By now, anybody who was curious about the driving experience delivered by the Lamborghini Aventador S has received more than enough details. However, there's one particular question regarding the mid-cycle revamp of the V12 supercar - how will the Raging Bull handle a drifting session on the beach?
Sure, the question seems a bit too specific compared to the ones we're used to, but nothing is too special when it comes to Instagram. And we obviously have an answer for this question, one that recently showed up on the said social network.

We're talking about a piece of footage that shows the Sant'Agata Bolognese machine playing the sideways game on the sandy surface.

This kind of pedal abuse will split opinions like few other practices in the go-fast field, but we have to mention that the driver seems to have refrained from fully mashing the pedal on the right. And it's enough to check out the amount of sand thrown into the air to figure that out.

Nobody on the beach seemed to mind the Aventador S doing the... crop circle thing, so the driver of the Italian exotic could carry on for more than just a simple spin.

So, how does the S particle make a difference when it comes to this piece of beach drifting? Well, for one thing, the refresh has allowed the Aventador S to borrow the rear-wheel steer system that debuted on the Aventador Superveloce. And, at the kind of moderate velocity values used here, the rear wheels steer in the opposite direction to the front ones.

Then there's the upgraded naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12. The heart of the Lamborgini Aventador S has not only jumped 40 horses to 740 hp, but also has a new exhaust system. And the adventure we're discussing will allow you to get a respectable sample of the Lambo's voice.
