The Ghedi military airport in Brescia, Italy was chosen by Lamborghini to stage a mind blowing acceleration race between a Tornado jet aircraft (A200-A) provided by the airbase, and the Reventón, Lambo’s ultra limited supercar who’s design was inspired by the very latest aeronautics. The event was made to present the Lamborghini super car to international TV networks. -Continued after the jump The fighter pilot and the Lamborghini test driver challenged each other on a 3km-long (approx 1.9 miles) runway. Although the 650 Hp strong Reventon managed to take the lead in the first leg of the race, the Tornado caught up in the last few feet, taking off and flying over Lamborghini’s $1.5 million supercar that was going at a speed of over 340 km/h -212 mph.
