Underground Racing TT Huracan UR8- build up and review

[Lambofan35]

Weight check:

So the wife went to bed tonight and I was anxious to do something to the car, so I pulled out my trusty longacre corner balance scales. Me and my buddy have weighed every car we have bought and if it had coilovers, we would corner balance them as well. It made a huge difference on my last gallardo in terms of balancing steering. Some times I get lucky from just eyeballing the suspension height and it gets pretty close.

My 2006 twin turbo wide body gallardo with a bunch of carbon fiber parts including seats and lightweight battery, ccb front brakes, light weight rear brakes, came in right around 3500lbs including the 24 gallons of fuel in the tank filled to the top.

My old 2014 Nissan GT-R mostly stock, downpipes, catted midpipe, intakes, carbon ceramic brakes, and 20” vorsteiner wheels came in at 3793lbs filled with close to a full gas tank. Stock catback exhaust

My old 2015 Bmw m3 with carbon ceramic brakes and downpipes, no other weight saving mods came in at 3598lbs with full gas tank.

I figured my new 2016 huracan twin turbo would be at say 3475lbs since it’s half carbon and aluminum frame, has coilovers, and the lightest aluminum wheels HRE makes which are about the same as the new ford gt carbon fiber wheels....


Well I was definitely wrong= 3736lbs for just the car the way it sits. OMG!


It’s time to start the weight saving mods, this is 60lbs lighter than my stockish GTR. Don’t believe all the hype about cars being light without checking the scales. I’m sure the race seats and battery will save me a lot of weight in this car. I bet the performante stock as is with comfort seats is the about the same weight. Which btw just means this car is more impressive than I thought considering it’s lugging around 250lbs more than my old gallardo, lol.
