I guess we'll have to wait for Top Gear to time it around Dunsfold then, to get an idea of relative performance.
Not that the Nordscheife time was pretty bloody impressive...
It was 1.1 seconds quicker (1:16) on the Grand Tour than a 720s which is pretty impressive considering the fact it is basically 100hp down. It was a second quicker than a Ford GT as well and only 1.3 seconds behind a Vulcan so it is bloody quick!

I don't think anyone is taking the Grand Tour times serious... for anything, not just the Perfomante.
TGT don't really take anything seriously...

The standard Huracan was very quick around the TG track and I'd expect the Performante to beat it by a few seconds which would make it just about the quickest thing around there!

Best Supercar out there right now. Can't beat a Naturally Aspirated V10 engine on full chat. Dying breed that will be sadly missed. Hope gen II Huracan isn't going to be a hybrid as rumoured
Performante is considered better than a 458 Speciale according to some Youtube Ferrari fanboys

488 Pista ke may be ultimately quicker but meh to turbocharging and you cant even get one unless you are a A lister.
Serial Ferrari owners are well pista off that they don't even qualify

Long live the V10 Naturally Aspirated Engine, long Reign the Lamborghini Huracan Performante

Do you find it embarrassing that they had to cheat to get their ring time, then Porsche blew it out of the water anyway?

Why is no one talking about the GT2RS ?
Because its another boring squashed Beetle
Is that why you ordered a 991.1 GT3?
