The quickness of TT Gallardos.

Kevin and his team at UR do a terrific job building them. Although the conversions are quite costly, the engineering seems the best, bar none thus making these beasts kings at the Mile every year. There was a guy at C&C around here with a 1000hp setup and the thrust that thing made was absolutely unbelievable.

yeah, it usually runs about 100gs to TT that car. but well worth it. on race gas it can do up to 1500whp.

Nauman, I've actually been researching these TT Gallardo setups and it seems like they can handle about 14 lbs or so on the stock motor without having to re-build it (ie. pistons, rods, bolts, etc.). UGR really pushes the envelop and makes these things the quickest road cars around. Here is 14 lbs vs. a ZR1 that probably traps 140 mph +. The top end is unreal on these things....the flames are just a bonus

I want to ride in one sooo bad. I am going out to TX2k11 in Houston in March to see all these puppies run. My buddy has one of the highest HP and quickest time HR engine 350z's in the country. Wants to see what he can do. Not enough to keep up with these, but a 10.67 136 is a pretty damn fast 350z. I'll prolly just leave my stock GT-R at home LOL.

Steve, was that a heffner TT gallardo? didnt seem too fast. they only put down about 800 at the wheel or so.


Oh yeah, there will be about 10-12 TT Gs at 2k11 here. Most of these guys are prior record holding supra owners.

I like how you throw out the word "only" when describing 800whp LOL

No, its a Doug Levin build. They are based out of Florida and supposedly have a great rep as well. His TT 560's are really nasty.

If you get a ride in a TTG, there can only be two outcomes Bryan: either you get one or your car pays a visit to Jo Switzer

I might see you up there, I'm trying to hitch a ride with Chuck, a TX friend of mine that runs his GT2 up there every year.

Nice looking cars but:

1. Clean the shit off the lens before you make a video

2. Get that racing shit off the public freeways. Seriously. Fuck you for racing on a road a member of my family might be on.

I think this is the one time having AWD on a supercar makes sense, when two really sticky tires just can't hold traction it's not a bad thing. That said, Lamborghini still shouldn't be making supercars AWD, unless they start building them with a twin turbo setup.

I wouldn't care if that V12 in the Murcielago ran on baby seals, there isn't really anything cooler than that out there.

Why doesn't Lamborghini offer a tuned RS6 motor as an option? Packaging issues?

smart ass.

Nothing says Lamborghini more than the scissor doors, therefore I would prefer a LP640, but I wouldn't turn down a Gallardo at the right price.

^^^ I was wondering when you'd catch that! I agree with you about the scissor doors. Actually, my dream Lambo is the Reventon or really-the LP 670-4.

They did.


This is a local owner and it's an amazing piece of Diablo history.
