UnderGround Racing has put together two of the most powerful supercars for a little one on one racing action. The participants are a standard Gallardo LP 570-4 Superleggera and an Underground Racing creation: a twin turbo Ferrari F430 Spider.

The Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Superleggera weighs in at around 154 pounds less than the Gallardo LP 560-4. The 5.2 liter V10 engine delivers an incredible 570 hp. The result is a sprint from 0 to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds, from 0 to 124 mph in only 10.2 seconds later, and a top speed that goes up to 202 mph. That’s more than impressive, right?

But wait! Its opponent, the Ferrari F430 is even more impressive. With the addition of a turbo system with modified engine it delivers an impressive 750 HP on standard fuel and 1000 HP on race fuel. So, who do you think will win the competition?

Underground Racing is well known by now for its Twin-Turbo models. And while last time the tuner customized a Lamborghini, this time turned their attention to another Italian sports car: a Ferrari F430 Spider.

Thanks to a new Twin-Turbo Systems the F430’s V8 engine delivers an impressive 1000 hp (up from a standard 485 hp). The tuner revealed no details on the car’s performances, but we have big expectation from it.

Stay tuned for more details!

Video after the jump.

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!
