Lamborghini Balboni on track

[Deacon]

I went to Prodrive today and had a play in a Lamborghini Balboni. Very nice. Few pics anyway:-













Foot to the floor in 5th was, hmmm, entertaining

Fluckin rapid! Although surprisingly easy to drive. It kind of felt like a normal car - just.that when in a normal car you'd be doing 70 i n that you were doing 150+! :-)

I'll be in a V8 Vantage this Sunday coming.

What was the guy next to you like? Telling you how to drive, or offering insights. One guy from work said he could barely "drive" the car as he went for a Ferrari one and said he had more fun in his Polo down the M54. lol.

He was ok. He basically told you when to change gear and when to brake. They generally want you to change up quite early (5k in the lambo) as obviously they want to preserve the cars. I got away with 6odd krpm a few times though (seemed rude not to!)

To be honest with a £2k excess to pay it was hardly a case of drive it like you stole it! Still bloody good fun though!
