The Lamborghini Huracan and the Dodge Demon could hardly be more different. After all, we're talking about the muscle king and an Italian exotic. Nevertheless, all the differences between the two velocity tools only make a battle between them spicier.
And we are now here to bring you a drag race involving a Mopar halo car and a Sant'Agata Bolognese machine. Sure, this fight took place on the muscle car's home turf, but this doesn't take away any of the spectacle delivered by the stunt.
As far as we know, these machines come in factory stock form. For the Huracan, this means the machine sends 610 horses to all four wheels. When it comes to the Demon, this example packs the Demon crate goodies, which means it comes with skinny front tires and 840 ponies (when sipping race gas).
The two fortunately got together at the drag strip, which means they kept things on the safe side, while also enjoying the prepped surface of the track. Of course, the latter benefit tipped the balanced towards the Demon.
Of course, the elements linking the pedals to the steering wheel are crucial and we're talking about the reaction time here. Of course, playing the Christmas Tree game well means winning the race as fas as the eyes as concerned.
Then again, the actual winner of the race comes from the figures delivered at the end of the run. And while we mentioned this, we also have to tell you that, despite the numbers missing from this clip, it looks like one of the cars grabbed a definitive win.
Speaking of performance figures, we'll remind you that the best quarter-mile time recorded by the Huracan so far sits at 10.4 seconds. As for the Dodge Demon, the carmaker claims the beast can complete the said task in 9.65 seconds.
However, the best run to date sits at 9.9s - we recently showed you a 9.83s run, but that involved non-stock tires.
P.S.: You can skip the YouTube details and head straight for the racing action if you head over to the 2:10 point of the video.
