The Huracan definitely kept up pretty well. It's instant response from it being naturally aspirated and it's great launching ability thanks to its AWD system, definitely gave it an edge at times but due to lack of power and torque it just falls short from the other three cars. I'm interested to see what Lamborghini is going come out with to compete with the newer supercars from their rivals.
It’s really not often a car like a Huracan Performante gets dropped like it did in this video. The Ferrari and McLaren are serious beasts, and the 911 Turbo put in its usual work.
Its also the oldest car of them all and they carry more power than the performante. Not surprised at all. The 296 has to be compared to the newest v6 from lamb
Huracan clutch bangs so hard in first gear it explodes off the line initially, like someone threw it, but then spends a lot of time getting itself stable before pulling again. Porsche PDK revs the engine insanely high (over 6k) and can take hundreds of launches all day, so it is a rocket ship off the line. The PDK is insane
See that’s crazy I came here to comment that the dialogue sucks and I dislike hearing Mat. Mat is a know it all whiner and his ego is making him less entertaining to me and I’ve started to not watch or skip around on carwow vids. 😢
If we stop the italien dry weight bullshiterry and add all the stuff you need to actually drive the car like fluids and a driver both the Lambo and the Farrari weigh about the same as the Porsche. The Mclaren lacks the AWD system and "luxury interior" of the 911.
@@DonLee1980 True - the 296, weighs in at around 1669 kilos.. but 819hp - so weight to hp ratio is 10% better than the Porsche... It would need around 725hp to match the 296 evenly
@@kennethfich5225 There's much more to it than just power to weight. Traction and efficiency are also important, as there would be no way that the Performante would lose to the Porsche given the same power and less weight. The Porsche has something closer to 700hp and the Porsche has the best gearbox here with the most gears and better gear ratios for acceleration. It has a great torque and power curve, but the 296 has less drivetrain losses, has much more power, probably somewhere closer to 900hp, as it even walks the Mclaren 765lt despite weighing like 250+kg more. Ferrari have done a great job at calibrating the traction of that car, along with the cup 2R tires to get great traction despite being only RWD.

The sport mode roll race should be modified so that each car is in its own optimal powerband because the number of gears differs. It'll show the true potential of each car
As ever the times are down to road surface and weather conditions. The Ferrari and McLaren will do 9's in the same sort of conditions the Turbo S does 10.1.
Don’t let this distract you from the fact that Hector is going to be running three Honda civics with spoon engines, and on top of that, he just went into Harry’s and bought three t66 turbos with nos, and a motec exhaust system.
The engine in the Lambo will earn a place in automotive history as one of the all-time greats. Most definitely, awesome bit of kit. BTW I can remember Performantes doing 10.4 secs for the 1/4 mile here on carwow...
As ever the timings on the day are down to road condition and weather. All cars underperformed on the day by about the same margin. The Turbo S for instance has done 10.1's.

@@UchihaM23 turbo s is a tier below than those u will know that if u know cars the price gave it away, put in the gt 2 rs and it will be different story
In reference to Matt calling out the Ferrari's displacement, the "29" in the name 296GTB is a reference to the 2.9L engine and the 6 is for the 6 cylinders. Same naming scheme is used on other ferraris like the 458 and the 308, so you could argue that its a 2.9
There’s no way McLaren and Porsche are not lying about their numbers. Porsche is always conservative with their figures but that McLaren must be well over 800hp
I dont think they are tbh...its just that the McLaren gearbox is better. I've seen similar things with the 720s vs the 911 Gt2 Rs. When the McLaren puts in 4th it takes off.

Like always, I'm very amazed with the performance of the Porsche with just 650hp it never disappoints.
They lie about the power
Yeah, and so does McLaren. What is your point? It still has at least 150 less HP.
True, plus it is also the heaviest car in this comparison
@@australiamak2488no they dont, youtubers dyno it all the time
20-60k cheaper as well
Can we just appreciate how the Lambo still held up despite being 8 years old?
