11.05 1st run, 11.0 2nd, and 11.06 3rd.

I don't know if it's twin turbo or not because I didn't hear any blowoff valve sound. But if it is twin turbo, I think it's hella slow.

Yea this was on 6speedonline

To me its sad to see it only hit 11s .... if I was the owner I would be pissed ... that Lambo has so much $$$ into it ... think of it compared to a Evo and how easy a evo can hit low 11s (well easy as in way less money then that lambo's twin turbo kit)

Yeah, I don't think it's turbo'd either! If that thing was pegged in second gear with street tires it woulda spun all the way through 2nd, maybe third.

If he launched it every time like he did the first run, then that could be part of the reason for the slow times. The tree went green and the driver was like, "Ok, wait for it, wait for it, what am I going to have for lunch today? Oh crap I'm suppose to be going."

That deserves one of those chants, "SHoulda bought an EVo!!" Why in the world would you spend that much money on a luxury car to go beat on it on a drag strip.

There are those of us who wish we could make that kind of money and think what good we would do with it when we see those who have it waste it like that!!!

To each his own I guess.
