Autocar drag races the Lamborghini Aventador vs. the 997 GTRS vs. the Mercedes SLS AMG
Hard to control enthusiasm for such an epic comparison. Yes, these are all super expensive cars. The Aventador though is much, much more money than the GT2RS or the SLS AMG. Drag racing does not prove a supercars worth but it sure is fun to see. The Aventador was launched using launch control and with its all wheel drive and ISR transmission that does make a bit of a difference. We will not spoil what happens, watch the video and enjoy.

GT2 is by no means slow... And got flat out destroyed, I'm researching no extradition countries so I can embezzle the dough for this ride LOL. Seriously this car is impressively fast though I can't say I love the looks of it

Wow. I am also pretty impressed how the SLS kind of hangs onto the GT2.

I'm glad they didn't put up numbers. There would have been a lot of pissed off people.

If they were "hundred" dollar stacks instead you might already have an Aventador. Originally Posted by BigM62

I cant help but think the Aventador is another re-bodied power boosted Murc, At first i was wondering why in the hell the SLS was in there but it held its own (considering). And for anybody who cold hardedly believes torque wins races, heres yet another example that proves that wrong.

That was horsepower and AWD off the line winning, not torque. Originally Posted by lughed
