Never driven a race car that would corner, but a long time ago I had a funny car that had the engine bolted solidly to the frame and it shook the hell out of everything.

I was just surprised at how harsh that Lambo was, considering it is still a street car. Makes me wonder how harsh some Ferraris are--BTW, Mr. Lambo used to work for Enzo, and left to start his own company, telling Enzo he would build a better car.

I was so tempted to take my Vette (200 MPH nitroused 440 cu. in. bored 427, roller cam and rockers-gear driven, Doug Nash 5 speed with much better bearings [NASCAR max. fill type], 2.72 rear) over to northern Italy when I was assigned there for 6+ years (non-military). But at 12 MPG and gas costing ~$5/gal, I sold it rather than pay to store it.

I had a rear license plate frame that said "Try Again, Porsche Lover".

Sounds like a pretty badass vette. As I said, I'm a vette lover, and WILL own one, one day. It's just a matter of when. . . Haha. Again, I wasn't bashin on the vette at all. Just a comparison thing. Just wanted to make sure it was clear I wasn't bashin.

OK, I didn't take offense. Actually the Vette had a fairly mild streetable hydraulic roller cam, which was a huge improvement over ~4 other flat tappet cams I had tried. Only thing I couldn't do was get decent gas mileage--it needed FI instead of a big Holley. I ran the primaries as lean as I could, and richened up the secondaries.

Torque output was sorta like a Busa-no hesitation at all. Even at 100+ MPH the front end would lift somewhat when I nailed it. I ran "blower" grade pistons, full-floating shot-peened rods and of course a cross-drilled forged crank. Ported the alum. heads myself--they were closed-chamber, not open as I would have liked. I did buy a new set of "D" port open-chamber alum. heads for it, but never installed them--would have needed new pistons and rebalancing too.

Car was fully streetable, and the gear drive for the cam made a whine that guys thought was a blower. Fun car, didn't cost all that much, and never hit or got hit by anything.

The newer Vettes make much more sense these days--comfort, good mileage, very good performance--again, just like a Busa!

Not quite: Ferruccio Lamborghini owned a tractor manufacturing company. He was fairly successful, and decided to buy a Ferrari 250. He had transmission problems with it and took it to the factory to complain, repeatedly. Finally Enzo got involved, essentially told Ferruccio that he was a peasant, and wouldn't understand the workings of a car as fine as his Ferraris. Lamborghini was offended by that, and proceeded to start his own car company.

By the way, you can still buy a brand new lamborghini tractor today...

I saw some of them when I was over there. Look just like a tractor. I used to ride a commuter train down into Milano. Diesel powered. 5 speed--with a freakin' air-operated clutch! Took ~3-4 seconds to shift. Yup, another gem made by FIAT!
