VIDEO: Driver Smacks Lamborghini Gallardo on Curve, Blames Broken Shoe Heel
A twin-turbocharged Lamborghini Gallardo tuned by Underground Racing received an unwanted...facelift when the driver smashed the Italian supercar on a curve at the Caffeine and Octane event in Georgia this past weekend. A forum member who appears to be a friend of the car’s owner uploaded several photos and a description of the crash over at the Car Lounge.
According to the post, the blame is put on the driver’s shoe heels that “came loose and as he stepped on the brakes, the loose part stayed partially on the gas”. A set of videos showing the crash as it happened as well as the aftermath, which translates in a broken rear suspension, wheel damage and some minor body scruffs, also made their way online. You can watch them right after the break.

VIDEO: Disgruntled Lamborghini Owner Hires People to Destroy his Gallardo!
If you haven’t heard, March 15 is World Consumer Rights Day. So what a better way to celebrate the day if not by expressing discontent with poor customer service? At least that's what a Lamborghini Gallardo owner from China chose to do, with his shocking protest having every chance to cause reactions as far away as Sant'Agata Bolognese, Italy.
We all have our unfortunate experiences as consumers, but I think none of us would have the heart to do what this man did. After his Lamborghini Gallardo failed to function following a service at an official Lamborghini workshop, he decided to protest in public.
And what was his idea of a protest, we hear you ask? Brace yourselves - he hired people to destroy the sports car with hammers right in front of a large audience in the city of Qingdao, China, in an attempt to provoke public support and to determine the manufacturer to respect his consumer rights!

Lamborghini Gallardo Pics
The Gallardo offers two choices of transmissions, a conventional (H-Box) six-speed manual transmission, and an advanced six-speed electro-hydraulically controlled semi-automatic robotized manual, which Lamborghini abbreviates to “E-gear”. The “E-gear” allows the driver to make shifts much faster than a manual transmission would. The driver shifts up and down via paddles behind the steering wheel, and does not and cannot manually actuate the clutch.

Lamborghini Crafts Gallardo Tricolore Special in Celebration of Italy’s 150th Anniversary of Unification
This year Italy is celebrating 150 years since its unification, an event that a Italian symbol like Lamborghini couldn't ignore. To honor the event, the super car maker will build a special edition of the Gallardo called the Tricolore. The name pays tribute to the Italian flag, which decorates the car in the form of a three-colored stripe that stretches across the hood, the driver's seat and the roof in a way that reminds of the LP550-2 Valentino Balboni edition.

Underground Racing Twin-Turbo Lamborghini Gallardo Gets Respect
The Underground Racing Lamborghini Gallardo has it all. On display at the Mobil 1 booth, the Italian exotic not only sports a matte-black paint job, but it’s what’s under the glass engine cover out back that will really get your attention.
There you will find what Underground Racing has become famous for, a twin-turbo kit. The North Carolina tuner builds each twin-turbo application specifically to the needs wants of the customer, with output ranging from 1,000-hp to 1,500-hp. And don’t think it’s as simple as two big turbos and some shiny metal piping either, the team at UR will tear down and rebuild an engine to ensure maximum performance and longevity, with new cylinder heads, CP Race Pistons, Carrillo billet con rods and lots of other hard core parts.
The result, claims UR, is a 0-60 mph time of just 2.5 seconds, with a quarter mile pass taking just 9.1 seconds at 169 mph! The company also claims a speed of 241 mph in a mile, with a top speed of 257 mph.
Not only was the UR matte-black twin-turbo Gallardo getting respect with a huge draw at the Mobil 1 booth, but according to Jesse Poole at Mobil 1’s PR agency Theory PR, the car was also nominated in the Gran Turismo awards, where the Best of Show car gets digitized and immortalized in an upcoming Gran Turismo video game.
