Lambo-Racing Team repeated success of 2006
Lamborghini Gallardo finished the 24 hours again
Untermerzbach (Germany), June 11, 2007 - The 37th starting position due to a ABS defect problems did not satisfy us. Because of a – thanks god, only a small – gear box problem in the pre-lap we had to start from the pit lane and to queue at the end of the first starting group. At 23:30 we dropped back about ten positions due to a tire damage. The cause for this was a part we picked up lying on the circuit. Half a round we had to drag ourselves through the circuit with this damaged tire. After a racing distance of 16 hours we were ranked on promising 16th position with potential forward, because the teams placed better than us had inferior lap-times. In our class SP8 we were positioned at this time on the second place behind the Dodge Viper and had a lead of three rounds over the team on third position. Then we unfortunately got again problems with our gear box electronic, which we could not solve despite several attempts. The last 1 ˝ hours we only drove in the fourth gear. So we end up on 42nd over-all position. In our class SP8 we could maintain the second place due to the lead we had.
We are happy and proud that we finished the 24h-race the second time in series with our Lamborghini Gallardo.