8 years💀 dam time flies fast
the perfomante is a newer model bro
The performante came out much later
Most importantly it is naturally aspirated
I'm sure a 20 year old bugatti veyron would hold up, or a decade old laferrari, or a decade old aventador, or a decade old huarya, or a 30 year old f1(on a roll), what im tryna say is that the date and time don't matter it's the wheels, power and weight
The sport mode roll race should be modified so that each car is in its own optimal powerband because the number of gears differs. It'll show the true potential of each car
Ferrari still the car to beat all round, even when the Mclaren got a good jump, the Ferrari was reeling it in
How about putting a drone cam overhead for the launches and a proper slow-mo cam on the finish line?
Oooo Matt, Yianni is going to have you for this one @24:42 Thank guys for another awesome comparison vid!
The 296 is incredible. Looks stunning. Sounds amazing for a v6
And that lunch being RWD. Incredibile absolutely perfect
@@tommasol9701 it leaves a good taste
That editing while googling 2.9L made me laugh so hsrd and sam "are you on the phone?" Love the little bloopers!
Nick talking about the stats on the Lamborghini and Mat has his radio turned off to see if he's right! Comical. 😆
This had to be one of the best carwow vids of all time. Nice to see even after so many years of great races
Lol that little Ferrari is something else, what a monster performance. Very quick!
As much as i like these drag races. Id love to see more car reviews like they used to do
Yep, striaght line speed only tells you so much in regards to the merits of a car.
Like racing them on an actual track?
I eagerly await the races compared to the reviews😆
Me too. Just basic cars. Nothing fancy.
Great ! 😍
And this "little" Ferrari is insanely fast ! The best car of the crew here.
I'm pretty sure the Porsche has done 10.2 secs on CARWOW. The race was awesome. These are the races subscribe for
Actually it did 10.01 in this channel.
As ever the times are down to road surface and weather conditions. The Ferrari and McLaren will do 9's in the same sort of conditions the Turbo S does 10.1.
The 296 has done 9.7 in other channels
Yeah i just said that as well,ita done 10.1 but usually averages 10.2
@oguzhanakkaya3843 fake numbers lol
We want McLaren 765lt vs Lamborghini Revulto vs Ferrari Sf90 vs Porsche 911 turbo s >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
True
This race is indeed one of the most exciting races that you ever did!
Don’t let this distract you from the fact that Hector is going to be running three Honda civics with spoon engines, and on top of that, he just went into Harry’s and bought three t66 turbos with nos, and a motec exhaust system.
Spoon Civic with engine swap to 600bhp can also beaten this 296GTB.
yawn. boring.
Gay movie 😂
The engine in the Lambo will earn a place in automotive history as one of the all-time greats. Most definitely, awesome bit of kit. BTW I can remember Performantes doing 10.4 secs for the 1/4 mile here on carwow...
Congrats to Audi to build this Engine and Gearbox.
Yes they definitely have done 10.4 before. Pretty sure a 720 has done below what the 750 did today though too
As ever the timings on the day are down to road condition and weather. All cars underperformed on the day by about the same margin. The Turbo S for instance has done 10.1's.
Exactly!!! That v10 giving it everything it has
The Turbo s has previously clocked 10.1s ... so what happened ? Are the tyres any good ?
"What will win in a drag race between.... "
"We were about to find out cuz Im gonna raced them over the standing quarter mile"
"Im Mat Watson, and you're watching CarWow"
Well that line is simply iconic.
@@purwantiallan5089 very iconic
@@TheRealFewriiyessir
As a Lamborghini fan boy I’ll have to give props to that Porsche, that car really is a rocket. I love how it can run such numbers and performance “all day everyday” as Yianni would say.
Porsche continues to do impressive things. The launch was amazing. Loved watching this.
This is one of the best drag race I have ever watched
Oh what a day, my god that 296 is fire damnit... The sound from that V10 is intoxicating 🔥🔥
It’s a V6!!!
That number plate on 911, used to be assigned to a red one...! Nice video as always and 911 turbo s is still so competitive!
It's one of their press-car numbers plates, it has been on a lot of cars over the years. I can imagine the press car turning up at some point in the dealership '1 woman owner, never launched' ha!
911HUL has been on Porsche UK press cars since the 80's
The new mics are doing justice on the sound tests... Perfection!!!
