GTR arrived back from Willall yesterday morning. I didnt have 2 days to spare right now so I had it trucked back.

Initial thoughts on the new power..... "scary fast"...the thing builds revs like a bike.

Having all wheel drive, 100% grip and 622hp the at the wheels is insane.

Anyway...I though I would try and sneak a run at WSID tonight even though I had been booted 12 months ago for running under 11.00

Went through with no issues. First run the launch didnt feel clean so I jumped on the brakes after half track for a 12.5 @ 60mph

Second run launch felt better but was still off the pace (should be doing mid 1.6s) with a 1.78 60 foot but I stayed on it for a 10.62 @ 134.81mph...bye bye Charlie for me...again.

Very happy with the MPH...means she is making good power, the crap 60 foot did my ET no favors.

Bring on the Snowy Mountains 1000...and litre bike hunting :-)

And thanks to Martin @ Willall for all of the work and the perfect tune in a very short time frame

Thanks Mate...that will be it for a while. I have a few things on my plate right now that consume money even faster than an R35.

Hey Kev, nice progressive power, all the way to the top.

1000NM on tap all the way to 7000 rpm.Good job by Martin.

Mid 130’s is a good trap speed, 106 at ½ track is very good.

Drop 60’ by a few 10^th’s will drop the time to low 10, but good 60” is hit and miss at wsid, unless well prepped. What rpm launch?

I love the 335 rubber; Good move, as I think the stock 285 rubber would struggle.

I'm only driving my car 1 day in every 7-10 days, but when i do I call it GTR therapy!

great times Kev, i think theres another tenth or 2 in it though on the strip

im heading to heathcote soon, and plan to use the vbox to monitor my run, if i get a good 0-100 ill stay on it, if not just roll through the traps

I launched at 4000rpm

Willalls 2012 R35 did a 10.30 with the same MPH as me....but he did a 1.59 60

What pisses me off is playing with the launch control on the street I see 0-100km/h in 2.9 sec on my vbox. On the 10.6 run I did 3.4 secs 0-100

I will post the in car video tomorrow

Yes, if your 0-100 is above 3.1 get off it after half track.

See you at Cooma

I think that is good advice.

In car video...a bit boring really

watch it in 1080...you can see the speed in the centre clearly

Hey Kev, looks good for Time Attack street class next year. Now that it looks like some of our wrx's will not be allowed to race because of the wider fenders, your power level is a step from Marek's, and could be very competitive, although it is getting tougher. Time to break 1:40 at EC.

Son David will volunteer to drive if you don't want to drive (lol). He's pestering me to upgrade my R35, so he can drive it!

I think I'lll just let the picture do the talking.....

[domino_z]

That's awesome, supercar smack down from the r35s again

Well done Kev
