Default 820 HP GTR vs My 538 HP Trans Am
Video was put together well. Enjoy!


Car chattered the tires just a little after the launch. I lost about a tenth and 1 mph. As you can see, wouldn't have made a bit of difference.

Gave it hell, but we can't win them all.

Lol I have always laughed when they say the GTRs drive themselves but man that guy looked like he could have taken a nap during that 9 second pass.

Both cars made great passes though!

You put up a damn good fight. with just a little bit more money and far less than he has in his car you'd make him mad lol.

GTRs suck lol, ******* winning machines.

Your car is badass and 10.4 isn't half bad

Nice run, you're T/A runs hard! You tree'd him and then he was like...nope! Lol. Both bad *** rides, that GTR sounded pretty nasty.

You're pretty close to 9's with that 10.25 pass in your sig, pull some more weight and up the shot a bit (Just for one or two glory passes)

Btw where do I get BMP suspension, is that a new brand?

A bad one since that R looks nothing like a P, Rob...

I agree on pulling some more weight and changing the pill to get a bit more out of her...

Did you not see in the video though, it said "BMP" and that made me laugh. I thought it was noteworthy. Lol.

Good run. T/A's roll out pretty well.

Victor's car is beast and should be an even bigger beast at Texas.

Pretty impressive run, I assume that your TA would leave stock R35s for dead (even newer ones).

What are Florida tint laws like? Looks like you have black vinyls over your windows.

There is none. Same with having your truck lifted as high as you want. Oh and you don't have to wear pants either if you don't want to.

So jealous. Here in the People's Republic if we so much as hold our sunglasses up to the window, we get a tint ticket.
