Both of the vehicles are extremely fast and capable directly from the manufacturer. The high performance technology of the BMW M3 brilliantly shows in the display of power and speed. However, the torque monster Lamborghini quickly achieves poll position. Before watching the video, let's check out the specifications!

Initially passing the Diablo this beemer is egging on the Diablo for a race. The Diablo manages to get in front causing the BMW M3 to swoop and pull through various amounts of traffic attempting to pass the Diablo. Trying to regain the pole position, the BMW nearly wrecks into an innocent bystander and the wall of the road. This type of illegal street racing is very bad, and dangerous. As you can see, an innocent person was almost hit while the BMW tried to keep up with the Lamborghini at 100+ mph speeds. A rear end collision at this rate of speed could possibly kill the by stander. This is why street racing is illegal! Keep it on the track!
