UGR, eat your heart out. Heffner just owned you, if I recall right a 9.1 is Underground Racing's best time. I like their new kit design better than the old one too with the turbos up top as well as the new intake manifold setup.

Great to see 8`s from Hefner but I bet UGR will take a shot at it soon. We see Hefner`s group and cars at the Texas mile a lot . Hope they ship the lambo out here.

The UGR TT if I remember correctly did not launch as hard as the Heffner TT. I bet if they would have launched harder instead of rolling into the gas oh and let's not forget UGR's TT was on street tires none the less Heffner's TT had an amazing run!

You could tell that the car was still getting power. That is sick for sure.
Wonder who the driver was and if he was pro level which would have helped for sure. Underground has been put on notice !!!

Yeah, but they run R888s, those aren't exactly "street tires." Sticky R compound that offer great traction.

It is claimed that there is more boost (said to be 10psi) on the table though in the Heffner car, and this was their first time to the track with the car and don't forget that tranny slip in the last gear. That is worth a good bit I would say right there in itself.

They are all sick cars, but everyone just thinks UGR is the only TT Gallardo out there worth talking about, so it was interesting that Heffner did this laying it right in their face. Everyone knows how look at me UGR is with all their videos, so this one up I am sure was a big surprise for many.

As for above, John Heffner was driving the car.

The difference in the two times is all in the launch. Fast forward to 1:35, someone count the shifts the UGR crosses the line in 4th and Heffner's crosses in 5th
