Audi and Lamborghini traffic accident

From the United States comes a video of the accident in which Audi and Lamborghini were involved. Although the video shows who is to blame for the car accident, believe it or not, the girl from Audi blamed the driver of the Lamborghini for the accident. As the footage shows, the driver of the Lamborghini stops at a red traffic light. At that moment, the driver of the Audi, while changing the lane, crashed into the back of a Lamborghini. Fortunately, no one was injured, and insurance will likely cover the damage on the Lamborghini.

Ironically, the Lamborghini Aventador bears the Beep license plate, referring to the car owner’s business. That’s Matt Heller, owner of HornBlasters, a company that makes powerful sirens and advertises itself as a solution for all small cars whose drivers want their voice heard as well.

All in all, enough to emphasize once again how important it is for a driver in traffic to be focused solely on driving. If a minor accident happens, try to react calmly. First help the injured, and only then do the rest.

Lamborghini LP 500 Countach

Lamborghini resurrected the original Countach. Celebrating half a century of the legendary car, the Santa’Agata Bolognese team unveiled a prototype Lamborghini LP 500 that debuted at the 1971 Geneva Motor Show and was destroyed in a crash test just three days later.

Lamborghini spent 25,000 hours making a prototype and fulfilling the wish of one collector. The collector made his first contact with Lamborghini in 2017 with the question of whether it is possible to revive the 1971 model. The challenge was accepted, and spare parts with used parts were used in the production. The body is painted in the original Giallo Fly Speciale color.

In order for the body to match the original, a 3D scan of the LP 400 prototype (chassis number 001) was required, and 2,000 hours of work were spent on finalizing the unmistakable Coutach lines.

Under the hood is a 3.9-liter V12 engine with 370 hp (276 kW) and 266 lb-ft (361 Nm) of torque, from the LP400. It reaches 62 mph in 5.4 seconds with a top speed of 179 mph (288 km / h). The original LP500 was powered by a 5.0-liter engine with 440 hp (328 kW) and 330 lb-ft (448 Nm) of torque, but was destroyed.

It is not known how much the production cost. Given that the new Countach model costs $ 2.64 million, we’re sure the prototype didn’t cost less than that.

Rayo: Made in collaboration with 7X Design and Envisage Group

The collaboration between Envisage Group and 7X Design resulted in the creation of a super powerful hyper car, the Rayo. The “wild beast” is based on the Lamborghini Huracan and has 1,900 hp.

The redesigned carbon fiber body is different from the standard Huracan. The elongated front end, larger air intakes, larger diffuser, new rear grille and lights are just some of the novelties used on this model.

Envisage CEO Tim Strafford said: “We’re delighted to have played such a key role in 7X Design’s remarkable Rayo. This car is an extremely exciting one-off creation and I am immensely proud of the work of our talented team, who are experts in taking a client’s design and then fully realizing that vision to the highest possible standards.”

The Lamborghini Rayo is powered by a 5.2-liter twin-turbo V10 engine with an impressive 1,900 hp (1,416 kW). That’s 1,290 hp more than the standard Lamborghini Huracan. Thanks to a super powerful engine and a redesigned body, the Rayo is able to reach a top speed of 300 mph (482 km / h).

It is not known what the upgrade price of this supercar was. We assume that it was not cheap, and that the owner had to pay a larger amount of money.
