I&#8217;m not sure Tim actually bought one of these, but he did manage to get behind the steering wheel of this ultimate Pagani, let&#8217;s hear what he had to say about it before we take a look at his video below:<\/p>\n<p><em>THIS is the Pagani Huayra R! Never in my life did I think I might have the opportunity to drive a new Pagani Huayra R flat out at one of my favorite tracks in the world, Spa-Francorchamps! Welcome to Arte in Pista, and an experience straight out of my dreams.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The Pagani Huayra R is limited to just 30 cars, following on from the hugely exciting Zonda R, and marks the introduction of the Arte in Pista program for customers to drive their R models on track together in spectacular company. Bringing a whole lifestyle experience to the table, today is my opportunity to participate in the festivities at the circuit which hosts the Belgium F1 Grand Prix.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>For the Huayra R, the V12 R powerplant comes in the form of a newly developed 6.0l NA V12 that makes 850hp and 750Nm, while screaming up to 9,000rpm, continuing the partnership between Pagani and AMG. Combine that with a 6spd sequential gearbox driving power to the rear wheels, a curb weight of only 1,050kg, and 1,000kg of downforce at 199mph (320km\/h) and you have a very, very capable track hypercar.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Very few words can truly describe the experience of driving this car, from the sensation and emotion at the wheel to the immense spine-tingling feeling of the engine mounted rigidly behind you. Thank you to the team at Pagani for this amazing opportunity! Thanks for watching, Tim<\/em><\/p>\n<p><iframe class=\"zeen-lazy-load-base zeen-lazy-load\" title=\"PAGANI HUAYRA R UNLEASHED!
