AMAZING! It's a 1st - 2nd - 3rd gear in a 50 kmh zone, but I suppose third gear can stretch up to 200 kmh :D maybe we didn't get that high, but it was pretty damn fast :shock:

More pics from today will come soon!!

:P Great experince TT! So fast so fast :? ...that make sence? Thanx for vid TT :wink:

OMG :shock: :shock: :shock:

Consider yourself very lucky!!!!! :D

How and where did you get this dream ride???????? :o Can't wait for the pics!!!

Why can't I ever have a ride in a supercar :bah:

:shock: You are one lucky motherf***er!!! :D

Why did you get a ride in a Murcielago?

Can't wait to see the pictures!!

BTW - Thanks for the video TT!

THX, greatt experience, btw tell us story, switzerland is best country for supercars

Please tell us more about that :D Why did you get this ride ? And thanks for the vid :wink:

Well, it was Lambo open doors in the other dealership ;) not as many cars as the last time, but still nice! My aim was a ride in Valentino's Gallardo, but since he was busy :bah: (but I have pics with me and him this time ;))
As for the "how", it's a little secret ;)

WOW, lambo open doors, impossible here

''how'' - not with help of Jabba ?

Nope, with some help for sure and thanks to some coincidences, but not Jabba's ;)

But really, I can't tell details about it to protect the persons involved :D

ok, that doesnt matter, nice experience for sure, BTW i heard that gallardo have in interior audi parts, did you saw somethink? but maybe you couldnt , 500 hp and great sound are interestink too much ...


EDIt > saw video, acceleration is incredible

Cant wait for to see pics of TT and Valentino :P

Sadly the pics with me and Valentino are in a friend's camera :D

Actually it was a Murci, not a Gallardo :D

Re: Passenger in a Murcielago
 

Congrats TT...but why is it I can never get those videos to download ?

well from inside is hard to tell, it look same,

Re: Passenger in a Murcielago
 

I had the same problem, you have to click on the "Free" button and then wait about 64 seconds to get the link :wink: I hope I correctly understood your "problem" :P

ahhh...thanks Yann......

Well for some reason I can't download the video from that site, says something about my IP been blocked :?: But anyway, it must have been cool in the lambo :)

I think there is a limit you can download daily, if you dlded something today from rapidshare than try tommorow or so :wink:

I wish I had your luck only one time TT... :roll: Thanks for the video! The experience must be impressive!!

Hmmm... i can't seem to ge the vid from here either.

Anyone fancy putting it into the vault for us.... or hosting it somewhere else :(

Thx

Re: Passenger in a Murcielago
 

What an experience dude :D great sound and jsut a HUGE sense of speed !! that guy is a total nutcase driver, just fantastic to see :D even managed to hold the camera steady somehow :lol:


By any chance are either of you NTL cable customers? or does your ISP also use a proxy? Mine does which prevents me from downloading these, got this from an alternative source :P, probably could get round it by bypassing and using another proxy, but that may of course have the same problems :roll:

Yea, i can't seem to get any files from rapidshare either? Letting the page just sit for ages, refreshing it, clicking the "free" download button at the bottom.. Any ideas? More importantly, an alternate source for TT's vid - that's what i'm after. Sounds rediculous.

I am editing the first post with a proper url for you all ;)

And here are some pics of that Murci:

I get up on a Sunday morning only to find TT has been in another supercar - you really must be blessed :D
I can only dream of opportunities like this........
Congrats though it surely must have been a great day - what was better the Miura or Murci ride? :P

I never had a Miura ride, it would kill all the other supercars experience for sure. If you wanted to ask Enzo vs Murcielago, well, the Murcielago felt a bit more brutal because of the manual transmition and since the tester was really giving it the stick, the upshifts where not that smooth, just POWER... CHUNK, BANG, POWER.... and so on. In the Enzo it is smoother, but smooth isn't the world, every upshift still kicks you in the butt badly. But well, the Enzo felt a bit better. Maybe because of the exclusivity, I don't know. Definitely, performancewise, you can't really feel that big of a difference.. with the old Diablo yes, definitely it felt older, slower in every reaction and in pure acceleration, but Enzo and Murci are a bit too close to tell without the number in front of you. But well, since in both cars I had a rough 0-200 or almost, I am pretty sure the Enzo felt definitely keener in reaching the big numbers. But well, again, impossible to tell, especially since you can never be sure if the driver is really flooring it or not

BTW, what model was the Diablo you had a ride in - the original 2WD?

Yes I know, I think I didn't make my question clear.....I meant did you enjoy seeing another Miura (which you love so much) more than having a ride in the Murcielago :wink:
Both are pretty rare experiences :D

holy shit .. you went out with valentino .... you lucky bastard !!!
hes the only person imo who can scare the shit out of clarkson every single day of the year ... lol congrats dude ..... im sure u will get a muira ride someday :)
anyways .... dingo .. offcorse he enjoyed the muira ..... this time he had someone who could explain everything abt it with him :mrgreen: :wink:

:shock: :shock: :shock:

TT, you lucky bastard... 8) I am so jealous right now. I'd love to see more pictures of that day. Did Balboni recognise you from when he signed the model for you?

