    I haven't seen any specs on this...I'm wondering what top speed I can expect from the Gallardo?I'm sure my old buds in the Viper club will be looking to kick my butt! Most all of them have heavy mods.

    Beware of turbo Vipers!!
    I would guess about a 168-172mph.

    Good luck,
    Rick

    I'm thinking more like ~165mph.

    I hear those 850rwhp+ Vipers are doing 195+mph in the mile...

    With 1/4 miles trapping in the 140 range, I would thnk that 200 would be broken easily.

    The deficiency is due to the semi-truck sized front end?

    Plus at 195 in a Viper you KNOW you are at risk!

    I was admitted to 165 tech class.


    Gallardo ran 149-150. Wasn't what I expected but then I didn't know we would be at 6500 feet above sea level!!

    My bud had best mph at 182 in twin supercharged Viper GTS.

    Yes there always are. This is the lowest HP car I've run there.My
    996TT had 560 flywheel HP,the Viper 511 RWHP on motor (685 on juice).
    The Gallardo would be perfect with 625-650 Flywheel HP in my
    opinion.
