy Launch



I'm always excited when my friends at Exclusivos No Brazil show me the previews of their upcoming videos. In Brazil there's not much cops so they can easily make crazy things with supercars such as in the following video where they burn some rubber of a Ferrari 599 GTB in the interstate.

599 GTO in action



There are many automotive rallies, the most famous might be the Gumball 3000, but there's always something in common between these events, and it's the show off for the crowd with noisy supercars. This Ferrari 599 GTO wrapped in a very bright green has been filmed while burning some rubber and revving during rally " The Challenge 2012 ". Too bad this guy almost hit a few photographers while performing a launch and drives like a crazy, forgetting that he's in the city centre of a huge city like Paris.
