Lamborghini Gallardo Ski Transporter
OTO. "As you all know I have been debating on winter cars for a quite a while. As the seems Aventador seems to taking a while and there has come a few other alternatives into the picture I decided to get something temporary.
When I saw the "temporary car" I was actually stoked that the Aventador was running late! I think this this thing tuned out sick! Best of all, no more rental cars!!!! This thing is 100% ready to be driven 50 000km this winter!"

It works!
There we go, all three of us made it back home to Monaco after a long day in Modena!
In true TNT style we saw no problems in a Gallardo full of ski equipment and three people for 430km so we went for it! :-) We even got to test the ski box a bit and it seems to be on there pretty good! Think we have to go for the 300 km/h mark next time .;-)

As I had to work yesterday I gave the Lambo keys to Oskar as he wanted to get some shots of the car, this was what he came back with! I am so stoked to have him with me, everything he shoots turn out amazing and when he gets to shoot a car like this on a location like this, well then its just better then amazing!
I would also like to thanks the guys that helped me get this little car together!
Tokan and Jonnie for combining the Gallardo and the LP560 in no time, as well as building the 255km/h "approved" ski box solution. :-)
DMC for a sick looking front end with an extra GT3 lip.
Autostripe for the great cammo wrap job.
Östra gummi for finding winter tires overnight!
Oskar and Marcus for driving this thing down here! (I guess technically they should thank me, giving a Lambo to two 19 year olds to drive across Europe is a dream for most!) :-)
Right now I am sitting here trying to figure out what to do over the next few weeks, so far my planning looks something like this:
November 3rd - Fly up to Sthlm to see Avicii
5th - Fly to Monaco
6th - Drive to Sölden
7-10th - Train in Sölden
11-13th - Budapest Big Air
14-17th - Train in Sölden
18-20th - Stockholm Big Air
21-28th - Train in Trysil
29th - EC in Trysil
But when I look at this is seems a bit hectic so I am trying to figure out how to move things around to make this work as well as possible! Not an easy task!
