Lamborghini Countach vs Ferrari 512 BB: Retro Supercar Shootout

Supercar shootouts are something we’re used to see all the time, but it’s been a while since we saw such a video starring two heroes of the 80s’. The adjacent clip brings a Raging Bull and a Prancing Horse in the same arena, all four out entertainment.
To be more precise, once you hit the “play” button, you see a Lamborghini Countach LP400 and a Ferrari 512 BB tackling the same track. The Lambo goes first, but the Ferrari manages to deal with the job quicker.

However, it’s obvious that the Boxer is being put through its paces, while the Countach isn’t driven at full throttle. If we add this to the fact that we have the first version of the Countach going up against the final-release 512 BB, the lap time difference between the two becomes understandable.
