Did You See Anything Good Today?

Awesome cars, Harry!! -kevin

Just came across this thread now! Didnt know it was here but wanted to share what I had seen in the last couple of months...

This is a couple of pics of a GTR before it was officially released here... Its been filled with stickers because it was used in a Time Attack competition in the Pro Street category with Tom Coronel as the driver... same driver that set the Ring record in the ACR Viper... I saw this car while I was coming back from break, cruising around the parking lot at my work. The man inside was from a Nissan dealer and coming to visit Compuware (Sponsor maybe??) The GTR was imported by Nissan High Performance Center Visscher here in Amsterdam.


I know Im cheesing... I was happy to finally see one..



Little clip of GTR

The next little clip I have is of a Wiesmann GT I believe? I'm not sure which one it is... but I saw it when me and a buddy were on our way to The Hague.... Damn nice looking ride!

Is this being entered in the UK Time Attack Championship as well?

Could be? I found all that stuff out when I saw the car and looked up some of the stuff on the internet. It could be that its being entered in the UK timeattack... not far from here...

Bugger...time for race fuel!

I would check it out for sure if I were you... its only a guess on my part...

Tom Coronel isn't listed down on the entry list but it doesn't have cars listed yet just drivers.

Then I dont think it will be entered there then... unless theyre using a different driver. All in all I dont think you have to worry about this car entering

One entered the Oulton Park round last year,apperently it was pretty easy to get past although they couldnt get toyo R888's to fit it only T1R's, so not too worried.

That was the RC Developments car (The guys with the DayGlo Evos).

For a standard car it did pretty well, fairly safe to say that a GT-R modified to the same standard/level as the Time Attack UK front-runners would smash lap records, if not storm the entire championship.

I imagine something as simple as some R888s would make it pretty potent around most Time Attack UK locations.

Not this year it wouldn't a GTR wouldn't have a hope in hell against Andy Gallacher's focus which is entered this year.

Same here. I'm hoping to see one over the summer, but that's a long way away.

I'd be happy to see any Skyline at least.. I once saw an R32 and an R33 in England when I was on class trip.. Other that that there were many Rolls Royce's and Ferrari's, but here, where I live, there aren't such expensive cars to be seen ..

A fully-modified GT-R would give Gallacher's Focus more than a run for its money. It's a plain fact if you look at how well the Japanese tuners are getting on with their GT-Rs.

Come 2 weeks and we shall see but his focus has a full tubular chassis, weighs under 1100kg and has in the area of 800bhp should be a good season this year.

We don't get Skylines here. I hardly see anything good here. Mostly I see crap cars like Cobalts and Escorts, and tons of trucks. (There is a kid in some of my classes that loves Cobalts, and we almost got in a fight about Camaro vs. Mustang. I was on Chevy's side, of course. He's clearly a complete idiot.) I haven't seen anything good today, anyway.

In case you don't know what a Cobalt is, it's a little four-cylinder car that to me is ugly, but this dude I mentioned earlier thinks they're good-looking. Think your small cars, but half as fun to drive and half as refined.

Still waiting for that festival and car show!

Toronado

Are those nasty new Beamer 7s on sale in America yet?

Saw one yesterday, will post a pic when Photobucket stops being a pain...

I know what his Focus has, hence why i'm stating a high-tuned, stripped, dipped and prepped GT-R would embarrass most Time Attack UK participants.

Spotted this selection in about a 2 hour spell while walking around the 'rough' end of town (notice many more Japanese modified cars round here) yestrerday afternoon...
