Lamborghini Race Car Teased For The Last Time Ahead Of Goodwood Debut

The 2023 Goodwood Festival of Speed is set to feature numerous vehicle debuts, most of which involve production vehicles. However, Lamborghini will be unveiling a new race car that will not be available for purchase. This car is specifically designed to compete in the Hypercar and GTP classes of the FIA World Endurance Championship and IMSA. Although it won’t have the flamboyant design and scissor doors commonly associated with Lamborghini, the latest teaser reveals that it will feature large wings and numerous vents.

 

The powertrain details of the car have not been released yet, but it will feature a twin-turbocharged V8 engine with hybrid assistance, according to previous reports. This will be Lamborghini Squadra Corse’s first race-specific engine, with a maximum output limited to 671 horsepower due to regulations. However, considering the high power outputs commonly seen in production supercars, reaching this goal should not be a problem for this dedicated race car.

Due to category rules, the car’s exterior design will be constrained, and it will have to use a specific chassis supplier. However, the teaser hints at some customization options, as shades of green are visible. The tail fin also bears the name “Iron Lynx,” which is a racing team already involved in IMSA and the GT World Challenge Europe with the Lamborghini Huracan GT3 Evo 2.

It is still unclear whether the car will only be displayed statically or have the opportunity to run up the famous Goodwood hill. However, Lamborghini will have other vehicles on display at the event, including several models from the Lamborghini lineup and the Eccentrica Lamborghini Diablo restomod, which features updated bodywork and a modernized interior based on the classic 1990s supercar.
