Whatever you’re into, Auto Italia is the event for you.\u00a0\u00a0 Track action will be taking place on the Mercedes-Benz World circuit and Test Hill which should provide some entertaining sights, both fast and slow.In the paddock there will be a few rather special cars exhibiting such as the AC 378 Zagato prototype (yes, not Italian but very closely associated with Brooklands) and the only Maserati Bellagio in the UK.Performance Direct will be showing the first modified Oakley Design Lamborghini Aventador. \u00a0Yes, Oakley Design consider the 217 mph, 0 – 62 in 2.9 seconds Aventador to be a little sluggish, so they’ve modified it to make it much faster.\u00a0 How fast it will go is yet to be seen but testing is due to start in the next couple of weeks.\u00a0 One thing’s for sure, it will certainly be a lot quicker than standard.\u00a0 For the full Oakley Design Aventador article click here.You too can experience the awesome power of the Aventador at Auto Italia.\u00a0 Performance
