No need for any rubbish here. Love Allan's TT Gallardo, love F40's even more. Obviously not an equal race in this instance and no need for the F40 driver to risk anymore in a lop-sided race.
Cool videos of a rare race. Thanks for sharing.

Turns out that F40 is pretty highly modified. Has:
Custom cams
ported heads
3.4 liter
turbos
ecu
Lm exhaust among some of the mods. It belongs to a guy named Rick Doria. Car made 610rwhp.

No, I caught that. My point was that I rather doubt that F40 is making anywhere remotely close to that kind of power. If it were, it would have a nearly identical power to weight ratio as a TTG, so it appears that it's either staged, or something is not what it seems.

F40= 3050/610=5lbs per hp
GTT=3366/763= 4.4lbs per hp and thats on the GTT's LOWEST setting.
At 3366/1005= 3.3lbs per hp. In anycase, neither is remotely close. On pump gas I could add 500lbs to my car, and then we would be even in power to weight. Another factor in the F40s slowness is the very slow shifting transmission.

LOL, let me help you with your math. Direct from Kane00 who weighed his F40 on 4pt scales with half a tank at 3050lbs. My TTG weighed in at 3366lbs with half a tank...
F40= 3050/610=5lbs per hp
GTT=3366/763= 4.4lbs per hp and thats on the GTT's LOWEST setting.
