So you are acknowledging you have a better chance to win on a shorter course. That doesn't sound like the faster car to me

I'm guessing a Leaf could beat your GT-R from a dig if the track was 10 feet long

the tranny builds get up there in a hurry. sheps trans for 1000tq is 16-18k.

oddly some of the turbo upgrade kits are the cheaper side of upgrades lol

I always kid myself that the number isn’t that bad cuz I never account for the parts I took off and sold. Yeah, like that makes a dent.
