    I swore you its anothe dimension and you have a new target after the drive:)
    Its unbelievable!!!!!! Do NOT compare one of those Diablos with a "usual" 1991 - 1998 diablo!

    Les photos des Countachs sont belles. J'ai l'impression qu'elles se font de plus en plus rares sur les routes.

    No, never had the experience of being a driver or even a passenger in any Lamborghini... unfortanetely... :):( Probably never will either...
    But I believe you when you say it is unbelievable ;)
    And I guess you're right that those Diablo's are completely different machines then the "regular" Diablo's :)
    But I'm just not aware of it :)

    Guy & Alex,

    you drive me crazy ;)

    I know that you both are not realy in love with Lamborghini.
    Anyway, its all a matter of taste :)

    About the Diablo:
    I was on the way and pre-signed (hand-shake) the buying contract for the yellow Diablo SV. Deadline was end of December this year.
    Lots of things happened during the last 6 months. I bought my first F3 car - a Dallara F 301 and now my second a Dallara F 398......a trailor, some spare parts......a.s.o. realy too much to list.
    Result - money has gone, spent all my cash for my own F3 team. Still dont know it it works and worth it?!
    At least it wasan still is a lots of fun to drive a F3!!!!!!! An experience i dont want to miss.

    As you know, we're just joking!! :) ;)
    BUT, i think you made the right choice!!!! An F3 car is waaaay more fun!!!
    I once drove a Formule Renault (yes, not really the same, i know) at Zandvoort! :) But not that fast and behind a pace car!! But i could feel the car handles like nothing else!! You turn the wheel a millimeter and the thing just corners!!! No matter what speed!! :)
    And then the brakes!!! Oh my god!!! Then you really know why that racing harness is for!!! ;) :D

    But on the other hand, an F3 car is only for the track! The Diablo you can drive on the road, whenever you want! :)

    Still hope , one day you'll own that Yellow Diablo SV!!! :)

    excatly! you hit the nail!
    Its sadly impossible to describe THIS feeling to somebody who has never driven a singel seater / Formula car.

    Another reason why I still do not own the SV: I have/must sell the testa - and I dont want to sell my testa!!!!!!! I realy love this car after 2 years and 15.000 km the beast & me got "warm" after several fights :D
    This testa is realy like a wife....my little Pamela Anderson - you have to: ______________________ before and THAN ________________:) :) :)
    yes, it takes a while.

    Believe me, each standard Ferrari/Lamborghini is boring during the summer months in MC.

    You've got that right my friend. I have had the pleasure of being both a passenger and driver in a 2001 6.0 VT (Black on Black monster) and I still get chills thinking about it. Unreal! Both the exterior and interior are flawless. Also, you are right about the 91 Diablo's not being as much of a car BUT I still think they are crazy. They are brute, very primary and you can cut yourself getting in ;) But I love that.

    Happy Holidays.

    Vasco

    P.S Here is a picture of her rear at Mosport Toronto in 2004. That day on the way home from the Lambo Track day we did 285KM on the back road. Neary ****e me pants in the passenger seat!
