When do the Road Tests begin?
Any info on when we'll start to see third party - car mags and maybe even Hib at CAC - with some road test data and impressions?

Supposedly road tests were supposed to start in March, which means it won't be until May's car mags or later that the results will be published in print. On the internet, on the other hand...

Yeah - I was wondering if there was an April 1 or 15th embargo on the net or something fun like that.
Any confirmation? Mervz? Hib?

Don't know... 
But, I did see on Speed Channel that AutoWeek could only manage a 4.57
0 - 60 in a Lambo Gallardo. I sure hope they don't test the C6 and publish
results first. The C6 0 - 60 could take all morning with them behind the
wheel.

Autoweek tested the Lambo with e-gear, the semi automatic. These transmissions will not give you the best launch, unless you know what you're doing. They do not! I too saw the test. The entire thing was a joke!
