Lots of GTRs. A bit of drama, but I don't want to elaborate on the misfortune of others. My car held up pretty well though I arrived fairly late in the day because of e85 acquisition mishaps thanks to my "no spill" 5 gallon tanks (had to dry my trunk carpet out on the lawn if that gives any clue). I did manage to get 1/2 tank of e85 while on the strip and the car ran and felt great. No issues in the mountains or on the way home. It will take me a few weeks to get used to the car, that's for sure. Luckily below 3k rpms it feels like a stock 6MT.

I was able to beat the Mercedes That's my G35 with the front LED strips against the max'd out stock turbo Forged GTR at time point 9:30 for run 1, and 10:15 for run 2. First run I started in 3rd and was way out of boost to start. 2nd run at 10:15 much better and was closing, but no more room. Need lots of practice...

Rich, I think its a valve seal, The transmission also let go this year. I am going to have dynosty go through it before I bring it back out. 3 hard seasons of beating on the car.
