thiis thing is sweet but when using there new Thurst mode it looks like a failed launch every time. Which is to bad because it would probubly be alot faster if it could get up off the line.

I hope this Vid work. io cannot open youtube right now but if this vid doesnt work just pull it up on u tube

WTF, "air conditioning is off so we can have maximum power"? It's really sad if a $220k car can't detect wide open throttle to automatically disengage the compressor...it's just a simple relay!

In the new motor trend they test drove both the new lambo and the new 430 scuderia, they are pratically the same price but if i was to spend that kind of money i would much rather have the new ferrari.

I think the new lambo was released prematurly and they sould have improved a few things like the A/C thing and the ****ty launch control system that seems to make the car bog on a launch. If they could have gotten the launch control better i bet it would have picked up a few tenths in the quarter mile acceleration.

terrible launch.

When Jeremy did it with the Lp640 it was far more impressive.

for the price of it, everything should be damn near perfect. i would be pissed if i spent over 200k for a car that looked like i F'd up the launch every time

Only if you feel like you need to impress people... As if a lambo doesn't do that anyway

I do, i care more about the drive than the looks.

As an AWDer you should know first hand that the launch doesn't determine the driving experience. Who would be drag racing their lambo from a dead stop anyway? Think about how harmful a hard launch is on a Subaru and now imagine all the broken parts are gonna cost you $40k +

I also care more about the drive than the looks. At the same time, the driving experience > ultimate speed all day every day

Oh, i wasn't referring my comment toward the Lambo's launch, i was just saying the drive (overall) is more important than the looks of it. The launch control i feel is just there for morons.

On my Sti, i usually don't pull as good of a 60 foot time in my car cause i refuse to launch it very hard for the same reason you wrote.

If they could have gotten the launch control better i bet it would have picked up a few tenths in the quarter mile acceleration.Slightly bogging (sometimes with a small amount of wheel spin) is ALWAYS faster than spinning off the line. Locate 60' times for both launches on the exact same car or just practice at a strip and see which one is quicker...
