i'm 62..and when i had my c5z about 380rwhp with nitto's , and i ran a F430.
.
but from the first roll we did, i got him because he had to downshift and he had to go from 4th down to 2nd its sequential...i was already in 2nd..i pulled him to about 80 and he walked me after that..

i could 'nt keep up with him from a dig...he would pull me everytime..it shifted like a motorcycle..
but it was fun and he was a really good sport about it....like he said, what his F430 cost "he better beat me"..

Just curious.. if I was 63 and had a few exotics, I'd probably smirk as well if a kid asked me to race.
22, do i still qualify as a kid?

its the older Gallardo

Do a 50 mph roll. If you can drive good you should pull him.

Its funny I have matched up against both of these and have pulled them both with ease but firmly believe it was mostly due to their poor driving but don’t under estimate good ole torque and sticky rubber and I prob. weighed less, but I would say give them hell to about 80-90 if you have good tires and can drive well. Also had good results against a c63, P997, and P911, F360 and not so good results against a single supra, modded C6 but its all good fun.
