12.3 @ 113 in the ugliest Mustang ive seen in a long time, and you want to race a lambo? :bash:


Everyone has their own opinions on what looks good... I think his Mustang looks great. Was it necessary for you to call his ugly?

That was not the outcome that I was expecting. However If I am going to run for $200 It will definatly be from a dig!

That is definately a stock Gallardo. You can actually rent it while in New York. They use it as a rental.

Its a Video on the internet, take it for what its worth. But a very nice showing of two cars. Thou I was asume a Lambo would win just cause of the weight difference alone.

for everyone looking for a shot at the stock lambo if you live near NYC i can arrange it, but if you come with more car then 500 rwhp be ready to race someone else your own size :)

I am one to think the Lambo is underated just like the Cobra. 495-500 to the wheels; much much lighter than the Lambo as well.

I can see it.

He might as well tossed $200 on the ground...What was he thinking...He's +1000lbs, plus a extra passenger...He got setup to fail.

Anyone around Tampa want to run a "stock" Diablo 6.0

There are a couple VERY fast Cobras round here making 800 RWHP, for them, i'll bring out the ZR-1, but if someone with a Cobra making 600-700 RWHP fancies a go, drop me a line. I'm more than willing.

If it was a quarter mile race from a dig it would have probably been closer. Italian cars tend to be geared more for mid range and top end speed. just my 2 cents. That was a bad ass lambo

Just ask Car & Driver what happens when you try to launch a Gallardo. :lol:

p.s. C&D says Gallardo (with an anemic clutch) > Ford GT (with flawless clutch)

EDIT: C&D quote: "Acceleration testing brings out the worst of the system and resulted in the death of the clutch..." WTF! This is acceptable and worthy of 2nd place in testing?

Now look at the price tags, I would say that it is very impressive that ford can hang with a car like that for the price.

According to the video.........Ford didnt hang with that car............but for a whole lot less than the exotic it would be as fast with the right goodies on it!
