Half-mile tests are a standard benchmark for performance. We can see some amazing speeds and shorter times through it. Underground Racing, a custom shop out of North Carolina, has broken their own half-mile record with one powerful Lamborghini.

Underground has customized a twin-turbocharged Huracan. This 3,000 horsepower super Lambo set a record of 257 mph last year when Gidi Chamdi behind the wheel. Now the same team is back at the Pike Peak Airstrip Attack in Colorado.



The video above shows the new attempts in action. While its first run didn't beat the record, it gave us a good view of just how fast 200+ mph actually is. The super Lambo simply rocketed past onlookers. On its second attempt, it manages a half-mile speed of exactly 259.67 mph. This breaks their own record from last year.

Congratulations Underground and your team, this is an impressive feat to see.
