Jack actually called me the other day and asked if I wanted to try the Z06 vs the Lambo again lol he did a tune up on it and bought like a 2k dollar CAI system for it I am hooking up the 150 shot tomorrow and if he wants to come over to MS from New Orleans you bet I will be taping that race... I am going to hose him so hard.
Hey Roger, see if you can hook up a race between him and I. I also live in New Orleans.. I won't need the N2O to whoop that ASS and I could get it on flim!!

No it's not a straight line car or as powerful as a Murciellaggo, but I would never say it was "nothing special" or compare it to a Porsche Cayman...

I know you were speaking your opinion.

I was just giving my opinion on the matter as well.

No offence intended in my comment.

The Superleggera was 11hp and 126lbs lighter weighed by an independent source. It wasn't that dramatic.

Actually it runs about the same as the C6Z, the LP560 will outrun a C6Z.

The LP560 was heavily revised and more hp. Deep, deep 11s and well into the 120s.

It baselined at about 435whp IIRC. Big difference between the Murciélago and Gallardo.
So this was an AWD dyno showing a 36% loss on the Gallardo and a approx. 27% loss for the Murci? Sounds like an adjustment is needed.

I always leaned towards the Murci myself, but the new LP560 is simply amazing.

Actually the streets are pretty good, but the Cops suck, and the traffic is sucky too. Haynes is not all it is cracked up to be imo.

I had made a comment about two posts prior about all Gallardo's being lp560's, but forgot about the superlegera. I was just saying that even though it doesn't match the lp560's tune of hp that it makes up for it in lightening of weight and suspension so it's essentially a lp560. They're within a .10th of each other in the 1/4, but the superlegera is track ready. Kind of the 430 Scuderia's competition.

I think there is a bigger gap than that. The LP560 is more powerful, almost equal weight and an entirely revised suspension.

552hp vs. 523, 11.2 @ 129.5mph vs. 11.7 @ 123mph going by R&T and C&D. Their procedures are close enough to point to a significant difference between the two.