Re: Passenger in a Murcielago
 

Yes i am an NTL customer :?
I have never actually successfully downloaded anything from Rapidshare :roll:

Thanks, TT, for hosting the vid for us... now i'll get down to watching it :)

Re: Passenger in a Murcielago
 

What a beast that murci is! thanks for the pic update dude :D and of course you couldn't go on a lambo day without sniffing out a muira :D





yeh you never will unless you are lucky :lol:, as it sees everyone who's trafiic is routed through that proxy as the same person :lol: Anyway, another proxy might work, but it has to use a port other than 80 in order to bypass the ntl one, TBH generally i can't be arsed! :P

Holy shit TT :shock:.. I'm always sooooo jealous :P.. You also had a ride in a Enzo and now the Murcie.. Lucky bastard 8)

Re: Passenger in a Murcielago
 

Yeh... fuck that. Port 80 and all that crap :P

Nice little clip there TT 8) It sure sounds as furious as the Enzo, but i know what you mean when you say it isn't as smooth, and, rightly so, who wants smooth? :twisted:

You are one lucky guy.... i'm jealous :oops:

Yes it was a 2WD

Uhm, close call.. I saw two new Miuras and had a Murci ride in the same day... and since the Miuras were inside and not on the road, I think the Murci ride was even cooler!

Sorry, you misunderstood me. Valentino was busy so I went out with another Italian tester, not him and his Gallardo

Of course he did, and this time I asked to be taken in picture with him, in front of the Miura WTF :D

And I met him today too.. here:

:shock:

Dude :shock: That looks like heaven :shock:

Bloody hell!!!! I think you will get bored of Lambo's soon - you see too many :P
I see an SE30 :love: can't wait for some pics of that :D

wow you are so damn lucky ... muira valentino balboni ride in the murcielago ... :faint:
theres somehting fishy abt a muira a TT and valentino togather :? :drool: :D

haha ..... i doubt it :lol:

Saadie, sometimes I wonder if it's my english or yours the problem.

I DIDN'T WENT FOR THE RIDE WITH VALENTINO. He was BUSY, so I went with ANOTHER driver :P

As for the others, do you really think somebody could get tired of seeing nice cars? Impossible :D

lol .... i got it when u said tht u didnt get a ride with valentino .. lol .... :P
imo its my english :mrgreen:
what i meant was
first time
you met valentino and u had a muira
second time
you met valentino and were standing with a muira :wink:

What's going on in Switzerland?? :shock:

You guys obviously have too many Lambos over there, so go on, hand them over, the UK doesn't mind looking after a few for you :wink:

Just noticed that the Diablo owners are looking for new wheels, the red one with the stock Murcie rims, and the black onw eith the roadster wheels. The look bloody gorgeous, but it is a bit "pretender-ish" to have those rims on an older car. A bit like a 355 with 360 rims :?

IMO it's nice, and it's not that they couldn't afford a Murcielago. They just love their Diablos, they are friends and work together as far as I understood. They both wanted to upgrade the different wheels and IMO the result is very nice :D

Last preview pic from today, I know dingo wanted to see it ;)
http://img230.echo.cx/img230/5295/la...lo063ly.th.jpg

now I really need to finish the edit so I can post tonight the pics from yesterday and later this week the ones from today.

I am speechless... I can't breath... :shock:

I agree... the wheels look great on the Diablo... the car never looks old (apart from the really old ones :P )

And that SE30 is gorgeous... i think i can count the number of Lambos i have ever seen on my two hands... yet you've seen easily 3x as many in only one day.

About the video BTW, maybe some other expert has something to say about it, but KLD told me in his opinion it should be closer to 240 kmh than 200.. and well, he is kinda expert in this sort of things :shock:

What's next? I aim at the CGT, but as you can see, such things are rarely planned :D they just happen! :D

Yes it is Gstaad, same place where another meeting will be held next month ;)

Must have been an aswome ride with Valentino driving, thanks for the video too

A bit late it seems... What can say...? Congrats man. :D

And thanks for the video and the pics.

Wow, how could I missed this thread. Just awesome. You can really feel the speed in the vid!! Juste stunning to see.

Dude, I tried to repeat it 10 times in this topic: IT WASN'T Valentino at the wheel!!!! :lol:

LMAO....you should've just said it was Valentino driving, no one seems to understand that it wasn't :P

Ah, so was it Valentino driving? Shit I thought it was another guy :P

WOW!!! a ride with valentino balboni you are soooo lucky :D :D
