The guy either couldn't drive it or was afraid to.

Re:Nice car at strip (Las Vegas)

was it a real Lambo or a replica car? also remember these cars are made for overall speed not 1/4 quickness, take your truck to a rode course or deserted highway with the Lambo see what you think of the car or the driver then each vehicle shines it its own element

It's my pot and I'll stir it if I want to. If you're not careful, I'll stir your's as well!

Re:Nice car at strip (Las Vegas)

Are you sure that was the real thing and not a replica? If it was a replica it could have a small engine in it.

Re:Nice car at strip (Las Vegas)

Has to be a replica or bad driver. We had a purple one that had a small block 350 Chevy in it running 'round here couple years ago.

Re:Nice car at strip (Las Vegas)

It was real as far as I could tell. <br><br>I know different cars are made for different things, hence you won't ever see me at the road course......I stick to the 1/4 mile and 1/8th sometimes for that reason. On the highway i can get over 115mph anyhow due to gears and RPMS....so thats where I stop &quot;racing&quot;. <br><br>Regardless it was a nice car, it should have gone faster if it had a better driver. The Viper it raced ran pretty good.

Re:Nice car at strip (Las Vegas)

It was probably real and the guy did not want to hurt it. Understandable considering the price
