We love to talk about how driving a supercar is an occupation that has no age, and we're back with a rather impressive example of this. Spoiler alert: it all involves one of the hottest Gallardo editions Lamborghini has produced.
We're talking about the grandmother in the piece of footage below, who drives a Gallardo Super Trofeo Stradale. In fact, according to the uploader of the YouTube clip, the woman owns the Raging Bull.

The footage shows the granny, who happens to be wearing a Lamborghini t-shirt and proper driving shoes, taking her V10 supercar to the gas station, right before allowing the machine to guzzle the dynosaur juice on the track.

The elderly driver shows the kind of circuit pace many young drivers aren't capable of and the story doesn't even stop here. Although it's difficult to tell just by listening to the soundtrack of a clip, it seems like this STS has a custom exhaust.

Oh, and let's not forget the Blancpain stickers on the car - a reference to the Lamborghini Blancpain Super Trofeo racing series, which is where this Gallardo edition traces its roots to.

In fact, the STS has a pretty interesting story. Sure, we're dealing with the street version of the Gallardo Super Trofeo racer, but the track-confined machine was developed starting from the Gallardo Superleggera road car.

Then again, when the result of such a circle is a machine that delivers extreme sensations, whether we're talking about velocity thrills or aural treats, who can complain? (you can check out our Gallardo Super Trofeo Stradale review for more details).

We'll take the time to remind you this driver happens to enjoy one of the only 150 Super Trofeo Stradale units ever produced. And yes, that color is called Rosso Mars and it was introduced to the Lamborghini range by this model.
