2006 Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder

The Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder’s permanent four-wheel drive viscous-clutch system kept us glued to the track like gum on a sidewalk. Under normal conditions, power is distributed 30:70 between the front and rear wheels, but when it detects slippage, the system immediately delivers torque to whichever wheels offer the best traction. The suspension system is also tweaked toward slight understeering when entering a corner to prevent body roll, and anti-dive and anti-squat controls ensure the nose won’t dip during braking or rise at take-off. As a result, the Spyder is super-stable even while being thrown around the track.
