Default audi r8 vs Aventador

Me and my buddy went cruising and did four roll races.

Stock v8 r8 vs stock v12 aventador

From 30 to 70 mph I could stay by him and then in the upper rpms he took off lol.

From 70 to 100 he put 4 cars on me.

I was proud of the r8.

Figured he would dust me worst.

His is the heavier aventador with the targa top and he had a passenger while I was solo.

Good fun though

Both cars are high end exotics. At that point, is not even about speed.

Thanks for the pics.

Beautiful cars!
Too bad there was no GoPro vid. Would have loved to have seen those runs. The sound of both of those cars accelerating must have been sweet.

R8 3450 pounds and 420 hp

3650 pounds with driver

Lambo 4200 pounds and 690 hp

4600 pounds with driver and passenger

Aventador is fast lol. Getting pulled by 4 cars from 30 to 100 mph is no joke. Im sure by 130 mph hed be 8 to 10 cars ahead.

I am surprised by the Lambos weight though. I think if they found a way to cut weight and made the aventador 3800 pounds it would be insane.

The Lambo is huge in real life. Its so wide at the rear that it actually almost was as wide as the lane it was in when I followed it. Widest car Ive ever seen from the rear

So when are you trading in for the V10? Or will that not happen for a while? Congrats on the new R8.

R8 V8? is it even as quick as an LS3 C6? 4 cars from 70-100 is like a boat anchor being tossed out type beating lol


The R8 is all about the exotic-ness and not about straight line speed and i would love to own one.. the V10? that's a badass accelerator.

Not as fast as the LS3 C6, but that's easily remedied with a pair of twins. Either way, the R8 is one of the sexiest sports cars of all time (imo).

Personally, I'd enjoy the hell out of getting my *** stomped by other cars in a V8 R8.

Hell I enjoyed getting beat from 60 mph rolls by a 2014 Viper GTS last weekend. Fun to see one of those scoot from 60-140.

Agreed with ZYBORG - at that point, screw speed, I'm going home in my sexy R8. Aventador is super nice as well. Surprised they weigh that much.

This is kinda the way I see it..

Compared to my last 555 rwhp 3300 pound viper....

A v10 audi r8 with 450 awhp that weighs 3600 pounds was gonna feel slow too.

I must say, I never quite understood you when you talked about how violent a Viper is from down low until I rode in the 2014 GTS. Think is hairy in low speeds even stock.

I like speed but the v8 audi is pretty sick.

True story..

Yesterday I was washing the car by a bank. A cute 30 year old half white half chinese chick with green eyes whos a flight attendant walks up to me and starts asking me questions about audis. Then she gives me her phone number.

Im a 35 year old average looking guy. I cant remember the last time somthing like that happenned.

V8 or not lol. This **** kills the panties

McDonalds dollar menu will have to suit her. My excuse would be, "sorry, I'm sunk in Audi R8 car notes right now." Lmao.

Yup. They make over 400 ft-lb of torque. At 2,000 RPM. Naturally aspirated.

The new viper is sick. If my bank would have let me purchase an out of state vehicle Id be driving one right now.

I was only allowed to buy a vehicle in hawaii. R8 is what I found.

Um kool though. The r8 handles amazingly. I mean really focking amazingly. Thing handles better than my last nsx.

I think a TT v8 r8 with 650 awhp and weight redction to 3350 pounds would be an incredible package
