Trust, another Oklaoma guy just signed up for TT on his LP 570 that is a member of this forum. This one being a rare color and one of my favorite. That makes 4 Underground Racing TT's in OK. Will post some pics soon. Need to get all you guys together for a meetup.

That's some great seat time. My car has been back since the end of Jan and I have put only a few hundred on it.. haha

Looking forward to meeting up next week. Congrats on the build.
Kevin, Being that this build was completed in less than 6 weeks, did you guys use Reza's original transmission case and engine block or a core?
Ripper, you need a sig change, lol

Fadi, we used Reza's original engine and transmission case. Anytime we use a core on a rush job we get approval from the customer. Our machine shop is so fast, we normally don't have to use core's on 6 week 2R builds.

See you all in TX in a week.

Correct my friend! Won't be putting down the power you are yet. Congrats on the build. You sell the aventador for the gallardo?

So it's been right at 3 months now since I've had this car back from UGR so probably time for a review.
Firstly, the car is absolutely everything I was hoping/expecting it to be. It's fast as hell, quality and craftsmanship of the build amazing, support from Kevin, KC and all of the UGR crew have been nothing sort of outstanding.
Driving Impressions:
Aside from the clutch being heavier than stock, it literally drives like stock, starts up just as normal, idles normal, A/C works flawlessly, putts around like it's stock with a bit of turbo whistle.
Power:
6 speed makes power delivery a little more exciting IMO, however the power delivery is exceptionally smooth, car pulls and pulls each gear harder and harder. I'm only revving it to the factory 8500rpm rev limiter and it has plenty to spare. It's as easy to drive at WOT as a stock Gallardo, just revs a fair bit faster lol. It makes all the right sounds, V10, click click from the gated shifter, and BOV's on the shifts, amazing.
Quality of Work:
It's an art form, I wish I could just take the bumper off and leave it off, but not quite practical. The car looks amazing under the hood, I LOVE the intake, just freakin' perfect.
Customer Support:
It's all about relationships in the end, you can have an awesome car and be a ****** and nobody wants to be around you, same goes for a shop. You can have a great product and be jerks and the same goes. Everyone from Kevin, KC, John Reed to every single tech they have been so helpful it's ridiculous. The support at events is incredible, all the other owners are great people. There were 2 things that blew me away;
1. I totally botched a shift the first time I got the car, messed up a lot of stuff (1st -> 2nd -> 1st at WOT) and not only did UGR have the car fixed (pretty much a full build again), but back to me in 3 weeks, INSANE. My car has literally been built twice, in the same time frame many are just getting taken apart.
2. The support even from home is amazing, you know how it goes, you get used to something and it feels broken, John Reed remoted into my computer and reviewed logs, adjusted settings in the tune, etc. all without a hint of complaint. I blew a coupler up a couple of weeks ago because the car is always on kill and stuff happens, Kevin sent me 4 couplers, all new clamps etc. overnight Saturday delivery, car was literally fixed in a day.
Bottom line, the car is all and more you'd expect it to be, I literally can't think of a better car.
I'd like to express my appreciation for the whole UGR crew for answering my questions, entertaining my requests, checking and double checking with me every step of the way during the build on what I wanted (from powder coat, to caliper color, to cage etc.), questioning my thinking, all of it. Class act, customer for life.

Amazing write up! Very detailed and spot on. What people forget is we are driving around street cars but in all reality they are freaking race cars. Hell we have more power than most race cars.
The customer service at tx2k was just insane. I swear my car got cleaner and cleaner after every pass. The customer service was noticed by every shop and they were all amazed. Hell some shops charged track side service fees for their customers at tx2k, no joke.
Good to know you are driving that thing on kill all the time! I just ordered some more import. Cannot wait!
