I haven't been in one myself but I know that sometimes a car's handling is ruined due to it having a little more power than it should.

I can't imagine what doubling the power would do.

Anyway, I guess you guys know more than me on this subject.
You are right, trying to drive the car to the limit on anything but a straight road with 1000hp+ is going to be suicide and uncontrollable.

That's why there is the lower boost settings for everyday driving and track use. On pump fuel the 850whp setting drops to 650whp for even less craziness.

On the track is all about having a usable and predictable power band, you don't want sudden spikes which will send you off.

The high horsepower is really only for straight line use where handling is not so important as long as the power is being put down and you don't get sideways!

Edit: Also UGR currently has two Aventadors in their shop (white one and a grey one).[thumbup]
