Is what it was.....not too worried about it. Everything happened just as I said it. That's the prob with posting vids as you always have smart asses that like to instigate...thought folks would like to see the vids, and wasn't trying to open a debate.

very confusing op???? Your co-pilot says "Lamborghini about to get his but whipped" while you guys are allegedly WOT passing the Lambo?? Then the Lambo puts it's hazzards on and flys by you then backs off????? Can you further explain this anomaly? I just watched the "pacing" vid alongside of the "in it to win it vid" and saw little difference in regards to lane markings and background, you are definately NOT doing 140..

Some people need to stop looking at the video to compare speed. It doesn't work well. I've seen many videos on here and YouTube and they all look about the same.

If the best he's got is 11.78 then he would be sadly mistaken. My car traps 11.5s in the 130 range on street tires (Nitto Invo's). If not the TA, can still grab hold of the GN and run him in the 1/8th, 1/4...won't matter!

*edit just listened again and its faint but i believe you now and apologize. you can hear the lambo in it hard just as the op is on his bumper, lambo makes a gear change. listening to it while bored on a line for a gay ridein disney was a bad choice. OP, you're still a tool for calling my truck out and your co-pilot is the worst narrator.....ever lol
PS, keep that thing in the south, example of street rods around here? S10 Blazer runnin 9's @148 on DR's lol i'll link the vids if needed.

Nice videos. Thanks for sharing. Looks like a pretty bad *** setup you have there. you still on stock rear end. I thought with the cam etc. you'd be low 11's maybe even high 10's.
How do you like the invo's any recommendations on heating them up etc.? I have a set on my T/A wheels they don't seem too sticky.

i was going to go into a whole thing then erased it. this isn't about your TA that runs 11.5 @130 (and weighs what?) and i (truck ie. brick, 4800lbs). stick to the point bro. it just doesn't sound/look right. your car and that lambo are doing 140 in that vid, that quietly?
*edit just listened again and its faint but i believe you now and apologize. you can hear the lambo in it hard just as the op is on his bumper, lambo makes a gear change. listening to it while bored on a line for a gay ridein disney was a bad choice.

Someone else made a statement about me not liking the outcome of a dig run with your TB. I was simply responding to that statement.
In all actuality, I was playing with you on the call out from you being harsh about my posting...fact is, I just posted it as not many people get to see the Lambo's running around and thought folks would enjoy it. Since you weren't there, you can't make an intelligent statement about validity one way or the other...

You know, a good tire I have been really impressed with are the Invo's and also General Exclaim UHP's....AWESOME cheap tires that hook well, and last forever. I don't heat cycle them much due to my rear end situation, but a lot of my vette buddies run the Invo's as well and launch them well. One of my Z06 buddies ran 10.9 @ 129 a couple weeks ago on the Invo's...pretty impressive.

I was filling up at the gas station a couple of weeks ago and a guy came up to me and asked me how long I had owned the car. I told him and he said that I had blown him away a couple of years ago. I was not trying to be a smart azz but I told him that had happened many times and that I did not recognize him. He tells me it was a black Lambo Gallardo. When he said that I remembered the event well. I was not sure what the hell he was driving at the time. I knew it was some kind of Italian car. I told him that I remembered the race. As a matter of fact I got him twice before he turned off onto a different highway. We went once and then I slowed down and we did it again. Said that he sold the car right after that and the race results was the reason. We went from a roll at about 45 and I let off at about 130. I was surprised that I walked him that EZ. I figured that one of those cars would be bad azz when we got to 100. He was real kool about it. Kind of made me feel good that my old f body ran off from a high dollar ride like that...

That was the slowest "race" I've ever seen. Looked like a 40-75 roll at half throttle. Total BS on the racing part. Your car was WAY too quiet. A stock LS1 would have been louder at WOT.
