not bad for the GTR, which weighs in about 300 kg more than the competition, costs half of it, and carries 4 people if required....(but that is certainly now what you want to hear when you made this post...)

and the correct spelling is skid-pad....

[Ferrer]

Isn't that technically a new thread about the GT-R?

[The_Canuck]

Impressive numbers for the new LP560, wonder if it can pull tracktimes like a Scud...

Dissapointing numbers by the GT2 however

And like Henk said the GTR did very well among this hardcore crowd.

do you think Monaro Country is interested in our views about the other three cars?

[RacingManiac]

So I can spend 50% of the money and get about 95% there in terms of outright performance.....

It sure can. 1 second behind on Hockenheim & Balocco. And at Vairano, the 430S pulls a 1:15.159 & the LP560-4, a 1:15.714.

Lamborghini has done an amazing job with the LP560-4.

They'd probably have to rename it to something like Superleggera 580 or 590-4 if they bump the power up. Not a bad idea at all.

I really hope they bring out a 560-2 (RWD) out sometime as well, if for no other reason than to see some more wrecked Lambo pics. Am I evil for wanting that?

You have to wonder why they bothered to name it 560-4, if they aren't going to

Ok, then I'm going to be controversial.

It's still just an Audi.

Until the gearbox breaks. Which you have to spend $15k to get it fixed


The GT-R is definitely the "poor man's" supercar

that's the cost of a regular service for a Ferrari anyway...

[RacingManiac]

I think you could pull off warranty coverage on that one, and even if you can't you are still undercutting anyone of those cars by a massive margin....

I read that the GT-R had the edge over the Z06 in a multitrack comparison with a handful of cars.

I suppose the interesting battle will be ZR1 vs. V-Spec.

The LP-560 took the crown however.

Worth a look.
