        VIDEO #1: Lambo Vs M5 in Twisties

        This is the first clip of much longer footeage that I'm working on

        This is from a run in a twisty section of road which best brings out the handling characteristics of the M5 matching up against the Lambo

        I dont think those vids are an accurate protrayal of the handling of the two cars. Neither was bening pushed anywhere near the limit. A gallardo would own an M5 on a track.

        This video shows that the M5 has better high-speed acceleration (which we knew already) and that the Lambo driver was unwilling to go faster than the M5's abilities around blind corners with trees and traffic and without runoff areas. All this seems to prove is that the Lambo driver was not completely insane because the limit in this situation has almost nothing to do with the physical limitations of the car.

        Also, please drive carefully. My cousin is in critical condition because some fucking idiots were racing on a 2 way street and hit her head on as she was making a right turn in the T intersection.
        Take it to the tracks, bros!
