There are a select few players in the market with production vehicles that hit a top speed higher than 250 mph; however, Lamborghini and Ferrari aren’t one of them. As consumer behavior takes an expected twist towards fuel-efficiency (and as governments set higher fuel-economy regulations), supercar manufacturers have vowed to offer more economical sports cars.

Well, thank god for people like Underground Racing, which recently exceeded 250 mph in their highly modified Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera with their 1500-WHP twin-turbo package.

The event took place at The Texas Mile, where Richard Holt piloted the twin-turbo Gallardo Superleggera to a top speed of 250.1 mph.
