I'm getting a bit worried now.

This car is really starting to grow on me, especially since seeing one in the metal. Looks great in red too...although I still hate the look of the front.

I'm going to give it a while yet, at the very least until the Spec-V is released. Improved models always follow....

Thumbs up

Mine's took out their new R35 at Tsukuba today. Managed a 1.03.1 second lap. Very good indeed. I then heard the driver, Kinoshita-san, left the VDC/TC control in "R" mode. Which explained why the car seemed to cut power when exiting corners. With the VDC/TC systems turned to "OFF" this thing will easily lap close to a second faster. 1.02 at Tsukuba is fast for a standard car.....
Engine was probably tight too...they just picked it up last night!

Pictures to follow..

Did Mine's already did some work on the car? It is cool to see they are already using the car on the track.

It would be cool if they respray the car in the signature white that Mine's uses.

Got back from the event a few hours ago. Mine's had hinted they'd be bringing this to Tsukuba, whist at the Nismo Festival, but it was good to see it be driven hard.

It's pretty quiet as it whoshes past, but 103.1 lap time is fairly impressive, considering a standard R34 GT-R is in the 105's... Note how little body roll it has for a production car. As DCD says, if the VDC/TC systems had been turned to "OFF", it might have done better, even. More pics from time attack later (The M Speed GT-R was amazing to look at, as usual... Got some great pics underneath - but that's another thread.. )

Not to dampen spirits or anything.. but I remember the BM guys did mid 1:04 on the stock Evo 9 GSR. Just 1 second slower.

That said, the track is very short and the GTR wouldn't be able to stretch their legs that much on this course.
