Just been looking at Underground Racing's twin turbo conversions on Gallardos and lo and behold I see theres a Kiwi owner who's had it done. Anyone know him (her?)

I hope it's LVV certified for road use.

pure publicity!

That record is tough and would akld airport be long enough to get up to speed and stop?

Dunno, it's 3600 metres long, how far to get up to his goal? 1500-2000? The only bonus is that it's flat I guess. And the article on stuff says 1500 rear wheel horsepower, so have they ditched the 4wd system to save weight?

I'm a little late here, but I felt like mentioning that plenty of cars get over 200mph (320kmh) at the Texas Mile events. I think the record was around 245mph (392kmh) with a similar powered Lamborghini. Auckland runway is over twice that length, although I don't know how much space you would need to stop from over 200mph.

I'd imagine the "Rear wheel horsepower" might a journalist who doesn't know what they're talking about.
