C6 Z vs. Gallardo highway roll on
 

http://videos.streetfire.net/search/...AC6D95C085.htm

the tall 2nd gear is to blame for gallardos quick jump ahead of the Z... but power and weight add up to the lambo losing ;)

Just shows how good the Z06 is for the money, but u r right nthfinity, the weight probably had allot to do with the gallardo losing the lead.

i love Audi... and the Gallardo Spyder... and murcielago... but i dont think they can make a light-weight AWD system like Porsche can

U r right again nthfinity, Lambo's always needed to loose some weight with their models, but hopefully Audi is going to put them on a big diet for their future models, so they can go against the competitors head on.

...and i hugely respect porsches for perfecting their models to every detail from weight to mechanics in their models, even though I'm not a big fan of their old school styling.

rc posted this some time ago...

i guess i was thinking that was a C5 Z vs. a Gallardo... am i mistaken?

that was another one, you know how he likes to prove his point, but i had seen this vid for sure...

Prove a point? ;)

The proof is in the videos... the incar Lambo and in-car C6 Z videos show.. a C6 Z will outpull a Gallardo... and the chap should know - both cars are his ;)

ok, then ill rephrase it to:

...you know how he likes to show the truth to fanboys... :P

^^^ lol at "rephrase" ;)


I mean... lol at "fanboys".. :P hehe

You say that, and whilst I don't deny it, it isn't as cut and dry as that. There is another video, plus a couple of respected Gallard owners' experiences, that show that a Gallardo can fend off a Z06 nicely in a highway race.

Post away - as we say in these parts...

Pics or STFU. :P

Then again, who really cares about a "highway race" - afterall, that's just an admission that when the road gets twisty, the big fat lambo loses out big time ;)

p.s. - the name "allanlambo" better not be in that list of "respected" gallardo owners... :roll:

allannambla? :lol:

LOL. No, Allanlambo is not who I was thinking of. However, a nice guy by the name of "Clax" is. As he said himself, he didn't believe it, but what happened happened: the stock Gallardo pulled on the stock Z06. RC: we both know that all of these kinds of cars are pretty darned close in real performance 90% of the time and for 90% of the time it's down to the driver, or how much fuel they have in the tank, or small things that make big differences. I'll try and upload the video in a sec.

EDIT: Here: http://rapidshare.de/files/13729110/...Z06_1.wmv.html

I know that there was no "three honks" but the fact is that the cars were, I would say, just about dead even, with the Lambo doing slightly, slightly better.

Oh, and in regards to Allan: he thinks that the Z06 is very, very fast and says that it has the better of the Gallardo 99% of the time. However, it's still a Corvette. He has a point.

^^^^^
thats a C5 Z barely creeping behind ;)

the C6 Z has an extra 100 ponies (perhaps as much as 130 extra) on the C5 Z.... the C5 Z and C6 Z are less then 100 lbs different (w/out the driver)... where the Gallardo weights in at 3900 vs 3080 lbs for the vette... thats where that 100 hp advantage is killed in the Gallardo...
