Very cool on track vid. After watching a couple of times I noticed how the driver was flicking the wheel stalk to reset the sport chrono display in PCM as he crossed the finish line. Couldn't make out all of the data that was being shown on screen. I've seen a pic of that display somewhere...

That's really stupid. Driving this car at high speed and recklessly through crowded urban streets. Irresponsible and not at all cool.

Yeah--the car was running in the sweet spot most of the video. The sound...

I dunno, seemed like he lost too much momentum and let the revs drop too much in the corners.

I really don't understand the reasoning behind the purchase of a nice sports car in Brazil.. It's like buying a cheetah and putting it in a cage.

One funny anecdote.. The Lamborghini dealership is in an area, which while nice is literally impossible for a Lamborghini to drive in. The roads are are so rough, that you can't drive the car out of the dealership.. Needs to be trucked away. Also, after dark, forget it.. Insane to even be out for a a few hrs.. Car and owner would end up badly.

Love that country, but it's so full of non-sensical social problems
