So it’s definitely something that’s do-able, but probably more work than most people would want to do ---

There’s a guy over on Stanceworks with a Murcielago that recently documented his clutch problems and replacement. looks like a fun job > [@some pics of my cobra](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/some-pics-of-my-cobra/76204/43): > > For the past 6 months my clutch has been releasing at the top of the pedal, so I knew it was on its way out, but I kept pushing it because… why not? In the midst of my half-mile drag racing fun my clutch let go. Specifically, it exploded on a 2-3 shift. > > Luckily a friend, with a trailer, was at the event and he took my car to his shop. So the clutch job, miscellaneous maintenance and mods aren’t t being done by me. :alright On the flipside, this shit ain’t cheap. Here are some pictures of the teardown, which is also waterboarding my wallet. > [@76 280z L28et swapped](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/76-280z-l28et-swapped/62762/9): > > [@white out"](#): > > Car is being cleaned up, some before/after shots > > ^^ yes, that’s clutch shrapnel sitting on top of the trans > > different filters, but you get the idea ---

I drove one of these today at Ralph Wilson stadium. It was pretty damn sweet! I didn’t get much of a chance to really check out the interior/exterior though. The sound those V-10’s make is just incredible. ---

The one I drove was paddle shifted. I’m not sure of the year either. They had a Ferrari 430 there as well, but it looked like a handful to drive compared to the Gallardo. The Ferrari was sliding around quite a bit. I got the Gallardo to slide a tiny bit in one of the corners but other than that it was rock solid. ![http://www.nyspeed.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=36430&stc=1](http://www.nyspeed.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=36430&stc=1) ![http://www.nyspeed.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=36431&stc=1](http://www.nyspeed.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=36431&stc=1) ---
