As a fellow BMW owner I still have to doubt the results of this race. It
didn't appear that either car was working very hard and the Gallardo
should have no problem taking the M6 in that distance. Why the rolling
start?

The BMW V10 is an amazing engine but against a car that weighs maybe 900#
less it should be a much tougher race that they show.

New tow vehicle - '07 X5 4.8 coming soon!

BTW, Dan. Even though the video looks tame, you have to remember that when
they pass the cones at the start they are doing about 30 mph. At the end
(250 km/h) they are doing just over 155 mph. Count off the seconds.
