  1. I'm assuming he was running race gas? G looked squirelly even at high mph.. crazy!!!
  2. Damn. Got me figured out already? Damn it. I like to be more mysterious. Oh well. If holt didn't leave ran multiple times the same day and has never driven the car in that configuration then that's still impressive. If driving a car/rocket to 250 mph in a mile is just another day to you then you sir were born with a pair of steel balls. I'm on a plane about to leave for a trip. Have a great day!
  3. I'm not doubting the man. I'm saying for the detractors. Alot of people like to see youtube vids and are quick to say oh.. some one is using N20. I, for one, don't care how speed is made. But for alot of other people they claim to have the fastest street car. If your going to toot that horn, and then reveal later that interior was removed to make the speed, then to me it's the same thing as using N20 and not telling people. If I went and bought a GTR and got the package from a vendor and went to the local dragstrip.. I am going to expect to be able to roll up and hammer a ET roughly similar to that. Especially if they say street car. Now if they say I have to remove my seat, or I have to buy a CF trunk/hood and remove my seat, Go on a Jenny craig diet and then maybe I will hit that ET, would make a big difference. What I like about the GTT is that they can honestly say they roll up to the track.. heat up tires and knock out that number while holding on to the wheel for dear life. UGR has the vid of Richard hitting 250 in the mile. He had several cameras in the cabin. Did a first ever run and bam. Who's going to say something. I'm not huge on Vendor bashing but It happens. they push the envelope for everyone, hit an accomplishment and then other people question the validity of the accomplishment. Also.. I did say it was just a suggestion. They can take it how they want. I personally meant no offense as you seem to be offended.
  4. Impressive build. Just read the blog. The SPE750 package features stock turbos? or modified stock? or secret?
  5. That sounds fun, but it'll have to wait for a little while. To many things going on with the company. but when I do, it will be a good race for sure. Just want you to be king of Hawaii's H3 for a while first.
  6. Full interior street car on street tires? doing a 177? Dayum!!!!!!! Just a suggestion.. when doing the next vid. Show the interior and exterior of the Car to show seats not removed, Headliner not removed, sunvisors not removed. To me this is pretty damn amazing. GTR's hitting near that number is almost 200 lbs lighter = .1 sec per. So keeping in mind that the GTT rolls up and nails it vs. a GTR rolling up, removing about 200 lbs worth of stuff just loses it's mythical luster to me. Congrats!
  7. Did you do any weight reduction on the Lambo? ie. Seat removal and stuff? Just wondering.
  8. Because the GTR is worth their weight in Gold? Shit.. that's alooooooooot of Gold! at least 4000 lbs. of it! googled it and that's about 500 bars of gold weighing in at about 8 pounds each.
  9. Dry. I am figuring maybe 200lbs tops for fluid? is that off base? so maybe about 3100 wet.
  10. So can you confirm that it was Jaimie's Supra breaking the laws of physics instead of his Lambo? Also.. anyone weigh the LP570? I'd like to know what the weight difference is to an 08-08 SL, Lp550, and Lp560.
  11. Welcome to LP Ryan! Can't wait to see the SPE1000 come home. Thing is going to break alot of hearts.. vipers, other GTR's, Lambos, supras...
  12. In case the Journalists don't see the big sign with "BRAKE" on it? I guess if Lamborghini says we showed them 2 times and they crashed it.. it's undoubtedly their fault!
  13. Was that LP570 a pace car? or was it in the lead cause it was kicking the LP700's butt? If the latter, i'm glad I got the LP570.
  14. Let me have some fun while it's stock for a little bit.. then we can have real fun after I send it to you, Alex!! Lol!
  15. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Se0v8D5grGE Still not used to how much bite the CCB has. And not used to the AWD. Turns aren't as scary.
  16. That was me. It was my first time driving aggressively in the SL. Was only driving on sport mode. As far as jumping, my wife was with me and I didn't feel like rolling down my window to listen to honking cause it was very hot out that day. I tried honking but he couldn't hear me as well. Supposed to have a meet this Sunday. Hopefully the weather is clear and we can get a couple clean runs in with vid.
  17. Ahahahah! That's my neighbor! I know what your talking about. He is a douche sometimes, but he's one of my buddy's from my infantry unit in Hawaii, when I served.
  18. Thanks Everyone! I haven't been enjoying it much yet cause of all the rain this past week. But hopefully it'll clear up and I can get a good drive around the island! H3? Haunted? With all the Honda civic's cruising and ripping it up and down the H3 with their loud ass fart cans.. the ghost's all ran off scared! LOL
  19. Congrats! If I didn't get the GT, I would have wanted a VI! Very beautiful!
  20. Thanks guys! I live on Oahu. Every road on Oahu is new now with the SL. I try to find some twisty roads to see how it handles, and some long stretches of road just to punch it. Here is a tribute video to my car I traded in for. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ddv2M78zaxg&feature=feedu I hope to have more video in the upcoming months!
  21. Thanks. I'm not sure if I can remove the stripe without removing the rest of the sticker. Thanks! How do I go about doing that? Thanks! Everything about it is amazing. The exhaust note at low idle or cruising is so quiet I can hold a conversation. But when I step on the Gas.. it sings to me! Thanks! It happens to me too.. Go in to the dealership.. test drive a car.. walk away with said car.. freakin Curse man! Thanks! If there weren't so many potholes to avoid It would be sooooo much nicer.. but as long as the sun's out.. it's a beautiful place. Just unfortunate Hawaii doesn't have a track at the moment. When I'm ready to send it to Cali for a TT upgrade, it will see some tracks before then.. just want to enjoy it like it is for a bit.
  22. Oh yeah.. I was wondering where to get some black outs for the rear and the side markers.. Thanks!
  23. I have been wanting a Gallardo for a long time now. Just never bit the bullet. Went to the stealership this past week and saw a Grigio Telestro SL and fell in love! I got a test drive, and that was it. Sold. Not a huge fan of the italian pin stripe on the side.. Hopefully soon, I can get some shots with more Hawaii scenery in the background. Some sandy beaches or Mountains..
