wrong. Japanese power kicks in at the 1/8th. If the LT1 didn't cheat to get there, it would've been in trouble.

Well in all fairness, he did let out. I guess he thought the guy redlighted? And then got back in it a few hundred feet out.

I guess yall did not get the memo that skylines CAN NOT BE BEAT by ANYTHING! NASA gets all their technology from Nissan engineers. In fact Neil Armstrong later went to work for Nissan a test driver. Without the Skyline we would not KNOW was power was like........

He needs to re-angle that push cart handle on the back so he can pickup 3 seconds in the quarter.

Those comments are hilarious, one guy said the Camaro had to be blown/TT'd to run that time, when you can CLEARLY hear that he is all motor.

Stupid comment anyway. Just because the car needs part X to run a certain time doesn't detract from the fact that it ran that time.

"This car needs nitrous!" "This cars needed a bigger turbo!" "Your car costs more!" .. who cares? If it has 4 wheels and goes that fast, it's respectable.

I think that car would be a lot better with; 1) taking that ridiculous wing off and, 2) painting it all the same color. Would do WONDERS

Edit: Like this one
