Last week, we showed you Underground Racing tweaking a Lamborghini Gallardo with a fully-customized Twin Turbo kit, which gave the Gallardo a staggering output of over 1500 horsepower. Putting their creation to the test, Underground Racing went down to Texas to participate in the Texas Mile Roll Race Event. Against a field of some pretty power-packed machines, the Gallardo laid waste to the competition on its way to winning the whole event.

Just goes to show that Underground Racing sure knows what it’s doing.
Check out the video for some of the Gallardo TTG’s runs against the competition.

Packing a monstrous 1500 horsepowered-engine, this Lamborghini Gallardo “Race Version” is unlike any Gallardo you’ve ever seen in your lifetime.

Fine-tuned by Underground Racing for one of its clients, the twin-turbo Gallardo – called the TTG – is the personification of a monster on wheels. While 1500 horsepower is staggering enough, if you account for the drivetrain loss, the horsepower should spike up even more to around 1900 hp. Staggering, isn’t it?

After completing the modifications, Underground Racing gave Jonah – the owner of the car – the keys to the wheels – so he could give his new amped up baby a ride. The result? A sub-ten second time through a quarter mile at speeds of well over 160 mph. Unbelievable!

Here’s a video of the TGG being undergoing the modifications. Hear that monster roar!
