2011SVT Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Looks like it's out in front of Limited Brands at 270/Morse. Anyone we know? http://www.zero2turbo.com/2013/04/crash-of-week-22nd-april-2013.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sledhead36 Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Yup, A buddy of mine. He disconnected his front drive shaft at the advice of CTD to make it RWD......apparently not a good idea. He is unhurt, but he ego is bruised. He is a good guy but cold tires got the best of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miller Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 David can disconnect his driveshaft because he's a fatty. Any other Lamborghini driver should leave that alone. Glad he's ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Bastard Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Was the car at stock HP? Also the fb page says rwd conversion, but is that just removing the driveshaft (doesn't seem like much of a conversion to me)? I am glad your friend is okay, is he planning on rebuilding the car or has he not decided yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc1647545523 Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 All lessons come at a price. Fortunately his was a relatively inexpensive one (just money and some pride). It makes me wonder what the liability limit is on CTD's insurance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sledhead36 Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 If someone tells you or recommends you do this, you automatically assume liability by doing so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Brian Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 I don't understand why converting it to rwd makes it an instant death trap, there are other rwd cars in the world.. I mean unless the conversion specifically on a lambo is something that does make them super unsafe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it throws the traction control off (maybe disables it entirely?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Alex- Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 None of those RWD cars were designed to be AWD cars. Kinda what I was thinking. Also, maybe the owners get brave with the AWD not knowing the car is taking care of most of their hooning, then go to RWD and try the same stuff thinking they can handle it.

I mean unless the conversion specifically on a lambo is something that does make them super unsafe? Millions of dollars and years of development went into producing a top-notch performance car with a certain set of specifications. Why people feel the need to mess with success without considering the ramifications and addressing them is beyond me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
