The pop up spoiler no longer spoils this car and has been written out of the electronics and replaced by a fixed wing with manual adjustments.\u00a0 Intrax, the suspension partner of Oakley Design, have re-engineered the suspension to keep the car handling as you would want and an ECU remap pushes 760 HP from the engine.\u00a0 Oakley Design have even decided to rename the car from the LP 700-4 (700 HP & 4WD) into the LP 760-2 (760 HP & 2WD).\u00a0 Personally I think it’s a car worthy of a rename.For more information on this phenomenal supercar see our recent articles here:Click here for 230mph Dyno Speed Test.Click here for the full article on the Lamborghini Aventador Modified by Oakley Design."},{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Latest News","item":"https:\/\/smart-motoring.com\/latest-news\/#breadcrumbitem"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Lamborghini Aventador modified by Oakley Design – Photoshoot and Track Test","item":"https:\/\/smart-motoring.com\/latest-news\/lamborghini-aventador-modified-by-oakley-design-photoshoot-and-track-test\/#breadcrumbitem"}]}]
