The diablo ran a mid 13.6 while the camaro ran a 13.4

 

Did the 16 year-old bother to shift out of 2nd gear?

 

Thats all ya got? I was expecting at least a decent story... Are you sure it wasn't a Diablo kit car?

 

Lambos are not that fast . Trust me i know from experience

 

The older Diablos run low 13s, the newer ones are low 12s.

click and scroll down, a lot.

 

i am trying to post the video but my computer is acting gay!

 

Most of the exotics run lack-luster 1/4 times (compared to their hp ratings) due to the high/narrow powerbands (from the "small" displacements and high rpm to make those 500hp ratings) and tall gearing.

With that said... run him on top end and see what happens

Good kill

 

The lambo was built for two things(the highway and road course),its not much of a drag car.lol

 

those supercars run much faster than some of us on this board (including myself) tend to think. You can find any internet site that will claim 13 second times for a lamborghini. You will also find them claiming 11.6 seconds.

The thing that seems consistent is their 120mph+ trap speeds. If you put slicks and gears/rear end on a lambo, im sure the 1/4 will drop by up to a full second.

 

Not for the same year and model, though.

 

I've got a vid on my computer of a lambo murcialgo (sp?) loosing to either a t/a or a camaro. The lambo ran a low 13 in the 1/4 . They are top end cars, and I imagine most of their owners do not drive them to the max to achieve great times in the 1/4.

 

most of their owners simply do not know how to drag race. C & D gets good times out these cars. These cars beat the z06 in the 0-60, in under 4 seconds, so if they are not just "top end cars", but relatively speaking they perform at their best on the highway.

 

Aren't most Lambos AWD? With the engine out back? With huge tires? Traction can't be that much of a problem... At least not when you're comparing that to an f-body with lots of low end and skinny tires.

 

All the newer Lambo's (Diablo, Mucielago, Gallardo) run 120+ traps in the quarter. E.T.s, as we all know, is largely influenced by the driver. A *well driven* Lambo should be able to get well into the 11s bone stock.

In this case, you beat the driver of a Lambo, and for that you deserve congratulations.

 

Exactly. Anybody getting 13s out of a 120+ mph car, drives like sh**. A 120+ mph car should get low 12s to high 11s with a good driver.
