219mph in a Murcielago

VIDEO: Lamborghini Murcielago Reaches 219 MPH on a Freeway in Arizona! (The Torque Report)

Worlds ugliest Lamborghini goes 219mph (I am aware of speedometer error) on an Arizona highway.

With Zaino, he would have done 225mph..

Re: 219mph in a Murcielago

Damn homie!

I can't imagine getting passed that fast. Not one road in my area is even close to as optimal to do such a thing (probably better off!).


edit: That fly-by is UNREAL!

Re: 219mph in a Murcielago

At those speeds he would have been traveling 19,272 feet per second.

This is 3.65 miles per second or 53.53 football fields per second.

Basically, if anything happened, they would've been dead before they would've even realized something was wrong.

I can't even begin to speak of the stupidity of this, but honestly, it was pretty ballsy to watch. And yes, I agree, that flyby was absolutely UNREAL!

And lol @ the Murcielago being ugly. Good joke there.

Re: 219mph in a Murcielago

When he did that fly by at 180mph. It just sounded awesome. Like a jet flying by.

But then again, thats just stupid.

Don't remember that one... I know they flew by a car at 211mph. But never had one of those outside camera fly by besides that 180mph one I believe. Could be wrong LoL

I think you've got your calculation's a little off there. 3.65 miles per second is the same as 13,140 mph. Maybe you meant 1 mile every 3.65 seconds which is still off at 986 mph. At 219mph he would cover 1 mile in 16.4 seconds or 1/4 mile at 4.1 seconds which is still pretty darn fast.

LOL! Talk about error, you're so right

Should be 321.19999999999824 feet per second. So almost a football field per second.
