Oh, so I guess someone should tell all the formula 1, nascar, crafstman truck series, arca, dirt track, World Rally League, and SCCA racers that they have the wrong set-up.

formula 1's are autos with paddle shifters

auto built up right is good for straight racing, stalled even better for track.
manuals are better for road course track.

it depends what setup you want. also if you have a manual you get better returns on the mods like 3% more than auto, but I've raced against many manual cars with 20-30 more hp than me and blew their doors in on the highway. people can't shift fast enough...

let's not turn this thread into A4 vs M6, if you wanna do so, go find so many threads on this exact subject... this is about racing a new Lambo...

Either way, grossly overpriced.

too much money I agree, so are the Saleen and Enzos...etc...

about the apperance, 2 exhaust tips on regular 2006 I see, one big almost rectangular exhaust tip on new LP640... and the whole rear end trunk looks slightly different.

regular Murcielago

vs

2007 LP640 Murcielago

No offense, but had that race lasted a little bit longer and had the driver been competent....it would have been a whole 'nother story. I know your car is fast, but those Bulls are made to run @ those speeds. That 8000rpm redline ain't hurting that Lambo either. There's 320k for a reason.

**djvaly** · 09-16-2007, 06:20 PM

I agree, even if I was packing 550rwhp as him I'd still be a bit in trouble after 110 or so when his aerodynamics kick in nicely.

I think had we gone further 40-120mph he'd put 3-4 cars on me... but that's not a bad picture either considering I am 60rwhp less than him. I wish you were there to see it, it looked like a super bad ass car!

I enjoy shutting down an entire highway as they watch over 1100 combined HP of american muscle unleash at WOT silencing every other sound for a half mile around.

**djvaly** · 09-16-2007, 06:30 PM

yep. it was fun when we did that,

**djvaly** · 09-16-2007, 06:33 PM

just having that super car waste his gas on me, and him getting the first jump on me made my day... he heard the 402 ls2 sound, he wanted to give it a try

turbo goes in next...

600-630rwhp then I'd eat the Murci for lunch

**FuhBreezeE** · 09-16-2007, 06:35 PM

You aren't seriously considering a turbo....are you?

u? turbo?

im scared...

**djvaly** · 09-16-2007, 06:36 PM

I am, transmission is stage 5 so good to like 650rwhp or more... rearend good to 800+rwhp

gotto do CR lowering before, but yeah that'd be in Pennsylvania, not now... buying the house next on the list...

**djvaly** · 09-16-2007, 06:38 PM

if I could just find a new Viper 600hp... to measure up... I think that's a driver's race.

I should go on viperalley.com and callout those stooges

**djvaly** · 09-16-2007, 06:41 PM

hahhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaahahahahhaha, put on the sound!

2007 Viper video. "this will blow your socks off" so they say...

I was looking on youtube.com and this shit came up

**djvaly** · 09-16-2007, 06:52 PM

or my other option is to sell the TA and get an LS3 in 2yrs and get a twin turbo on that as well. same results hp I think, but less weight, I think 3200 lbs and I may go M6 this time to switch it up a bit... weekend car is ok M6, I'd hate city traffic and daily M6...

Much better route, I like that idea.
