That's very nice. Wonder if it will be as much fun as the 360 challenge.

The new F430 Challenge will race a Gallardo in the FIA GT's new GT3 class. I don't think awd is allowed in most major sports car racing around the world.

New Lamborghini Gallardo race car

- News Wire 10-3-05

German motorsport specialist Reiter Engineering has revealed an initial look at its Lamborghini Gallardo sports car.

The 500-plus hp car is being developed for entry in the GT3 category of international sports car series as either four-wheel or two-wheel drive. The image, taken in the early stages of development, clearly shows the distinctive Lamborghini styling of the Gallardo.

Reiter reports it has already received orders and further considerable interest from privateer customers, and the finished product will be available in February. Further technical details on the race car will be available over the next two months, while a street version of the Gallardo GT3R will follow within the next month.

Last weekend the first derivative of the proposed Gallardo GT3 Race successfully completed a two-day shakedown test in the hands of the newly founded Lambo-Racing customer team. The 4WD car was developed and built by Reiter Engineering at the customer's request.

The new Gallardo will race in the FIA GT's new GT3 class as a support event to the FIA GT Championship.
