Street Racing & Kill Stories - TT Gallardo vs. Modded IROC Camaro...**Video**

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_jqMIw6KX4

I went form having a 3/4 car lead to virtually being dead nuts even when we shut down. I can't compete with that TH400 automatic trans regardless of how fast I shift. I need that trans in my Gallardo. Hehe.

Great race, Demetri!!..

:cool:

Holy moly that Iroc Moves.

Great run Fadi I see you raised the boost a little???

and LOOL TH400 in Gallardo

That is a really sick third gen!
Any details on it?

nice race. more details on the iroc, please

did the IROC shut down early or did it run out of gear? I was surprised to see how well he kept up after watching the iroc vs zr1 race and then your race w/ the zr1. also was the iroc spraying 200 in the race vs the zr1? for you guys wondering about the iroc its an sbc2.2, check out the thread w/ its race against the zr1 for more details http://www.ls1tech.com/forums/street-racing-kill-stories/1152255-86-iroc-z-vz-09-zr1.html
awesome vid & run fadi! how about a 3wide race;) how long till that zr1 is back in action?

edit: wtf double post ^^

Damn Fadi I missed it. Spent most of the afternoon doing car maintenance for a few bucks. (Oil/filter chg, trans fluid/filter, air filter, plugs/wires, front brakes) Kind of sucks working on a ford taurus. Oh well, I'm glad you guys got a chance to get out again and set the asphalt on fire !!

IROC ran out of gear. He tunred up his limiter and we were going to re-race so we can go just a tad faster to see what happens but it started to rain.

When he raced the ZR1, he was on motor only and no spray. But in our race, he was on spray.

Holy moly that Iroc Moves.

Great run Fadi I see you raised the boost a little???

and LOOL TH400 in Gallardo

Thanks man. Yes, I raised the boost about 2 lbs. Man, I am playing with some major fire, LOL. 11:1 CR with 12 lbs. of boost..:judge:

that was a badass race.. must have been hilarious to see a 3rd gen keeping up with a lambo in any form.

Cant believe how sick is that Camaro to hold on with your Gallardo!! Sick vids!

that was a badass race.. must have been hilarious to see a 3rd gen keeping up with a lambo in any form.

especially a TT one

Thanks all.

Ya, that IROC is sick!! But, power is power and that car is making LOTS of power. 600 rwhp ON MOTOR + 200 shot = :hail:

That was cool, thanks for posting that.

That was cool. (and that is one of the reasons I have an auto also)

Look at it this way, if you blow the motor its a good time to build a nasty new one;)

Fadi have you checked out some local airports to try for daytime races on a runway?

Good racing

What's the protocol to go about renting an airport?? Anyone know? I mean, what do I do just call the airport and say.."Hey, shut down all the airlines for a day so I can race on your runway"..?? LOL

thats a start:cool:

I would like to be there if you rent that airport :P

iroc is sick and so is your lambo dude, how much power does it make? that iroc is a nascar type motor or something right?

wow..very impressive iroc....to me it looked like he started a 1/4 second behind you off the 3 beep and then still managed to close the gap and then looked like he put a 1/4 car on you before shut down...

Im saying a win for the IROC...

Id love to see the grin on anyones face tieing/beating a ttG..

wheres the vid of him and the zr1...would love to see it

Sick IROC, put a T-56 in that thing and say taillights to the Lambo. How much does the Lambo make btw?

Put a wing on my Lambo and it may fly..

Made 700 rwhp on 10 lbs.

wow..very impressive iroc....to me it looked like he started a 1/4 second behind you off the 3 beep and then still managed to close the gap and then looked like he put a 1/4 car on you before shut down...



Ya, it does seem that way. But we were actually even when we shut down. When I shifted into 5th, what he made up was the lead I had on him up to that point and he got directly next to me. When I got back into boost, he stayed directly next to me until he ran out of gear and shut down.

But hell, what do I know, I was looking at the road trying to dodge deers jumping out in front of me..

Geez, that's how fast I hope for my car to be one day. Love to see the faces of some SRT10 Vipers and such.

Love to see the faces of some SRT10 Vipers and such.

Your hope might come true next weekend..;)

I am supposed to be running some Venom Viper. We will see if the guy shows up. As always, it will be caught on tape. I am also hoping for that ZR1to be finished this week so we can also get a re-run in the weekend. Lastly, I will more than likely get another run in with the IROC so we can get a clear cut winner.

