Anyone here know of a civic that can beat a Lamborghini? mostwanted Sep 15th, 09, 07:27 PM #1 (permalink)
I was with my friend at Mackenzie road which is just off selegie road..and we were walking down it when i saw this lamborghini gallardo cut off a civic..so the civic guy pulls up next to the lambo and honks..the lambo guy responds by revving his engine..

Next thing we see is both the cars downshift and take off and the gallardo was eating the civic's dust!
Both car were flooring it and the civic was a good 5-8ft ahead of the lambo...

I was honestly amazed at seeing a civic modified like that!!

Dude a big electric motor will eat a internal combustion engine anytime. The only limiting factor is usually chassis and drivetrain stress tolerance. Electric motors generate instant torque, unlike internal combustion engines. Loads of it too.

too subjective to call a winner. but in all cases, give it another 100m and the lambo will be way ahead.

a heavily modded civic lol... whats the point....

1stly it pobably be more uncomfortable and noiser than the lambo..
2ndly the car will not see its light again when TP opens the bonnet...

most importantly... heavily modded civic vs stock lambo... I wanna see it go against a modded super car e.g Novitec Rosso Ferrari F430

YouTube - FERRARI ENZO VS. NOVITEC FERRARI F430 BI-COMPRESSOR

Go straight 70% driver 30% car... Go track =) More on Skills

Comparing modified car against stock car, modified sure to win. Got some youtube videos showing night racing in Korea. Heavily modified Tuscani winning exotics.

i side the civic

the fun thing is the mod part & getting experience into doing it, eventually asking for more. hence, more mods ! illegal or not is not a point anymore.

its different from rich boys 1 time 1 car... seems like local news report super car crash more than tiong chia ?

no offense, to me people who buy lambos only know how to show off how deep their pockets are and never really take into consideration performance or anything to do with driving. so they are basically noobs who make good noise. might be a bit blunt but that's my opinion.
