00:00G'day, I'm Paul. This is a Lamborghini Revoluto. That is a McLaren 765LT. So if you don't know,
00:26this is the replacement for the Aventador. This has naturally aspirated V12, but three electric
00:31motors, two on the front axle, one at the rear. It is a certified beast, and now it has a dual clutch
00:36transmission as well. Alborz 765LT, bit of an old car, but that thing was incredibly fast the last
00:41time we were here drag racing. It was, mate. It was actually cooking in the centre, if you remember.
00:45So I have high hopes, but I'm also slightly terrified at that Revoluto, because it has been
00:49pretty quick. I don't know. Let's see. I'm quietly confident, at least in the Royal Race, but let's
00:53see what happens. Well, rear-wheel drive for you, all-wheel drive for me. You've got a twin-turbo
00:57V8, so it's going to be close. It is, and that car is super warm, and this car is not super warm,
01:03as usual, because that's how Maric likes to run these things. So let's just see how I go.
01:07Big shout-out to a mate, Lawrence, who has been a legend and given us access to any of his cars to
01:13do this stuff, and it is genuinely unreal. As a reminder, this is an unprepped surface,
01:18so you are not going to see the times that you see with these cars at drag strips. It is going to
01:23be much slower, because there is very little traction here, but unfortunately, it's all we
01:26have access to. Okie dokie. Megan, count us in. Here we go.
01:31Launching on go.
01:33Three, two, one, go!
01:36No, no traction at all. Oh, the destruction!
01:58Destruction!
01:59Oh!
02:00Oh!
02:01Man, that thing is quick, hey? It's got so much traction. I fear that was a traction issue
02:21more than anything, because once you were moving, I just kept looking in my mirror, and
02:26I'm like, oh, he is getting closer and closer and closer. Man, if I could just get this thing
02:32to start moving, you have no hope in hell at all. Let's do one more launch, because I
02:36know that last time we tested that car, it took sort of three or four runs before the tyres
02:40were warm enough for it to actually get a clean launch. So we'll give that one more crack,
02:44and let's see how we go. Launching on go. Three, two, one, go!
02:56Oh, the launch! Oh, come on! Come on! No traction! It's unbelievable!
03:11Off the start line! What can I say?
03:38Um, traction champ? Mate, I don't know what that car is doing, but it seems to have absolutely
03:43no issues gripping up every time, first time, and going, but this car, on the other hand,
03:49is definitely struggling. So, one more time, man. One more time.
03:53Alright, I'll let you have one more shot.
03:55Launching on go. Three, two, one, go!
04:00Come on! Come on! Come on! Come on! Why are you always losing traction? Ah!
04:19He had better traction then. He had much better traction then. Here he comes.
04:29God damn it! What could possibly be the excuse now? Go on.
04:46I don't know. I just, I just don't know. I want to win something!
04:50The way that car launches, I don't really know what car you need to be able to beat it,
04:56because it gets such an advantage off the line, that by the time you catch up to it, it's too late.
05:00So, my spidey sensors are telling me you're probably going to win the next thing, which is the rolling race,
05:05because just the way that that thing is improving, as more heat gets in the tyres,
05:09tells me that the rolling race may be where this ends for the Lambo.
05:14Now, rolling race time, we're going to go up to 30km an hour.
05:16The second we get to that first white line, it is going to be on for young and old.
05:20So, I'm in manual first gear. Al Boers, he's going to be in manual as well, and we'll see what happens.
05:25Alright, let's go.
05:30Come on, baby! Come on, baby! Come on, catch up!
05:49Catch up! Come on!
05:54Come on, come on, come on, come on!
05:56Come on, yes, yes, yes!
06:08Yes! Oh, come on!
06:10How is that thing so quick? I just don't understand.
06:13Alright, you know what? I'm going to go full manual. I'm going to go full manual.
06:17Oh, man, that is so good.
06:20What happened there, bud?
06:22Is this the 765 we had last time? Because I feel like this is a 650.
06:26Can I tell you, there is only one difference between this time and last time.
06:31Do you want to know what that is?
06:33It is me. I was driving that car.
06:36So, people always bitch about you, mainly, on YouTube.
06:40Should we swap cars?
06:41You know what? Why don't we swap cars?
06:43But now that this thing is so warm, I feel like you finally...
06:46You know what? Let's not swap cars.
06:48I'm going to stay in this and I'm going to beat you in the last roller race.
06:51Alright? It's going to be full manual and it's going to happen.
06:53Okay, here we go.
06:58Alright, watch him cheat somehow now.
07:00Alright, it's 30.
07:02Ready, set, go.
07:15Come on! Come on!
07:17Come on, go faster!
07:19Go faster!
07:23Go, go, go! Oh no, oh no!
07:26Go, go, go, go, go, go!
07:29Come on, please!
07:30No!
07:38Yes!
07:39No!
07:40Why?
07:41Why?
07:42Well, that about settles that.
07:44I am so annoyed.
07:46I am so annoyed.
07:47What is for dinner tonight?
07:49I'm skipping ahead here to future plans.
07:51Anyway, now I'm going to be quiet so we can do a quarter-mile run in each of these
07:57and you can see exactly how quick they are and exactly what they sound like.
08:00Ghurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
08:06Oh
08:36There we go. That was interesting. I was genuinely expecting that to end, but this is a very quick
09:01car. We have a stack of other Drag Race videos that are either live or going to be live very soon,
09:06so make sure you head to the channel. We've got a playlist set up for them all, so keep an eye out
09:11for those. If you did enjoy the video, please make sure you like it and share it with your mates,
09:15and a massive shout out again to the legends here at Wildcatchem for having us, but until next time,
09:19take it easy.
