Way too many cheap plastic trim parts for the money.

Awesome looking car, much nicer than the GTR Black Series imo, the spoiler is too much and it just looks like a child drew it

Something like that.... said Super Trofeo in the plaque, I'm guessing that's a fancy Italian phrase for mad race thingy.

Lamborghini Manchester?

Agreed - looks crazy. I might be in Stockport over the next couple of weeks so may swing by and have a look.

I wouldn't expect it to be there long, could be wrong but I think it's in a traveling circus with the Huracan STO doing a few days at a time at each dealer globally. wink

Super Trofeo is their single-make race series. They are sort-of-GT3 cars. More power, slightly less advanced.

https://www.motortrend.com/cars/lamborghini/huraca...

Here's the differences.

Motorsport boss Giorgio Sanna sees the Huracan Super Trofeo as a stepping stone to the Huracan GT3: "We allow drivers to enjoy the power and torque, but the Super Trofeo is meant to be a scholarship car, to prepare them to move up to a GT3." It's a serious move up, even before you get it out onto the track: At $525,000, the Huracan GT3 Evo costs a healthy $216,000 more than a Super Trofeo Evo. If you already have a first-gen GT3, Lamborghini will sell you the parts to bring it up to Evo spec for a mere $150,000.

Lamborghini Squadra Corse chief engineer Leonardo Galante runs me through the key differences between the two cars. With about 500 hp—the V-10's actual output can be tweaked depending on the balance of performance regulations under which the car is running—the GT3 has significantly less power than the Super Trofeo. But it has 50 percent more downforce, bigger and stickier tires, proper race car suspension, a different transmission, and Bosch Motorsport MS6.4 electronics that allow much more fine-tuning of everything from engine mapping to traction control and ABS. The Huracan Super Trofeo is like the ultimate track day special. The Huracan GT3 is a real racing car.

Hi there,

To my mind the Super Trofeo is one of the best one make race series out there.

I think the Huracan is a great looking car and the Super Trofeo racer really works.

Loved shooting the 2016 race that was held at Silverstone. It was great to see all the different liveries on the same shape car. Here’s a link to the gallery.

A white 911 GT3RS. Turned up at the cafe, scraped the front splitter on the way in. Looked at the length of the queue and left. Scraping on the way out. The cinnamon bun and flat white were excellent. I thought i recognised the numberplate but it comes up as a red 911 so my eyes must be going wonky.
