Gallardo vs me
#7
AFAIK they run a 500HP 5L V10. Nice TQ numbers, much nicer HP numbers. But they are heavier and the AWD will make them more like low 400s WHP than mid 400s WHP. He might have gotten it back up top with the gearing and HP, maybe not. Why only to 60?
Definitely a nice kill.

Didn't sound right to me either, 'til I saw him falling back in my rearview. At the next redlight he gave me a no-no sign and he was pissed ... lol! I just smiled and waved. Haven't ran my car yet since the motor was built, but, it's a low-11's car. After looking at the specs, I understood why I beat him with excess weight in the car (my wife is heavy) and a full tank of gas. Those cars are $200,000 and they're slow for the amount of money you pay for them. I'm sure they ride a lot better and are well worth the money to own that sort of prestigeous automobile. Nonetheless, it doesn't change the fact that I'll beat him again if he comes around picking on me again.
The reason I only went 0-60 with him is because (1) most importantly my wife was in the car and (2) was still pulling hard on him and there was no sense in going any faster.
Thanks for replying everybody.

I have a video of a bolt-on C6 Z06 racing a Gallardo for what appears to be a 50mph punch... pulls MAYBE 2 cars on the Gallardo to well over 100mph. So if your 400rwhp F-body beat one from 10-60mph (since the Gallardo is AWD and all), I blame the driver. But good run, take what you can get.

IMO.

It was 10-60 and I beat him and kept pulling on him, so, call it what you will. With another adult passenger and a full tank of gas, I still beat the guy hard and he wasn't missing gears. His driving was fine. It was a clean race.

I dont think he waqs racing as well...And what gears did he have to row?????You only went to 60...
My Vette could do 55 in first gear and my Viper will do 70 in second gear..He changed gears maybe once at most.....

10-60mph definitely doesn't show you what a car can do nor does it
constitute a race. My 2 cents only.
