Default Finally went 200+ MPH!

This past weekend I was at an airstrip race event in AZ. Racers had 1/2 mile to run whatever, and whoever they wanted. There were some heavy hitters there, including this Dallas Performance TT Lamborghini Superleggera, a Bugatti, and other 1000+HP cars. I was able to ride along in it, and hit one of bucket list goals of going 200mph! He ended up hitting 208mph in the 1/2 mile without a passenger that weekend, setting the high speed record for the event. The UGR lambo present didn't want anything to do with lining up against him and avoided him like a plaque lol.

Heres a video and a couple pics!

This race is against a twin turbo LS swapped RX7.

Congrats. I have dreams of getting an R8 and sending it to charlotte to let Underground work their magic on it. Nothing insane...just a bolt on. Unless I hit the lottery. Hahahaha

The UGR lambo there was a Stage 3 with ONLY 1250 hp and stock gears so it maxes at 202. He had nothing for that R1 package from DP. I frequent the lambo boards and you would be AMAZED at the fanboi stuff that goes on. You would think that folks that have $200k whips with another $250k in mods would be above it. NOPE!!!

But for perspective...that lambo that wanted nothing to do with your boy's car did this to that Bug:

Amazing power these cars can put out.

For some reason I expected 200 to take a lot longer than 14 seconds - wow. Congrats!

Funny thing is that my boys lambo is STOCK GEARED! There are multiple sources documenting his builds with photos, and he also offered to have UGR or the other owner to pull his powertrain out and confirm it for themselves if they don't believe it. My friends is also a stage 3, and Dallas Performance can confirm he does as well (not that anyone would take their word for it at this point) but sad to see the UGR guys throwing excuses. My friend also raced that Bugatti too, beat it, and was the only one willing to race it from a dig as opposed to a roll like everyone else including the UGR lambo did.


Do you by any chance have the links to the lambo forums drama? LOL I would like to catch up on the gossip haha!!!

Is your friend from Oklahoma? An anastesiologist? Reason I ask is because one of the funnier fanboi threads was started by a guy with a red SL like your friend's. Here ya go...

Hey fellas, I'm the owner of the lambo in question. Just to clear some things up, it is a stock geared stage 3 build by Dallas Performance. B, we need to get together soon man. And yes there were a few of us to beat the Bugatti, but this was my favorite race.
