True, but it is smart on their part to try and take some of the heat off of Tesla's record-breaking run from last week. Most people dont know that after the Tesla hits about 80 it starts really tapering off, so if a car maker just came out with an amazing feet, its smart to go after them and twist it a little for the uninitiated "oh yeah...well we just beat them !" kind of thing. Regardless, the 720S is faster than the Huracan - and that is saying a lot, considering the Huracan is a beast. (I just hope the next gen GT-R obliterates all of them) philcruicks 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsupersonic Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Very impressive, especially for a stock RWD car. I wonder which stock car will be able to break 9's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hennessey Venom GT barely gets under @ 9.9 (I would think those 3 are the fastest cars on the planet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
