The bolded part is not possible without a tune. You need to tune the ecu on the GT-R to make more boost. I would say he was on stock boost looking at your mods and the outcome or on a cobb stage 2 OTS tune which would net him a little bit of power but not much over stock.

Nice kill though.

this^ and the GTR seemed handicapped being in the lane literally right next to other cars driving at normal slower speeds.. what happens when one of those cars doesn't notice him racing fast up their side and makes a lane change, he loses more than a race. easier for you to feel more comfortable pushing it being that you were in the far lane with what seemed to be much less traffic.

first pull :25 in... he has cars literally right in front of him at his side.. and we then see he also had a van up in front in his lane... really expect him to go all out???
:45 in.. same thing, as soon as you get on it you see a couple cars pop up on his side again

I would seriously hope that a person in his shoes wouldn't be trying to go all out...

Racing in traffic is dangerous to not only yourself but others. To get a clean race, line up when it's just the 2 of you in a wide open road.

You guys really think tellin them not to race in traffic will make people stop? Get real. Don't like the video don't comment, easy as that. I didnt warch this video hopin for a church sermon on when not to race. That being said I'd like to see a clean run without traffic to cause a disturbance or a advantage.
