We’ve recently showed you the drag racing action going on at the TX2K14 event in Texas, with the daytime play at the strip being matched with illegal street racing at night. We are back with yet another street racing clip, as it seems that the biggest of the big boys also took the battle to the street.
The footage below shows what happens when a twin-turbo Lamborghini Gallardo battles it out with a heavily modified Nissan GT-R. The Lambo was takes all the way to 1,800 hp, while the GT-R plays a respectable 1,500 hp card.
The Raging Bull is nicknamed “Goliath of the street race world” and we suspect that the driver’s main aim is to make sure the GT-Rs do not reach the title.
We do not, in any form, condone such activities. Still, the sheer soundtrack of the video is enough to put on a show, with the two supercars plunging into the night from a rolling start.
Speaking of the Gallardo - GT-R battle, we want to remind you that the the Lambo took the crown during the official TX2K14 action. As for the manner in which things were settled on the street, you can find this out behind the “play” button below.
