Gidi<\/a> has done it again in his monstrous 2013 Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera Twin Turbo built by Underground Racing. The Alpha G<\/a> owner claimed the \u00bd mile world record speed at the recent Pikes Peak Airstrip Attack in Colorado Springs, CO organized by Shift S3ctor<\/a>.<\/p>\n His winning speed was a magical 240.64 mph in the 2300hp+ Lamborghini which broke the previous record set by KC Howeth at 238.6 mph back in Texas last year. Incidentally, Howeth had broken a previous record set by Gidi at 234 mph. What\u2019s even more intriguing about the new record is that it was set on elevated grounds, 1 mile above sea level making it significantly difficult to achieve those speeds. <\/p>\n Gidi was armed with both the Underground Racing Gallardo as well as his highly acclaimed Alpha G by AMS Performance.<\/a> Unfortunately, the 2500 hp Nissan GT-R hurt one of its clutch plates while testing LC to adjust for elevation on Saturday morning, forcing the team to pull it out of the event for further assessment. <\/p>\n
