will the Porsche tt beat the Gallardo tt one day ?
#91
On a somewhat related note, it looks like Eddie B. in his 964 just raised the bar for P-car's...

And a FGT TT now holds the record, and no AWD! So sorry Supra boys!

I personally dont think the porsche aerodynamic or engine displacement could come any close to them gallardo's .. there is no way you could beat that 5.2 litre displacement nor lambo's aerodynamic look when it comes to long pulls ..

What type of information do you base your comment on? The last couple of years a few 3.4liter Supras went 230mph+ and a couple 240mph+ at the TX mile.
SpunkyQ8:
u said it "couple of years ago" .. now where are those supra's standing ?? gallardo's are dominating the TX mile .. and I'm relying my info based on logic ! gallardo's are one of most aerodynamic sports cars out there with big engines and big turbo's, not to mention the unladen weight ! and the fact that they r making 1100+ to the wheels .. I am a porsche fan to the roots but lets face it how could u beat that???

Can't argue with displacement, however, I believe you are incorrect in your generalization of the Gallardo's aerodynamics. This has been independently tested at Daimler's wind tunnel facility in Stuttgart-Untertürkheim, Germany.
Sport Auto 2006
Drag Coefficient testing
Daimler, Stuttgart-Untertürkheim
2007 Lamborghini Gallardo
Cd 0.34
Frontal area 1.95 meters^2
CdA 0.663
2007 Porsche 997 Turbo
Cd 0.29
Frontal area = 2.03 meters^2
CdA 0.589
There are very few cars as slippery as the Turbo. The difference in effective drag favors of the Porsche by a significant margin.

uhhh, did you not see JoeTwins 996tt that run 231.4 mph, not on your list. Looks like the FordGT dominated this time you didn't add that one from this last round.
#95
Bro It's the Underground racing TTG who's on top ..
#96
Nope, FordGT just went fastest in the mile. Doesn't matter who tuned it. We are talking cars not tuners. So FordGT dominates right now.
#97
911 turbo
Toyota Supra
& TT Gallardo ..
Cheers,

lol.. No, the thread was about the porsche and lambo, no mention of supra, you added that one. But you made a false statement about who dominates. It is not the G anymore.

Maybe Prche951<!-- google_ad_section_end --> didn't notice the 2nd heffner FGT .. he might wana edit it again ..

There are a few drag cars making 2000 plus rwhp but they are geared to run the 1/4 mile. They have all of the safety equipment and are set up to launch hard...I guess I am curious what it would take to convert one of these cars into a 280 mph car at the mile.