In the meantime, I am getting a TH400 trans in my car..LOL (kidding)

First thing first: Fadi, you're one seriously cool dude, Lambo owner or not you come off as a good guy. That lambo of yours is seriously fast! You having any problems with the transmission or IRS handling all that power? What do there full race Gallardo's make horsepower-wise? I would be paranoid pushing something like that to its limits like you are! You're gonna add "Just one more psi..." and the whole carbon fiber body is going to go POOF! into a pile of carbon fiber strands! lol j/k

not too difficult. Find a small regional airport: one that has a fire department or at least ambulance/paramedics onsite: talk to the field operations officer/manager about possible ways n days you could make it work after or before there normal operations- that way the guys needed can just come in early or stay late.

Some things to keep in mind: If the airfield follows protocol (the more remote and smaller of an airfield, the less chance they will be so strict) they will need two main things before the insurance requirements would be met: Paramedics with accident gear (jaws of life, etc. that fireman normally carry) or Fire Department rig. If the airfield has a tower, a air traffic controller to make sure no planes attempt to land on your heads. Figure if you cant get them to stay and work an extra hour after there normal hours, you will be on the hook for at least $500 for them, and another $250+ (cash) to rent the field. Yes cash, and dont expect a reciept has been my experience.

Get a group of 4-6 cars together to split the costs so that they are all vested in the process. There will be alot of things to do: a wait period after last plane lands to ensure airspace and aproach pattern is clear and landing lights off. A FOD walkdown will be needed afterwards (Foreign Object Debris= FOD. Looking for anything that could be injested into a jet engine or hit a prop and damage it like screws n bolts and chunks of tire rubber. Give yourself 30minutes minimum for that.). Multiple runs will be required to both find your braking markers to slow down at, and to find any bad sections of tarmac before you are at 170+mph. You will be suprised how bumpy and uneven most old runways are. "Grin and bear it" comes to mind as you're bouncing along. The braking markers truly are the biggest deal though. Never yet seen a runway where you could actually see where it ended: usually the road just kinda dissapears shockingly fast into what is normally thin air from the raised embankment of the runway. Scary when you are full brakes already and cut it close. DONT cut it close!

Sick IROC, put a T-56 in that thing and say taillights to the Lambo. How much does the Lambo make btw?
You're somehow under the impression a T-56 is going to #1- handle that power, or #2- be faster than a race kitted auto trans? Not at those power levels.

Thanks for all that, bro. Appreciate it.

No problem. I've been lucky, friends and coworkers had the hookup with the airfield guys and it was usually free. Getting the fire department guys to stay is usually easy: they want to watch the runs themselves! For that matter, put a camera and walky-talky into there hands and they can be your finish line spotters. Air traffic controller is not strictly required by the FAA: a runway with its lights in "closed runway" mode is off limits for planes anyways. Normally the runway lights go red in a (from the air) giant X marking it as closed.

One more thing to push you into doing the field rental thing <wink wink>: I have been a part of, or known guys that did, rent airfields at these locations: Memphis, TN., Orlando, FL., Whidbey Island, WA., El Toro, CA., Orange County, CA., Lemoore, CA. It wasnt just one odd ball airport that slipped the rules! Caveat: last time was a year ago and took some searching to find one willing to rent (outside of El Toro marine base in southern Cali, rented by some guys I know who make racing videos)

You're somehow under the impression a T-56 is going to #1- handle that power, or #2- be faster than a race kitted auto trans? Not at those power levels.

Yeah thats right because T56 cant hold 800whp:eyes:
And Im sure an TH400 is faster on the highway than a 6-speed:eyes:
You obviously have no clue what you are talking about. Not trying to hijack the thread though, sorry and please continue Fadi.

Nice vid Fadi. You plan on taking that thing to the track to get a time?

Now see that Fadi? ask and you shall recieve haha fyi i have the biggest shit eating grin on my face right now. LOL.

So will you seriously consider some daytime runway runs? video and all, if i lived up there id join you but yeah.........

Oh and if the airport officials dont want to cooperate ive found a few loose 100 dollar bills come in handy. If I was you I would look around to find the runway in the best condition, S & S is right, a lot of the older ones can be pretty rough. The Texas A&M car club runs on a retired military field and parts of it are so rough there unusable for the races

Thanks man. Yes, I raised the boost about 2 lbs. Man, I am playing with some major fire, LOL. 11:1 CR with 12 lbs. of boost..:judge:


Fadi, nice run. Do you have tuning software that allows you to log what's happening during WOT under boost? That extra 2 psi may actually be losing some power; added heat may be causing knock reduction...etc.. Do you have meth injection + an intercooler? Even 10 psi on 11:1 CR is :eek2:. You're a Wild man....I love it!

Yes, I might have to get some day time runs to show a clear cut winner. This race was too even to distingusigh a clear cut winner, especially at night time. When we let off the gas, imo, we were directly next to each other. You can actually see this in the video if you really analyze it (Look at side markers, taillights, etc.)

