Murciélago R-GT 0-60, 1/4 mile, etc. Anyone know??

Hey I was just wondering if anyone knew or had an estimate of the Murcielago R-GT's preformance and horsepower stats. The car is beautiful, and it weighs a little more than half of the production murcielago. I'm thinking with the same engine they can atleast get 0-60 in 3.3 seconds, and top out at around 240 . Lamborghini should be able to tune a 585 hp engine easily into 600 hp or more. B/c the Diablo GTR had 595 hp, and the GT1 had 655.

Reiter engineering is the name of the company that builds/upgrades the Murcielago into the R-GT. Google search and enter their website. In "Press" are articles regarding it. Most are not in english, but the numbers aren't hard to read. It is very, very fast. I think 0-62 in under 2.7 or 2.8. It makes the same horsepower as the stock but has more usable power (larger power band).

Acceleration is certainly quick, but it has trouble on the straights, it doesn't get enough speed. This is certainly a problem --- aerodynamics. I also think it's a little slower in the corners. They really need to get their act together. In other words, more factory support and aero tests are needed.
