A Twin-Turbo Lamborghini Gallardo has just recorded a new quickest time over this distance. The amazing footage shows just how fast this car disappears over the horizon.
Tuning an already-awesome car may seem an impossible task to many. It did not however deter the legendary racing outfit who made the fantastic become a reality.
The results of the project are truly phenomenal. Taking the exhilaration of the twin-turbocharged Gallardo to the drag race strip it is possible to share in the thrilling visceral occurrence it creates. A true teaser, the short film is just as brief as the time it took the Gallardo to tame the quarter-mile distance record.
The world-legend breaking time for this distance was set at 8.35 seconds, and the video is testament to this real-life record. Maximum speed reached over this concise concourse was recognised as 181 mph by the measurement devices present.
Track-tamed, the car apparently can also handle public roads, just not at such dynamic levels of speed. Between 1000 and 2000 horsepower is the hallmark of this super-tuned thoroughbred, depending on the sort of fuel used. The tuning house claims it can out-accelerate the marvel of the Bugatti Veyron, tackling 0-60 in just 1.5 seconds. With such pressure to perform, it is highly likely that this pedigreed motor will be more of a sprinter and less of an endurance racer. The life expectancy of the engine is therefore justifiably short.
