lamborghini gallardo!!!!!

my camaro ss pulled DEAD EVEN!!!!!!!!!! WITH A LAMBORGHINI GALLARDO FRIDAY NIGHT!!!!!!!! it was so sick we were weaving in between cars at like 110 plus!!! finally we got up right next together and i downshifted into 3rd at like 75+ and into fourth and into fifth up to 145 and we stayed dead even!!!!!!!!!!! IT WAS THE COOLEST THING I HAVE EVER DONE!!!!!!! blue flames came out of his exhaust when i was behind him to get around cars! wow it was SO AWESOME!!

i just thought id tell you guys because you all have faster cars than me, and i just thought you would like to know you could take a 200,000 dollar LAMBORGHINI!!!

Re: lamborghini gallardo!!!!!

What year Lambo? Now, are you sure he/she was racing? If all you have is exhaust, there is no way you hung with him. I raced a Lambo and it raped me , and I know she was racing because I couldn't hear my car over the sweet sound of the Lambos exhaust, and my car is also loud. Yes, it was a girl driving it, and she was kind of cute. When I pulled up next to her she made this expression like, "Oh, I didn't know it could do that". Anyway he wasn't racing, he was just playing with you.

Gallardo? It's either an '05 or an '06, and they're identical, so I'm not sure the year really matters.

I think he might have been playing with you too... those have like 500hp at all four wheels.

Re: lamborghini gallardo!!!!!

Gallardos first model year was '04 and the other guys are right, he wasnt racing. Having driven one I can see how it could be beaten from stoplight to stoplight (nothing down low). Once they reach about 3500 to 4000 RPM they pull like a jet! One of the local guys worked one with his 408 '04 GTO, but he was putting down 470ish RWHP. The guy in the Lambo was just playing.

Re: lamborghini gallardo!!!!!

Next time the Lambo driver will have to actually push the gas pedal past the 1/2 way mark!

Re: lamborghini gallardo!!!!!

Yeah, not only are they ~500HP, they weigh around 3150 lbs. So you're looking at about the same HP/weight ratio as a 2006 Z06, except the Z06 has a wider powerband and a bunch more torque.

Still, if he was racing and his car was running right, he would have been gone. BTW, top speed is listed at about 190+ MPH.

Re: lamborghini gallardo!!!!!

Good race. Anthing can happen on the street. I'm willing to bet the person in the Lambo couldn't drive.

It's AWD. Even if he sucks at shifting, once he's in gear and rolling, it's just a matter of mashing the pedal and hanging on to the wheel.

He was either in the wrong gear (possibly on purpose), or he didn't have it floored.

Re: lamborghini gallardo!!!!!

ya it was more like 90ish it wasnt really 110 because i wasn't watching my speedo my friend was and he said it wasnt that fast but we really did hit 140 in a straight line w/ no cars around it was so awesome! ok well if he was just playing with me why wouldn't he have at least dusted me once, just to show it off??? I mean maybe to play with me ok, but eventually he should have "opened it up" dont cha think?

Re: lamborghini gallardo!!!!!

Dude......even at 90 it's not cool to weave in between cars. Good way to kill someone.
