Can't see this lasting. I think after a few rounds of the "supercars" trying to keep up with the pace car, it will be canned and they'll go back to something a little slower.

[PM-R33]

Hahahaha so true. I wonder if the pace car driver will just snap one day and gun it to see if they can keep up with it

lapped by the pace car... the shame V8 supertaxi's... the shame.

i know everyone is haveing abit of shits and giggles but do you think the GTR will be doing a 2min 9 sec little bit more during the race or so a lap, the Evo's are doing 2:29's which isn't too bad considering the level or development that has gone into the V8's but 20 odd sec is a fair whack to make up.

Wonder what the GTR would actually do around Bathurst?

just make sure it's not quite standard would be funny as to see the pace car overtaking the actualy race cars.

There's an article on it in the current wheels magazine, where they compare the Supercars, 1991 R32 Grp A car and road version R35. And no, it's definitely not as quick as the race cars, but not as far off as you would think.

First official pics of R35 GT-R safety car released about 10 minutes ago. We have posted on the Tarmac magazine website, along with a mock-up of what it should have looked like!

Cheers,

Did they run the 35 with full slicks? Would be interesting to see the times if they did...

If i remember I'll check tonight. Pretty sure it was on stocky's though as it had the standard rims.

Mmm, the paint/stickers dont look too bad

[Beer Baron]

I like it. looks very cool.

[blitzxtr]

Just getting those V8 supercar drivers used to seeing those round lights again before bathurst. They have to let them down slowly. LOL

[N1GTR]

Suprised there's nothing on the roof!

BTW good on tarmac mag, actually running stories that are worth reading. I look forward to each new copy that comes out, its really filled the hole SPEED left
