I dont know what the outcome would have been if we hit it at the same time but I think it would be pretty much dead even. The car sounds awesome though. We have some vids but they are from a trail car that sometimes got caught up behind us and with a digital camera recording. I'll get them up in the next few days.

Nice job.

Kind of funny that some people recently posted that it would take a stage 3 TT like yours to run with a stock Gallardo.

Nice run Heavy!

I like the Vette as well, looks very well set-up:
How is it's traction? My buddy has a Vortech on a Viper and claims
he cannot get traction (my translation is that I will beat him!! LOL)

Sounds like Mr. D needs to sell the Murci and go see Mr. Orton

The vette's boost comes in very gradually (i.e. lag) then all hell breaks loose, but it makes it fun to drive on the street, I can either have a very loud stock feel or slip and slide around at 90+ good time. I tried going to the strip with street tires and it was bad. My best 60' ever in that car was 2.08 spun first second and third to trap 132, I'm tempted to put some DR's on so I can actually use first gear, my last time out I ran my best time and trapped 132 launching in second gear, traction was that bad.

Orton says I'm 550 but the Power/ weight doesnt permit the speeds I'm doing in traps and such so yeah I'm around 600 flywheel I still think the car can trap 126 or 127 in ideal conditions if I drove it right. I'm arguably a tad bit slower (to be determined, 1 mph in 1/4 mile) than a 500 rwhp Z06 so he's roughly 580 hp and weighs less than 3200 lbs w/ driver, my car is 3350 with 1/4 tank (3400 full) and over 3600 with me in the car, so I have to have more power than he does to even be i nthe same ballpark.

I really dont want to sell it but the wheel to wheel racing is calling my name and I dont have enough garage space for another "race" car.

Funny thing is that the same person traded his Gallardo in for the LP640 and that gallardo got spanked hard by a M6 with only ECU upgrade (member jenk12m) so he bought a M6 too . I told him to try the Turbo first because the Vette walks the turbo like nothing. We headed out the other day to race the Turbo against his F430 but there was a deadly accident on the highway by our house and traffic was a beast so we postponed that one and I got to run the Lambo instead. I was riding the rev limiter several times because I couldnt even hear my motor over that awesome sounding motor.
