VCR Report post Posted May 4, 2018 Adding more HP and torque shouldn't be a problem at all. It's the politics that's in the way, Lambo has to ensure not to tick off the Centennario owners; at least spec-wise. Shaving 100kg off from the SV for a fully legal road car is likely an impossible task. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaving 100kg off from the SV for a fully legal road car is likely an impossible task. I hear the same political sensitivity argument from some sales reps but Neither the Centenario nor any other Lambo model was designed as the track weapon to get a Ring lap record. So their purposes are different! They can make he SVJ Spartan and less luxurious than the Centenario to keep the owners thinking "oh hell, I would not buy that track thing in a million years!" As for shaving 100kg off for a street car - wasn't the Veneno more than 100kg less than the Aventador of its day? Not sure but asking...

Fortis Report post Posted May 4, 2018 I agree they will not find 100 kg to shave, also on RWS, doesn’t it just work at low speed? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speed Demon Report post Posted May 4, 2018 if it beats the ring record I would even take 750hp Lambo does need to up its HP game a little... Ferrari Pista is 720HP. The 812 Superfast is at 800HP in its base version (i.e. not GTO or TDF version) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speed Demon Report post Posted May 4, 2018 I agree they will not find 100 kg to shave, also on RWS, doesn’t it just work at low speed? Fortis, it works both at low and high speeds. Turns in opposite direction to the fronts in low speeds and in the same direction in high speeds to "effectively" shorten its wheelbase in high speeds/track.

Thank you very much for the explanation, in that case the driving characteristics are changed completely. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct on the track-purpose part, but it's not the 'Ring time but the spec of the car that Lambo has to be cognizant of (hence I wrote "at least spec-wise" on my post). As to the Veneno, like you said, it was the Aventador of that timeframe. The SV is, at least supposedly, 50kg lighter than the standard v.1 Aventador. To shave off another 100kg from the SV (as APB suggested), keeping the car fully road legal with relative comfort and within not-so-ludicrous pricing would be mission impossible.

Fortis Report post Posted May 5, 2018 Haha also the 812 is so damn boring to look at. Don’t worry about HP, the SV has plenty and so will this one. I am worried about the color not the HP 😂 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

VCR Report post Posted May 6, 2018 I heard dealers will be getting SVJ demos, any truth to this? Not really. Some dealers have been given the opportunity to purchase one SV-J. Whether a dealer would want to treat the car as a demo or as a ready-for-delivery-if-the-price-is-right vehicle is at his discretion. IMO, it would be silly to treat it as a demo as (a) the profit of this car will be down and (b ) it would be silly to test-drive the car, love it and proceed on ordering one only to learn that all had been spoken for already.
