Oh, Snap!!! I just realized, this is Bill (after Paulie schooled me), owner of Frank and Steins.
Hey buddy, hope I didn't offend w/ my earlier comment.
For anyone who doesn't know, Bill is a super cool guy. Always has something nice to say about everyone....and here I come raining on his parade.
Congrats bud, glad that the car is yours.

What's the life span of the carbon front brakes with a r package? That's allot of power to stop! Just wondering cause thats the brakes on my old sls and they looked pretty beefy!

long time no see .
no offense taken at all It was a very legit question . Truth is I wanted to walk away for the win that day for UGR . Tag is definitely a more experienced driver and even though my grandmother could drive the SL it was not a good time to take a chance . However, I have since driven the car at the full boost setting and have to tell you it is amazing and easy to drive basically point and shoot !!
I am blessed enough to ahave a second TTG that is a sixspeed car and have no plans of Tag coming near that one LOL !

Rep Power: 197 Thank you for the kind words guys !
I would like to start off by thanking Kevin for his patience in dealing with me for the last six or so years . I have been pestering him about building a TTG since they were prototyping their first one . I must have called that poor bastard 50 plus times and picked his brian as little as it is promising him I would build one . Well six years later here we are Kevin helped me find and build my 08 Griglo telesto Superleggera "Jane doe" .
Next stop TI event Kevin ,KC, Matt and the rest of the UGR guys delivered not only what they had said they would, but a car in everyway that has far surpassed my expectations . The UGR Lambos are fast works of art . I have had a ton of fast cars over the years vipers,Supras and porsches .The quality of workmanship on this car is only exceeded by its ability to push your eyeballs back into your skull . For those who have not experienced one of these it is like driving a 9 second drag car at the strip on slicks when in actuallity you are on street tires on a regular road . Brutal acceleration for a street car !!
Under the hood UGR has a very simple and well engineered TT kit along with flawless attention to detail .I'm a stickler for perfection and there is not one sratch or dent anywhere inside the engine bay . You would look at it and swear its all OEM .
I got to meet john Reed who tunes all the UGR cars a very down to earth regular guy . Thank you for all your help this weekend John the car is a monster .
We took the car To the TI initational event and won the King of the street race with my buddy Tag "the real Stig " Marlow taking driving honors (Tag is looking for paying sponsers LOL ! ) .UGR also had Bob Helms, Peter's SW's and Jamie Carters cars there too . These cars looked amazing under the hoods and prefored really well through the weekend .Other than that The AMS car performed very well and is one fast ***** as is the 1 percent Viper ! Devil Dawg ,Old Betz , Mullet , Thiago ran consistantly well as did the Silver Poromotive porsche and Rheza's T1 GTR .
Special thanks to Amar ,his wife , Hector ,RC and the rest of the crew for making this event happen . A great day of racing with UGR taking top honors .
Bill
afterthoughts :
Jamie Carter has got to be the least bull****ting racer of all time .Great time hanging out with you man !
Porsche > Mullet
