Shelby GT500 takes down a Lambo LP640?

This may have already been posted? This video seems a little strange to me, a 510whp GT500 taking down a LP640? What do you guys think?

People here were saying that the GT was making more than 510rwhp and that it was valid.

Personally, I dont see a 510rwhp GT beating an LP640 :shrug:

Was it me or did it sound like the lambo let off for a bit, slowing down at the end there?

Hmm, I definitely didn't see the GT500 taking the Lambo down, especially not the 40 roll race.

exactly what u would expect with a car a 100 less horsepower that's heavier as well. cant even compare these two cars

looked a little fishy :shrug: but cool vid

nothing seems right to me but i know nothing about them cars. my guess is that the lambo let off

i would still take the losers car over the winners

So, a Lambo with about 60-70 more RWHP weighing 3700 LBS, and a GT500 with 510 RWHP, and god knows how much more TQ, weighing 3900LBS, is not a fair race?

They are fairly close in weight, somewhat close in HP, and the GT500 probably has 100 more RWTQ than the Lambo.

Lambos only have 487TQ at the crank. AWD hurts it from a Roll.

I think the edge goes to the Lambo, but with a Good driver, the GT500 can keep up.

Sorry about the re-post, I did not notice it when I searched I think the dude in the lambo is helping to make the GT500 look better than it really is but that’s just a guess. I can't see a 510rwhp GT500 even hanging with a LP640, a typical Murcielago maybe, but not a LP640? If the lambo is trying, the GT500 must have more power than advertised. Still, both are amazing cars and the GT500 is the perfect color combo!

Seeing how the lambo is paddle shifted, i dont think that was driver error.
Still what would you rather drive. A sexy lambo or a gt500? I know what I would pick.

Damn that Lambo is sexy!

THAT is one thing about this thread that can't be disputed. :lol1: Interesting vid though.
