Did you communicate your intent to race someone, or did you get them unawares? Because a Turbo S with 50 extra ponies would be pushing around 500HP, and the LP640 would, by definition have around 640HP, the Lambo weight is not so great as to negate 140HP, and therefore unless the driver of the LP is inept (and everyone looked to be far from inept), he should have been able to easily go by you if he knew you were racing.
If you do not like my video, ask Elim to show you his. He was in the LP640 that I raced several times with his video camera. My friend has a 2008 LP640 that I have racing over 30 times (and have the video) and I know the sound of this car at full tilt (I also have been in the car a full tilt). You will never see Elims video because he does not want you to see the results.

okay cool it guys... no more talk about racing who race who.. evryone raced lambo, subie, pcar fcar.. leave it at that...

if u guys keep on bring up the issue do it via pms if u guys keep on posting it on the thread ill give u guys temp ban...

its a run for godsakes people will race and drive fast if u think its a cruise it aint.. so if u drive slow stay in the back...
