on the vert 2V stang it had exhaust(you could hear) but not sure on other mods and we were on the HWY my car was full 3 other adults but still wouldn't think the 2V would nudge me on the big end! the lambo was silver and had somekind of custom paint on the doors and front? my car is not running in tip top shape(mising,bad idle,stalling in low speeds and sometimes at idle) but no excuses those cars were fast! to give you a little info on my car it's got a Yank 4K stall,full exhaust,TSP lid and DR's with a TUNE that wasn't right from the start it's just time which I have very little of and distance to get it back and see whats going on with it!

If the Lamborghini had a black painted ( SV ) on the doors, don't feel bad, those are very nasty (550 ish HP)

I am having trouble believing you lost to a 2v vert with your mods. Oh well, anything can happen on the street.

He must have had something. If it was just exhaust, and the driver mod being equal, you should have walked his ***. Get your car tuned up and go see if you can't find it again.

I was thinking the same thing. Those aren't the 'normal' diablos.

I can believe it....it was from a roll and we don't know what that stang had. Full bolt ons ~280-290rwhp, and with the problems OD said he has, he's down alot of HP easily.


Omega - get that thing tuned before you blow it. If you're misfiring and stalling, clean your MAF and double check the 'easy to reach' plugs. Then get it retuned. You're may be better off going back to stock tune pending the issues and driving. IMHO, lay low on the racing til you get it fixed.