7:16 first race
12:52 second race
16:24 third race
Waiting for that kind of race pretty long. Great stuff👍
Nice line up..love the variation of engine displacements …
ICE cars❤…
Lambo sounds epic
Turbo s incredible as always. I can't wait to see the new hybrid
Last in two out of three rolling races
Third in the drag
Yes very incredible 🤷
@@UchihaM23just consider the opposition stats bro🥱
@@UchihaM23 if you had any brains you would have understood his comment.
Didn't they run a 9.8 in a previous race with a turbo?
@@UchihaM23 turbo s is a tier below than those u will know that if u know cars the price gave it away, put in the gt 2 rs and it will be different story
Best racing channel on UA-cam 💪🏾
In reference to Matt calling out the Ferrari's displacement, the "29" in the name 296GTB is a reference to the 2.9L engine and the 6 is for the 6 cylinders. Same naming scheme is used on other ferraris like the 458 and the 308, so you could argue that its a 2.9
This isn't always true. The 612 Scaglietti had a 5.7 litre V12 but the name indicated a 6 litre V12.
@@powerslider30477 Well, 5712 would be awkward. Or should they maybe have done 57 * 10 + 12 = 582 ?😄
The 308 gtb had a 2926.90cc V8, so it was a 2.9 litre V8 and the name should have been 298 gtb instead of 308 gtb.
That 296 is something innit
There’s no way McLaren and Porsche are not lying about their numbers. Porsche is always conservative with their figures but that McLaren must be well over 800hp
They always underestimate their engines, and porsche has the PDK that is highly efficient
Protip: it is indeed over 800hp.
Source: former 720s owner
@@karlwithak. nobody cares tbh
@@karlwithak.Porsche always underestimate their cars power. What are you yapping about bro be quite 😂
I dont think they are tbh...its just that the McLaren gearbox is better.
I've seen similar things with the 720s vs the 911 Gt2 Rs.
When the McLaren puts in 4th it takes off.
If you can reel in a 750s....you've got some serious power
Watching a Turbo S consistently launch is hypnotic
@@karlwithak. Dude, button down your English grammar and writing skills before hitting send. It makes you look incompetent.
Do you even know the definition of the word prestigious by the way?
@@karlwithak. Lol is used by 13 yr old girls dude
@@karlwithak. Now try to race on a track with your chally lmfao
@@karlwithak. And stating a plaid is prestigious is just out of the normal human comprehension
Carwow brings us the dream races early. Thanks for the early birthday present😃😃Having Yianni here would’ve been the icing on the cake
That turbo is really a sleeper in the supercar world
Lol, there is no one in this world who thinks turbo s is slow.
That number plate on 911, used to be assigned to a red one...! Nice video as always and 911 turbo s is still so competitive!
Not from roll
Would love to see a GTI generations race (only because GTI's are more or less affordable, and many of us drive them)! Include both VR6 models too, the 12v and the 24v. That would be one fun and interesting race!
This is what i subscribed for🔥🔥🔥
Keep these kind of races coming💥💥
@21:54 is like when 2 dogs meet down the park 😂
“ it’s going to be one of those days for me ”😂😂😂
My heart wants the Lambo ❤ , my mind says take the 911🤔 ,reality says take the bus 😔
Bus? You rich people! Bike it is!
😂😂
Was so excited to see a McLaren 750s for the first time and it didn’t disappoint. Love McLaren, definitely wanna see way more with this car, maybe 750s vs 765lt?
Can you do a drag race with the 488 Pista and 488 GTB? I think it would be interesting!
Literally laughing out loud at the sound check debacle.
Ferrari 296 is my pick of the bunch. What a beauty😍🔥
The sound of that V10 is just mind boggling
The engine is a masterpiece, should have made efforts to keep that engine in the upcoming Huracan successor.
Simply Audi V10. (Yes the V10 Is made by Audi in hungarian establishment)
the old 5.0 Gallardo V10 does sound much better (with custom X pipe exhaust).
ONE of the best and most relaiable engine ever made@@MV-yp8il
Too bad the replacement will not have that engine
Being at a disadvantage I’m super impressed with the Lamborghini! No turbos or electric assist. 😊
Love the editors Dr Evil clip!!
When you switch modes in the McLaren they really mean to give you the experience of that mode design
