unbelievable!
Anyone know what kind of tires they are running to do these speeds? The Bugatti folk made all sorts of fuss about their 20k/tire technology that allowed a top speed of what 7mph more? What are these guys running?

Thanks for all the compliments. I'm very proud of the entire Underground Racing team for what we accomplished!! Jonah and Richard did outstanding jobs driving these monsters!! These Underground Racing Lamborghini Gallardo's are 100% street cars with nothing removed! It was a lot of work and long hours to get these cars prepared along with our normal work load at the Underground Racing shops.
We were experimenting with different turbos and set ups the first couple of days at the mile on both Gallardos. Saturday evening we started getting them prepared for Sunday and decided to get them ready for attack mode
as the Supra's and Ford GT's were getting faster by the run. We never got any completely clean runs but were still able to put down 240, 249 and 250 mph passes. We learned a lot, and we will be much more prepared at the next Mile event. I can't wait to see what these Gallardos do on a concrete runway!
Video coming soon

What kind of clutches or aftermarket transmission do you guys run on these cars? stock?
your site doesnt say anything regarding transmission mods, which leads you to believe that they are stock. Which is impossible with 1000hp

Not speaking for the UGR , but your statement is false pertaining to being impossible @ the 1000hp mark. I run my car @ its lowest setting 850rwhp (1000hp) and its on stock clutch, stock trans, ZERO issues... There are guys with upwards of 25K miles running this same setup. Ive also run a few times @ approx 1250hp.
