Typically, when an automaker and a watchmaker team up, it's to spec out a special-edition watch. But Lamborghini and Blancpain have already done that. The two marques are also behind the Super Trofeo racing series, which Lamborghini claims is the fastest spec racing series on today's circuits. The season just wrapped up at Vallelunga, where the two companies took the wraps off the new Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Blancpain Edition.

The special-edition Lambo is distinguished from the standard model with such unique touches as a vented engine cover and a big rear wing, along with carbon fiber parts, Skorplus wheels and carbon-ceramic brakes. A matte black finish with yellow accents further set its apart inside and out. The most interesting spec however, is the Blancpain Edition's weight; at 2954 pounds, Sant'Agata lauds it as the lightest vehicle in Lamborghini's roadgoing range. Couple that with the 5.2-liter V10 boosted to 570 horsepower (like the spec racers) and Lambo claims a 3.4-second sprint to 62 mph from a standstill, topping out a hair under the double-century mark.

We're on our way to Paris to get a closer look at this among the myriad other excitements making their debut later this week.

Lamborghini Launches Gallardo LP570-4 Blancpain Limited Edition


Lamborghini has teamed up with Swiss luxury watchmaker Blancpain to create a limited edition version of its Gallardo supercar that pays homage to the Lamborghini Blancpain Super Trofeo racing cars. As you may have guessed, Blancpain is the title sponsor of the one-make racing series.

Finished in a black paintwork, the road-legal Gallardo LP 570-4 Blancpain Edition adopts the racing model's Countach-sized rear-wing and unique engine cover which is said to offer improved ventilation.

The car also gets Skorpius alloy wheels with yellow-painted brake calipers and discs made from carbon-ceramic composite, while several external components, such as the diffuser and mirror casings are made from carbon-fiber.

The racing atmosphere continues in the interior which is finished in black Alcantara with yellow accents and visible carbon-fiber.

As with the Super Trofeo race car, propulsion for the all-wheel drive model comes from the 5.2-liter V10 with 570-horsepower found in the series production Gallardo Superleggera.

Lamborghini says the Blancpain Edition tips the scales (dry) at 1340 kilograms (2954 lb) making it "the lightest road-going model in Lamborghini's range." Not to nitpick, but that's not entirely true as the Gallardo LP 570-4 Superleggera has the same exact weight. So to be precise, it shares the title with the Superleggera.

Power-to-weight ratio of the vehicle stands at 2.35 kilograms (5.18 lb) per hp with the Blancpain completing the standard zero to 100 km/h (0-62 mph) sprint in 3.4 seconds and reaches the 200 km/h (124 mph) mark only 6.8 seconds later (10.2''). Top speed exceeds 320 km/h (199 mph).

There is no word on pricing or availability of the Gallardo LP 570-4 Blancpain Edition as of this time.

Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera

Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera

The American tuning studio Underground Racing is well-known basically for that specialises on transformation various super cars in extreme semiracing monsters. A basis undertakes, for example, Dodge Viper, Chevrolet Corvette or Ferrari F430 then the minimum changes are made to a weather-cloth. The suspender is exposed as to small alteration, but the engine is pumped in by steroids to monstrous indicators. Last characteristic for Underground Racing creation – "pumped over" Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera.

Americans have fitted to 5,2-litre "ten" two turbines, have slightly finished cooling and release system then capacity of the power unit increased to 1500 h.p. The car have been sent on racing line "The Texas Mile" where it could dispersed to 403 km/h. And,"Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera"could show and a great speed but the matter is that "The Texas Mile" is a former airdrome with rather small runway. The most curious that, despite such powerful and dynamic characteristics, "pumped over" in Underground Racing Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera is intended not only for arrivals on runways, but also for public roads.
