 Posted: Sun Jun 10, 2007 4:33 am Post subject: blue car vs yellow gallardo |
 |
|
On my way to the brotherz to check out dyno day. I stop at light in middle lane at lambright and dale mabry. Then a yellow gallardo pulls up on my right. Nothing like sitting at a light with no cars in front of you. I look all around for policio but see none. I look over at the driver to see if I can coax a race. Well no coaxing needed. He asks me "do you want to run em?" I just grin and nod my head.
Light turns green and we are off. To his surprise he didn't have much for the blue car. I had him by 4 or 5 cars not much over a 100.
Made my night for sure. Nothing like laying the smack down on a $200,000 car in a 15 year old beater with 6 less cylinders and a baby seat in the back seat.
Specs say the gallardo runs 12.2 at 118 in the 1/4. 4.0secs 0-60mph.

I don't think that's a fair statement. Plenty of other members have very fast cars.

it only takes 378whp in an early evo to kill one 
I think it was my best kill to date.

Its not just the speed your paying for in a Gallardo. Its the status symbol of being able to afford one and with a price around 200,000 and pulling up to a hot spot and have everyone gawking.I would definitely gawk at your evo more than the gallardo jerry but to a gold digging high maintenance woman that gallardo reeks of cash.Who needs gold diggers anyway when you have a piece of Mitsu rally history.My .02
