Well, technically the GT-R still has a clutch - I will tell you it certainly feels and sounds like it has a traditional clutch at slow speed - lol
I guess I did the same thing with my car... I had a pretend sequential gearbox last year, and now I have a real one in the M6. I plan on being there with the new ride and will let you guys beat up on me since you didn't stand a chance last year... lol

Where is your monster car with the SP kit? I remember you thinking of selling it, so it went?

It has a new proud owner in Switzerland... So no one in the states will have to worry about a high hp yellow 350Z sneaking up on you.

Plus I would have felt kinda bad if I had to beat up on XKR for yet another year... haha My story is same as Toast, had the car for 5 years, built it up to 1000hp and then kinda got bored with it. Time for a new project, and after driving that old 7 series for a daily I started to like bimmers a lot. Figured the M6 would keep my interested for about 5 more years. Already have some parts on it!

Hey, I want to ride in the M6 so hoping you planning to still attend

My 'bone stock' GTR should be well broken in by ZDayZ, LOL.

Looking forward to a great event and weekend, last year was well worth the trip up.

Can't help it. I really do want to hear that M6 V10 sing out to 8k rpms! I think the M6 might have a tough time against Sharif's lightened 370z... It'll be one or the other taking that class - imo, unless we get a surprise from a built NA - lots of fun though!


Folks get your payments in!!!

And you know I can't roll stock... haha I may or may not have a few parts added to this beast...

I will run who ever wants a shot at smoking a german exotic... I am sure there will plenty of you guys that will kick my butt. At least those 10 cyl will sound good going down the runway!

Last I heard, the dyno wasn't coming this year

So unless they rethought their plans, I think the airstrip event is going to the only place to show the power.

There were a ton of people "showing their power" flying past our cabin at like 7:13AM last year.
