E55 vs Evotech SLR and many others...(vids)

Hello everybody...

Those races happand about I week ago...

I runed against:

LPE Z06 - 616 HP - I get a jump and at 80 mph or so he passes ME and pulls away...about 2-3 car in 1/4...his best time is 11.7 on our ****ty track, just regular payment...

599 GTB Fiorano - get jump on him, his 1st gear we get even, 2nd gear he pulls 1 car, 3 gear he pulls 2 cars, overall about 2 cars in 1/4...

997 GT3 - with this one I was very impressed, eventhough I mislaunched, it catapulted off the line like 4wd, did 12.1 in 1/4, and it totally stock...but he has Michelin Pilot CUP tyres...0-180 I couldnt catch him *** well...

221 S65 stock - no chance in 1/4 I beat him all the time ...did couple of rolling starts...at 60+...he would start pulling on ME after 140...0-180...he would only catch up at 170...

Evotech SL 650 HP - I beat him in 1/4 and we never raced till TOP end but I think he would catch up later cause of 2.82 diff, TCU, Cams and other mods he has...

Murcelliago Roadster - M5 580 Hp beat him after 140-145 mph...and it also beat S65 in rolling start...

and finally Evotech 700 HP SLR - nobody had any chances...its stupid fast at any speeds...

Here is the video it runs against LPE ZO6, 500 HP lightweight Nissan Sivilia, 580 HP M5 and others:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDx1-ImsdMQ

Even LPE had a jump, SLR quiclky catched up and runned away...same thing happen with rolling starts...

Here my run with SLR on the right and 580 HP M5 on the left, they both mislanched...M5 never catched up till 165 mph...but it was catching up, would probably catch ME atg 180 mph..

Adam,

Its all FUN...You should come and visit US...

Police comes and we $ort the problems out and leave

Soon there would more races with Carrera GT and other exotics like Zonda and Konessig CCX (not sure how is called correctly the 800Hp version)...

Did I mention before that M5 580HP with SS headers and Evotech ECU killed 997 turbo after 160 rolling start...and M6 with Evotech headers and slightly faster then M6 with SS headers, and they both have Evotech ECU...

So I need this TCU EGS to be faster on TOP...been told that witht tha mod car make more power at the wheels at higher RPMS 6800...

Great footage. The SLR came past you like you had the handbrake on, eventually.

Very quick 55 you have. What power are you putting down? Not surprised at high speeds a 580bhp beat a 997TT.

As for the Gallardo, I wonder what allanlambo would have to say about that. It wasn't even close.

Anyway, thanks for sharing

That is my dream...I wish I had the money for it...

Bone stock here costs over 180 K Euro which is about 240k USD here...

For that money I rather get a 3 year old 996 TT for US and Bentley GT we have low custom duties for 3 year old car...Around 16k for 3 old 55 or over 50k for less the 3 year old 55

Was it an 2006 Gallardo or older one? I raced both before and I kill the older one like the way u killed the Lambo in your video. However the 06 Gallardo is much, much faster and very close especially at higher speed.

And well done for staying ahead of the SLR for so long. If it was a 1/4 mile drag race you would have won!

Not sure not about which year Galliardo it was...

Sivilia...doesnt have interior and so on...very light and had drag radial I think...It got killed easy by SLR and LPE Z06 and 580 M5 passed it at 250km (155mph)...

My words exactly, it took 19 sec for the SLR to catch up. These cars have traction problems and in my opinnion putting more HP requires 4wheel drive. The SLR seems to loose in the beginning in all videos Ive seen and then pass the cars rediculosly fast. That sucks... although I love the car...

The one time I got lucky to go in an SLR I was shocked at its speed.... it just pegged me back in my seat and took off... vvv nice car - but wayyy overpriced.... should be half of what they ask for it.

Work of art though ALL CF body and the engine bay is just awesome ... with loads of space and massive radiators all over the place... the nice thing is the MB star section in the nose is an isolated air intake piece ...... very neat design that would be pretty handy to have in a E55...

Victor any ideas here ?

Nope - I think its looks pretty grippy. I think its temps ... too cold and the tarmac gets too hard and less grippy ... also any humidity on the track or worse any tranny/motor fluid and you're toast.

285's on that should do better than 12.5's I would say ... but at 18deg C ... hmmm dunno mbe you heatsoaking a bit during burnout -but then agn your traps are pretty good so you def making decent power.

Try pour some Coka Cola on the track where you do your burnouts ...
