That was amazing really, It was a very nice car.

Considering it is a V8 twin turbo? It's absolutely mind-blowing as Jeremy put it.

Yes it was a fluoro green Murcielago

Would have been good to see it if Hammond was driving the Lambo eh cos he doesn't hold back in the supercars. It was highly noticable that JC was training the Evo but the guy in the Lambo was being soft on it

Anything can be as fast as a supercar- as long as the supercar is driving slow enough  :)

so true, i think the track suited the characteristics of an evo more than that of a lambo too (it seemed pretty tight). This knid of brings me ask why bother if your not going to test them both equally and wring out a supercar like its a demo evo  ::)

Too true, treat them both like old stolen Jappas

Lambo probably wouldn't have all that turbo lag either!

Even if the evo was quicker round the track, the Lambo is still wayyy cooler...

I still reckon those highly tuned turbo 4 bangers will be riddled with problems, especially once the warranty has run out and some poor fool buys it!
