Very sweet build, but apparently this car is nonexistent now. Very happy for the driver to be alive.

MikeyV · 10-25-2010, 01:24 PM

Happy to see the driver made it out alive.

I doubt this would have happened in a Veyron, the Gallardo was never designed with this speed in mind. Like I said previously stupid idea making this car and putting a driver in it that doesn't have the skills.

just proves what me and mikeyv were saying. although i wouldnt necessarily call it a stupid idea to make a gallardo this fast. just saying that its less likely this would happen to a veyron at those speeds. it could happen to any car in the end.

glad the driver was safe.

It was the parachute that made the car unstable. Also the 15-20mph crosswind will do that.

Which proves that the car wasn't built for this type of use.

The only reason he is alive is that the car was built for it. Full cage/5 Point harness/Hans Device/Suit/Helmet/Parachute/etc. etc.

Accidents happen when you push the limit.

If you ever have ridden in or driven a built Twin Turbo Gallardo, you know you are pushing the limits. Especially being 50mph faster through the mile traps than a Veyron. There is no other street legal car that can do what it does other than a heavily modded TT Ford GT which is even hairier being RWD.

Hey, if I was going to have to go out, it would be one hell of a way to do it.

When I watched the F1 race a little while ago, I saw quite a few cars crash out. They must not have been built for that type of use.
