Lots Of Sour Grapes About Performante 6.52 Ring Record

[Juno]

Well it started with all the nay sayers saying it was rubbish and hearsay and not true. Even now they have seen the video they still can't bring themselves to say well done!

So far I've read it's the USS Enterprise, it's a race car, it's got extra hidden aero, it's got dodgy tyres, it's NOTHING like the road car etc etc etc.

All this as they choke on their cornflakes

The Ring is a very public place and this was being watched with great interest by the Worlds media so the chances of Lamborghini turning up with a clone of a race car is going to be spotted!

You can see from the dash that it's not a stripped out racer!

I'm also sure that every other attempt from every other manufacturer will have also seen a few set up tweaks to gain the most out of the car!

Whatever the arguments it will be as close to the base car as any other future attempts by other manufacturer will be.

All said any car will need the basic DNA and that's been proved for sure!

I know Radical will be having another poke at it with the RCX which should in theory be much quicker, effectively a race car but it will be Road legal.

Anyway for now that's the record to be shot at, if I were heading up a manufacturer selling these types of cars and the armoury was available then I'd be at the Ring next week to beat the time, if I could that is?

So in conclusion for now at least it would be nice for people to say well done and if beaten some time soon buy the 720s or anything resembling a road car then the same applies!

So next stop Geneva

You're.

I'm only commenting in utter disbelief that you think there's something more you can possibly say about the bloody thing that you haven't already in any of the other multiple threads running.

I'm a Lamborghini owner but you sound like you've lost the plot recently. It's cringeworthy. RamboLambo seems restrained and open minded in comparison!

Oh and putting ten smilies in a post makes you actually look ten...

Yes. Read it. You will see I've been active on it. There was three threads already, you've created number four.

Bravo.

Jeeze Dude you really need to get a life, it's a forum you don't have to be here? Also don't compare me to someone when you have never met me!

Are there rules on posting subjects?

I like the car, I like what they have done and I'll say what I like when I like, End Of

And another http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a... So why don't you go P155 on there bonfires or is it just me you want to rant at ?

[PurpleAki]

I'd say the same thing to him except, he doesn't say the same stuff over and over again, day in day out, like you do.

Oh, and it's against the rules to post repetitively and deliberately evade the swear filter.

No. Regardless of whether the car in question was or was not a fair representation of the car buyers will ultimately receive, I think both the car and the lap time are an awesome achievement.

There is however already a bhing contest on the main thread and therefore creating a purposefully inflammatory thread is a tad

But again your on it so I don't understand ? Any threads I don't want to cobtruibute to I avoid but I don't tell the posters that they should NOT post and complain about there thread counts and content.

If I don't like something I move on!

[Juno]

Anyway changing the subject I'm just off the Lamborghini to pick up the Performante from service and MOT

Having read a few more of OP's comments I find myself in agreement with you and therefore retract my snide remark re grapes
