Underground Racing F430 with HRE's
Hi All,
Just thought I would share a really cool post that's up on our blog right now featuring Underground Racing's 1000hp F430. There is a video with the car racing a Gallardo Superleggera that gives you a great idea of how fast this car really is. Hope you enjoy it!

I'm just curious what these cars will do as far as acceleration in the aurter mile, etc. I did more than a bit of street and challenge track racing over the years and learned to stick with American V8s -- did well with supercharged GM LSx V8s in particular: won a lot more than I lost over the years and had a lot of fun for nearly four decades.
Even four years ago, when I finally tired of it and sold the cars, etc., it took 1200 RWHP on SCr and NOS, or more, in something like a 'vette or a viper, with low nines or high eights in the quarter (in a streetable if not comfrotable car) to really be unbeatable. Some of those cars where pretty good in on a road course, too -- not optimized for it, maybe, but when you have that much power you just sort of point and shoot, so to speak - brutal but it worked well, and challenge races were either short street races deciding it a matter of seconds, quarter mile affairs at the track that weren't much longer, or the serious straight line standing start mile, where all the mattered was sheer power -- and frankly 1000 Hp was not competitive. I assume these cars are more civilized and comofortable and dependable. Just curious what they do in the SS mile, etc. |

Lot's of people think putting big wheels on a Ferrari is wrong.
Poppy ****! Any and every car looks better with the right set of wheels. This one looks pretty darn good. Bravo! |
