    Amateur hour 'Cash Race' between VF-Engineering supercharged Huracan and a stock McLaren 720S

    You probably know this Huracan already as the owner went through his Dime Racing horror story and VF-Engineering ended up sorting out the car and supercharging it. Now, you already know the McLaren 720S is a beast in stock form.

    The Huracan owner meets up with a 720S owner and basically there is a lot of annoying talking before and after they botch run after run. Just run the damn cars. Nobody wants to waste twelve minutes on worthless chatter.

    They line the cars up from a stop and the Huracan gets a lead on the rear wheel drive 720S before quickly getting off the gas. This certainly makes sense as the Huracan is all wheel drive and the TVS blower provides instant torque. With how quickly the Huracan gets off the gas we do not see much of a race.

    They go from a roll next and the 720S jumps slightly but then gets off the gas only for the Huracan to get on the gas. Is this the first time these guys have ever raced a car before?

    They try again and the 720S looks to be in the wrong gear or getting on the gas late. Just do three honks and go people. Also, you have GoPro mounts. WTF are you holding a camera for while racing?

    This is garbage. They run on busy city streets and the Huracan gets off the gas early once the 720S actually gets going. There is no real performance comparison and where is the supposed data that was going to be recorded?

    If you seriously think your Huracan is faster do a real highway roll instead of putting out misleading crap like this.

    Fail.

    I'm starting to really dislike this guy.

    I'm not a hater about the Huracan but when you put out misleading performance videos that pisses me off.

    Not even wasting my time or giving them the click after seeing the still frame.

    How much do you want to bet that no money actually changed hands after these races?

    It was sent to me and I thought I'd provide my point of view.

    Can't wait until you get your new RS! You will crush just about anyone that lines up next to you.

    Haha, thanks. I'm on the list, but I am not expecting to hear the phone ringing to let me know I'm getting an allocation.

    The only reason I want this annoying kid to keep making videos is because he will crash in one someday and I need to see that. It’s just a matter of time.

    Oh let's not be like that.

    Wouldn't it be more satisfying to see someone put him in his place?

    People give Ferrari & Porsche $#@! for deciding who gets to own their special cars...when you see who's buying the "low end" stuff these days, do you really think that's a bad idea?

    Looks quite a bit like he's jumping the gun in these videos - no doubt this Huracan is quicker, but this is a $#@! video.

    Shouldn't these be around 800 hp? If not then maybe it's not quicker, the AWD for sure helps at least. Looks like the 720S is more like an 800S based on trap speeds, maybe more.

    The 720S dyno's almost 700 whp so definitely more like 800S or more like 820S.

    Regardless, the trap speeds I've seen from supercharged Huracans are around 141-142 so I don't see the 720S having any trouble with it.

    I $#@!ING HATE THIS PARKER VEHICLE VIRGINS $#@!...

    I hope his Huracan blows up and he dies in a fire. He is seriously the most annoying youtube douchebag out there. I will not give him a click so thanks for at least describing the massive fail in the article.

    This pig-nosed kid knows nothing about cars, can't drive for $#@!, and says the stupidest most pretentious things ever.
