It has that resonating whine, similar to my 123 diesel at 70 mph!

Sounds real mean, like a proper track car!

I wonder how much that upgrade costs? Bet thats a $400k car.

Makes the stock one seem kind of tame.

If you search "Lamborghini fire" on Youtube, quite a few videos come up!

A little bit beefier than a stock rig but I wonder where the microphone was during the taping because the F430 sounds much different on the inside than outside.

My Renntech funds went to the W123 wagon. Maybe next summer.

Hattie, I'm driving Ted's 600 right now. He loaned it to me and said I could use it as long as I wanted.

Sure. $100/day.

I don't even drive it much anymore. The diesel is a helluva lot more fun, at least around town. Highway travel is very loud.
