Tiff Needell of the TV motoring show 5th Gear (DSTV 250) is regarded as one of the best drivers in motor journalism. Actually some think of him as a driving demigod. In this video he tames one hell of a raging Italian bull, the Lamborghini LP560-4. In snow and ice!
The Lamborghini LP560-4 was first unveiled at the 2008 Geneva Motor Show. It’s powered by a 5.2-litre V10 engine with 410kW and 540Nm of torque. Audi (owner of Lamborghini) actually borrowed the same engine for its upcoming Audi R8 V10. They say the LP560-4 can dash from 0 – 100km/h in just 3.7 seconds and top off at 325km/h.
I therefore imagine it to be quite a handful on dry tar but on ice? Can’t imagine that! Watch Tiff powerslide the car with traction control off. My apologies if your internet connection is too slow, but the 5 minute video is really worth the wait. Click HERE.
