FIRST EVER Ferrari 296 Speciale v Lambo Revuelto: DRAG RACE

Can Maranello's track-honed plug-in hybrid dismiss Sant' Agata's flagship V12 beast? Sign Up With Mat Watson as he pits the Ferrari 296 Speciale versus the Lamborghini Revuelto in a full-blown, straight-line drag race!

The Ferrari 296 Speciale has a beginning base rate of ₤ 359,779 however this one here is ₤ 500,000! Powered by a 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 combined with an electric motor, it tosses out a huge 880 hp and 755 Nm of torque. Power is sent strictly to the rear wheels through an 8-speed dual-clutch automated transmission, and it tips the scales at 1,500 kg.

Meanwhile, the Lamborghini Revuelto commands a starting base price of ₤ 446,000. Under the engine cover sits a naturally-aspirated 6.5-litre V12 paired with 3 electrical motors, producing a gigantic combined output of 1,015 hp and 1,062 Nm of torque. It utilizes an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission to drive all four wheels, though all that hybrid V12 hardware brings its weight as much as 1,890 kg.

Which of these multi-million-pound hybrid supercars will take success, and which one will leave its chauffeur grabbing reasons?

      @laurisalstrom7772 arthritis has nothing to do with interests. particularly an interest in cars. autism is commonly a label given to people who are extremely into cars…and trains, and aircraft…you get it now?

    7:20 If you put the car in MANUAL, you have to MANUALLY shift it at the right time. The limiter is clearly audible.

      296 speciale and revuelto and 750s and 2027 porsche 911 turbo s are the best super cars that money can buy right now;lamborghini should have stuck to their amazing NA v10 5.2L for huracan successor ,not their rubbish 4.0 tt v8(they did a great mistake)

      @OmerMawallathen why was the 296 going so much faster over the line in the drags? Just use ur brain instead of being a fanboy, that 296 is miles faster if the driver wasnt incompetent

    1. @End3r_Wiggin Avatar
      @End3r_Wiggin

      They are really starting to lose credibility. Definitely was not a draw. And they’ve had so many races lately where the drivers just mess it all up and they don’t bother trying to do it right.

      @kresimircosic9035

      ​@End3r_Wiggin I don’t understand what’s the big issue of randomizing the start time? Just get a green light or put your hands down at random moment instead so we stop the obvious jumpstarts.

    3. @adamlfc1892 Avatar
      @adamlfc1892

      ​@kresimircosic9035it still wouldnt sort it out completly, because everyone will have different reaction time, its like 150-300ms depending on person.

    @jameswillard1

    As a 296GTB owner for over 2 years and several thousand miles I can tell you with 💯 certainty that letting the car shift on its own is the quickest way to get through the gears as it is very difficult (to near impossible) to nail a perfectly timed upshift when dealing with wheel spin, fast revving engine with very little inertia, and a hard set limiter at redline. It literally feels like it picks up about 75HP letting it do it’s perfectly timed and lightning fast shifts on its own
