R35 Gtr At The Drag Strip In Perth "first Run Was A 11.6"


Recommended Posts

the car ran identical trap speeds of 179.69klms. So it backed off quite early from the finish line....

All that being said congratulations to lil bro and cant wait to see the times when its prepped and caged for targa...

Told my brother (he drives a supra...reckons its faster than a speeding bullet)...he said 'thats bullshit, they must have modified it or something, slicks....' I laughed my ass off...said 'no, its stock'...still doesnt believe me....:)

the car was dead stock, the back seat and sterio was removed, there was a cammera set inside the car to record, and i got a few shots and a vid of it too but im stuck at work at the moment.

by the way it hit the 180 just over 3/4ith ish not 1/4th my bad.

it was amaizing to watch altho it was such over busy night it "we only got 2 runs" it was great to see it in action. I think it will be seen on ASG next month :D so keep an eye out.

All I know is Steve said he had a camera to take a movie of it and I haven't seen him today so I will chase him up later.

Champion.

You should buy my Stagea too.

Just keep in mind running times at a strip compared to using a system like a Correvit style system that most car companies and magazines use will always net a different (read: faster) time. See, at a strip, timing doesn't start until the timing beam is broken. With a hard launching car like a GTR or Porsche turbo etc you'd probably already be doing 10 - 15 klm/h by the time you break the beam, hence the "quicker" dragway times. Correvit and GPS based systems start timing as soon as the vehicle moves.

Regardless though, that's a fantastic time for a stocky :dry:

see now thats a good explanation!

All that being said congratulations to lil bro and cant wait to see the times when its prepped and caged for targa...
