+1 Why would you make a 1000 hp car and run 555r's LOL what a waste of power.

The owner has other tires for track use and if he wants to go street racing. The car is going to be daily driven, and ET Streets/NT05R's don't do very well in the wet. It's not a waste.. the car is pretty damn fun to drive. Lol.. 3rd spins a bit, but pulls hard as hell. From a 60 to 70 roll, this thing would hurt some feelings for sure.

I don't think a GT-R on stock turbos would stand a chance. That thing looks like a monster, shame it doesn't hook better.

I don't think so either.. This thing went 166mph in the half mile, from a dead stop. It's fast even spinning through 3rd.

Almost looked like he was sawing at the wheel on purpose.

Run a bolt on GTR...

hope you were kidding...

Are you implying that a GT500 that's putting down over 1,000 HP at the wheels can't run with a bolt-on GTR? Is the GTR really just impossible to beat by anything that's not another GTR or UGR Gallardo?? Is that the world we live in? For clarification, "bolt-on" and "built" are not synonymous.

Sick car, would be a ton of fun. Not to be a jackass but he's going to get that thing into trouble holding the wheel like that.

lol.. definitely some over correction there. That was before the sway bar and Panhard upgrades. The car felt very unsettled before those went in. So, it felt like it needed more correction than it did. The new parts and some tuning got it dialed in perfectly. You can see from the outside shot that the car tracks almost perfectly straight. I didn't get another inside shot after. Ran out of daylight.

I hope he was implying that it would be a joke for the GT500 to race it, it would put bus lengths on the GTR if its a high enough roll to counter the spinning.
