Nice cars.. looks like a fun time.

I'm guessing though if you put the price difference between the 2 cars into mods for the z06, it'd be a much more different race

Ill be the first to say this cant be a stock vs stock race. Ive seen an 08 Viper ACR vs an LP560-4 and the ACR pulled it easily up to about 130mph. Its on Youtube. Z06 aint that much slower than the 08 Vipers. This race looks like either the Lambo is modded and is making 100+hp more or the Z06 guy cant drive. I expect this result from a dig but not a roll like this. Whats the real story behind this race If Im wrong so be it but I dont think so.

I agree, that Lambo ain't stock, or the Z06 driver really sucks.

yaa i think the ZO6 driver sucks...cauz a 997 GT2 PORSCHE KICKED HIS ***...the vedio is here...but still a GT2 is a beast.
btw the same Z06 raced an AUDI R8 n' he kicked the R8s *** more than once! n another race with the GTR35 n still he won !

I'm betting the Z06 driver started in the wrong gear. Try one gear lower next time, it seems to lag as soon as the race starts.

The Z06 guy does not know how to shift the car and I did not even hear the car being punched hard. Not to mention Z06 weighs less and HP/WT ratio so should have been a very close head to head not like that. IMO

I agree. Either that or there's more to the story...

I think the z06 driver started in fourth. Also the Z was really quite. Ooh well driver error or not it's still a win for the Lambo. Good kill.

The object in the rear view mirror looks different because it's in Arabic.
