The flame-spitting blur that you see in the opening image of this post is, in fact, a 1 500 kW Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 crossing the one-mile finish line at 402 km/h at Russia’s Unlim 500+ event. And if you’re thinking that the flame from the exhaust looks a little larger than your average fuel overrun “pop”, it’s because this particular flame signalled the last breath that this highly-tuned Lambo engine would take.
Judging by the still intact Armco, this otherwise impressive Lamborghini Gallardo drag race took place before the heavens opened and the ill-fated Nissan GT-R run followed.
