Impossible. They drive themselves, everyone knows that. Every GTR is the same no matter who is behind the wheel.

LOL

No the Buick is good in my book! Def was talking about the very last two turds...

Seemed like that one race took up most of the video.

Hey Evan even with your trolling there are some that mess up. Driver mod or not, a stock ZR1 isn't pulling on a full bolt on E85 GT-R.

But then again GT-Rs drive themselves and the person driving is always on point etc., etc......

Im fully aware there are ways to screw up driving a GTR. But lets face it... you dont have to deal with tire spin...you dont need to deal with a clutch pedal...you dont need to deal with missing a gear. Starting in the wrong gear, hitting the rev limiter, short shifting, and going late on the hit is really the only ways you can screw up driving one of those. I dont think any of that requires any skill really (no offense). If you dont know what gear your car should start in...and dont know what RPM you should shift at, then you just shouldnt be racing cars.

GTR's are a well built thought out car. Awesome machine period. That's why they are super expensive !

You can say that but full bolt on GT-Rs have trapped 142mph.


On average GT-R's with those mods are faster than a stock ZR1. I beat a stock ZR1 with full bolt ons and pump gas.

The GT-R might have been on pump super...I'll ask. But he definitely started in the wrong gear and if the ZR-1 driver is who I think it is, I've never heard anyone shift as quick as him. Definitely a ZR-1 on driver mod.

Anyone else notice the glowing red header on the Red Sled? **** is crazy how fast that big truck is...

The silver C5 was doin work for sure....especially considering it was spinning the tires over the bumps.

The Grand Sport ran damn good too for an auto and high speed roll race...

All in all it was a great video...

And Yes, Mark's C5Z is ready for a tranny job...LOL.. He'll be fixing engine again as well if he doesnt get the shifting issues resolved..

From the GT-R driver...

"I was on E85....when I raced <name ommited> I thought I was on kill mode but when I checked my maps after the run I was actually on 17 pounds....I didn't have it turned up all the way....either way it was a fun race and I will gladly run him again properly...I had a bad night (we all have them) but I hold no grudges....I will be out there again and run the right way....I do know however I can take the GT500 that is making 700+....I started in the wrong gear .....I was reeling him in but he let off due to traffic and our second run I was cut off by the foxbody....he didn't move out of my lane so I was never WOT (75% at most)...but I will come back and have a better night... pasd that along to the people on ls1tech"

Soooo...GT-R was in the right gear and on E-85 vs the ZR-1, but only at 17psi. Plus ZR-1 had a dam near pro driver mod lol. And that fellows is how a bolt-on E-85 mid-10sec GT-R gets beat by a stock ZR-1.

JK told you that? He told me something else on facebook, that he was in the wrong gear against the ZR1. It doesn't make any sense anyway I beat a stock ZR1 by 2 cars from a 60 roll back in the states and I was only at 18psi.

Even if the ZR1 pulled it wouldn't pull a full bolt on GT-R by 5 cars, especially when a GT-R with those mods traps higher than a stock ZR1.

Kdanner tuning, wbt, and chris car keep amazing for simple mods no boss heads cams etc. And not only ones.



you can find a blown boss to compare to my car. Go ahead


im still waiting on this boss that ran 10's at 127....when records show 11's at 118....
