how about off roading?

Oh man, that would be sweet. Although rally racing did try racing like 600hp cars called the B class. Those things FLEW. Literally. Too bad too many people died. Pvssies.

check this out. You might want to fast foward to the end, but it handles exeptionaly well. This is just a regular C6 in this video so just imagine what the Z06 could've done.

That's a tough one. The Z06 and Gallardo would be way too low to the ground and have too much torque for their own good. The Echo... well, if it managed to avoid any ditches or rivers it would be ok.

or big holes that send a wheel up into the air? or the supporting wire of a telephone pole?

Probably pretty close actually. Man, that Gallardo sounded sexy though!

Hell yeah.

Also someone else had to notice that the driver of the gallardo sucks. It sounds like he missed a gear or it bounced. It was a smooth click vrmmm. You could seriously tell that the Gallardo lost big time on a bad shift.

-Kevin

The Gallardo has a flappy panel gear shift so I don't he could have screwed up that bad. At least not enough to cause him to loose.

Well you noticed that he had a bad shift. There is no way that the C6 has enough power at the end of 3rd beginning of 4th to simply blow by the Lambo, some outside factor had to have come into play. After he shifted for the second time you could see the car jump and lose speed.

for all you are defending the Gallardo, that car is also not stock.

another thread pointed it out on another forum, where it has since been removed since this is street racing

pretty similar. The C6 z06 actually pulls some crazy g loads in the turns.

You know what i would like to see a video of?

Bugatti Veyron.

W-16 Engine, QUAD Turbo.

Its 0-60 time is something like 2.4 seconds. I dont think i can get out of 1st gear in my truck in that time!!

The Ford GT90 Concept and Bugatti EB110 both had quad turbos more than 10 years ago. Of course neither had the money of Volkswagen behind them which is probably why they failed.

Wow, very impressive run for the Z06.

Originally posted by: MIKEMIKE
that gallardo pulled, but the vette seems to hit 3rd gear and just blow past it.
Seems to me the Gallardo only pulled because it started accelerating before the Vette knew to go.

Anyone know what the speed is on a Vette Z06 when the needle is nearly horizontal on the right side of the gauge?
