1000 whp in a Gallardo is just senseless in my opinion , there is no way you will bring the power from the wheels to the street, car just hast too much torque.

Oh come on....they had their headlights on (most of the time) and honking their horns to let people know they were racing. That is pretty safe, right?

Obviously doing this one too many times caused the driveline to go bang!

Another great video!!!

I see, thanks.

pichi826 is an unknown quantity at this point

I think the moral of the story is to get an R35 and make over 1100 whp. Great car but if i choose to build a high horsepower car i'll pick the ford gt and try to reach the 1500-1700 whp range. But that's just me.... or you can never go wrong with a 2jz...
