Mtcobra Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 I ran a few 1:40 laps at Big Willow today but what I really enjoyed was chasing a GT-R and finally wearing him out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAD SNAKE Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 My 20 year old nephew has a '13 GT-R. Can't wait to show him the video. Why did he let you pass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OsirisGT500 Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 I was there today. You were the fastest in your group I think. Any mods to the car at all? I didn't have my car I was there with a buddy. He has the 03 blue cobra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helix Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 Were you pushing the car as hard as you could? That acceleration from 80 to 118 in a few seconds was already incredible Very nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViperNC Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 Looks like the difference between a more experienced driver in the GT500 and a less experienced driver in the GTR. Well done. The GTR on paper would be quite the formidable opponent on the track and should be superior in the corners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mtcobra Posted December 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 I dogged him for about 5 laps and finally got close enough I think he knew I was marginally faster; he blew his corner down the hill and I think he got tired of me behind him. If I had more fuel I would have stayed out and I believe I could have caught that Corvette in front of him. This was the combined Purple and Black groups. (Black being the faster, more experienced group.) I ran purple and the GT-R and Corvette ran in the black group and were placed 1 and 2 on grid. No doubt a GT-R in the right hands is a bad fast car. Car is stock...except for the brake components listed in my signature. It doesn't even have the SVT package...just SVT tuned...whatever that is. I have MPSS 265's on the front and Hancook 285's on the rear..(I had tire issues and they were all I could find in a pinch). I think with MPSS's on the rear the car would feel even better. It's my 2nd time to Big Willow and 7th track day so I'm still learning...this lap and this session I ran 1:40 - 1:41 laps consistently and the car felt good. I used about a tank and a quarter in 4 sessions... this is the most fuel I've ever used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank S Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 The GT-R guy either wasn't paying close enough attention or didn't know what was wrong with his line. I thoroughly enjoyed that lap. The focal length was superior to most choices that show up on line. Good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJN Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 Awesome run, just goes to show what can do stock even if you have the right lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
