165 in 360 modena.

I also did a record 0-100 to 30 in the running of the bulls when a officer was heading down the road in the Malibu area on pch heading in the opposite direction!

Yes, that flapping roof valance scared the sh!t out of me as well, as I was directly behind you. If that thing flew off, it would certainly hit my car first.

I also experienced that 0-100-20 in a hurry to avoid hitting you at PCH. Remember?

LOL

185 M.P.H. on my Ducati and got stopped by the police, luckily they were on a call and just screamed at me to slow down.
175 M.P.H. in a Gallardo and only 150 M.P.H in the Countach, she is 21 years old you know!!

192 mph in a 911T with 550bhp kit.
185 mph in my 360M near enough top end.
70 mph in the Gallardo, just picked it up! I'm sure there's more to come.

70 mph? LOL. Did you shift out of first gear?

Hurry up with your break-in period so you can really test your G-car out.

Welcome to L-talk.

Was fortunate to be invited to Nashville Speedway, a 1.4 mile oval track with infield road course, for a day of wringing out various cars. had the Gallardo close to 160 mph on the main straight. There was a Porsche GT3, a Modena and a variety of Vettes, BMW's, even a Mini Cooper S, which was extremely entertaining. The sound of the Gallardo with the Tubi exhaust had everyone stopping in their tracks. It sounded like an F1 car, and that was the general concensus of those who were there. The Gallardo seemed to be the hit of the group.

145 mph lotus esprit v8 tt (sounded like I was in hurricane)
160 mph dodge stealth twin turbo (felt good NO BRAKES)
190 suzuki hayabusa (Happy as could be)
140 mph 91 diablo (seemed good a little twitchy)
140 mph 83 countach (in a 35 mph zone, got caught by the police after a little chase....oops!)
130 mph wifes honda accord (felt fine)
getting more paranoid with age, probably something to do with the countach experience.
