No. A 6.0 Diablo will put approx 8 - 10 cars on you. They run 11.8x at 121 mph...he will roast your azz.

I used to have a 12.6 drag run... but if they run 11.8 stock...... .... my *** will hurt..

I used to thought they run similar time as 04 Gallardo which is in mid 12 second range...

Depends what year diablo I guess. If its the older one, like 95, I think he might actually win if he launches good. But 6.0, not a chance, like you said.

If the owners not very good at shifting, you might have a chance. But in reality, the Murcie is quite a bit faster and AWD helps traction.

he is not talking about a murcie, but a diablo.

a 2001 diablo (6.0) with good driver beating on the car will run 12 flat

an older diablo will be be behind in the 1/4 mile.

try him. you prolly will be nicely surprised from a dig.

Oh, right. Yeah, a Diablo won't give quite the same results stock, but there's quite a lot of special spec Diablo's out there. I guess it won't hurt to try.