I don't think I am losing power because a) I can monitor my AFR via AFR gauge and b) I am spraying meth so my intake charge is pretty cool and c) Yes, I have IC's.

is yours one of the old rwd or the newer AWD? either way that thing is a monster!

12 lbs of boost on 11:1 CR! :eek: i know theres gotta be plenty of aftermarket heads/pistons for lambos so you can lower that :lol: keep posting these vids man! we all love a nicely modded exotic! (and some pics of your car wouldnt hurt...:))

It's AWD.

Ya, there are plenty of aftermarket stuff for this car, but why pay the large amount of extra cash now when I can have fun with it and then build it after it blows up. :lol:

I run really good gas at all times and run meth, too. Being a 4V head motor, it's very efficient. I wonder what it would feel like on 15 lbs..:)

Here is a picture..

BTW, the ZR1 got his car back yesterday with his mods. It made 606/638 on a low reading, conservative Mustang dyno. We will be running this weekend.

So, I will have vids of me and the IROC again in hope to get a better video and a rematch with the ZR1. Going to be a good weekend. I hope I don't blow up..LOL

Those TT Gallardo's are something amazing. There's a shop on 6speed that built one with 1000hp and did some low 3 second 60-130 on low boost. Those cars are monsters when built. But much respect to the IROC owner.

Fadi,

Your car is really a nice. It's so photogenic. lol

Now I'm wondering what the ZR1 had done to it.



.

Thank you.

The ZR1 is now in the owner's possession. It got completed yesterday. It made 606/638 on a very low reading, conservative Mustang dyno. Vids against the modded ZR1 and the IROC again coming this weekend. Stay tuned...

Oh yes, it's going to be interesting. :cool:

i like how everyone in that picture is completely oblivious to the Lambo. wtf!


i was making a joke about the aftermerket lol i wouldnt imagine there is all kinds of heads/ cams out there like LS motors (duh) but i bet theres a pretty fair amount for an exotic. and if you have the cash to crank it upuntil it blows, then by al means, crank it up & keep the camera rolling! :)

I don't think I am losing power because a) I can monitor my AFR via AFR gauge and b) I am spraying meth so my intake charge is pretty cool and c) Yes, I have IC's.


Agreed, you're not losing power. That's why I asked about using Meth & an intercooler. Wow, nice set-up!

More Pics!!! very sexy, not to mention a sleeper in its own right, correct me if im wrong but arent they like 450-500hp stock? now your pushing 700@10psi so maybe 750@12?

I bet theres a few Murciealago owners out there you could really piss off LOL

Exactly. I am thinking I am about 750 rwhp on 12 lbs. But just a guess, who knows.

As usual Fadi, VERY NICE !!

What did Jorday have done again ? I was thinking he would've made more then 600 rwhp, but maybe I am misremembering what was done to the car.

The fact he's making 30+ rwtq more then a very nice 600+ rwhp is sweet. That thing must really scoot.

I was actually kind of near you last night (Auburn Hills area) and ran across a big Benz. He was trying to get me to run. Well after a few prods, I gave in and promptly walked away from him. He may have something nice under the hood, but he stills weighs 4 or 5000 lbs !!! I'm not sure what model though, just know it wasn't any 400 series, it was one of the big boys. I'd love to come across one of the BRABUS prepped Benz'

Thanks, Doug.

He got the SC pully upgrades, LT headers, deleted cats, and a tune. It will amke 650 rwhp on a dynojet.

There might be some FAST cars out this weekend. Will make some cool vids this weekend. Stay tuned.

Were will this be at? I would like to come out and play.

Check your PM.

Sponge Vet,

Let me know what night is better for you. Friday night or Saturday night. I am trying to get this meet organized and I need to know what night works for you.

That Iroc had a 305 in it.

Nice to see you two made up! :wink:

Nice car Fady, wasn't aware that you sold the Z06 and got this.

Have a TT Lambo is sick in of itself. Not a fan of nitrous. Sick rides! :D

Wow this is the stuff dreams are made of...

Fadi sick lambo dude, just sick!
That IROC is nasty!
Man I would pay just to watch these races in person lol

What kind of weight is ur lambo? I dont even wanna guess. lol

A few observations about the Lamborgini...

I like the way the mirrors flip up.

Was wondering what the window stickers are on the driver's side.

A rearview picture would have been cool, but not if you're getting beating in a race.


.

Holy shit, sick!

When did you turbo it? I remember when you first got it and put a cat back on it or something and I thought you said you werent doing anything else. :jest:

If you ever need a camera man to ride along let me know!! lol
