Maybe........ 740HP but nearly 4000 pounds (the SV is 110 pounds lighter than the standard Aventador that weighs in at 4080)
The highest speed I saw in the video is 145 so it is not as if the the new ACR's 177 top speed is going to kill the car's chances in the long straight at the end.
Big question is going to be driver ability?.......... the one in this video is IMO as hot as they come. (probably a ringer)
Here is what C& D quoted Lambo about the downforce and aero
Looking like an Aventador that’s been hanging out in its Uncle Veneno’s garage, the Superveloce features a suite of wild body mods, including new doors, rocker panels, and fenders, as well as modified scoops and a massive, manually adjustable rear wing mounted on two giant struts. Most of these were rendered in carbon fiber, helping reduce overall weight by 110 pounds according to Lambo. The last Aventador we tested tipped the scales at a hefty 4085 pounds, but 110 fewer pounds isn’t insignificant when shaving tenths from acceleration times—especially when zero-to-60-mph times hover near the all-important three-second mark.
Lambo says its aerodynamicists strove to improve both downforce and aerodynamic efficiency without increasing drag. Great success: Downforce is indeed up by a claimed 170 percent, and aero efficiency has been increased by 150 percent. The fact that the SV looks like something from the postapocalyptic Thunderdome is a happy coincidence.

Prob, unless the much lighter and much higher downforce ACR could make up for it in all the cornering. I doubt it can run sub 7min though. Anyone know the top speed the gen IV ACR hit down the last straight of the Ring? I watched the video but mph and rpm's aren't shown.
Props to Lamborghini though,very impressive.
