Starting to like the spoilerless look as well ;)

'kin 'ell!! :luxhello:

Jesus thats mental, what a noise !!

What Transmission is it, semi auto? On my laptop by the sounds the car seems to get a little confused due to the wheel spin and selects the next gear, and the realises it upped the gear too soon due to the wheel spin and then pegs back down a gear for a split second before re-selecting the up gear again..... I will listen again tomorrow on the desk top speakers.... but thanks for sharing this ;)

I should imagine the car was ran in manual mode!

Holy Sheeet!!

yes, quite a nice sound

Almost as quick as Forrest's Scoob ;)

Interesting that the record pass had by far the slowest 60ft time.

AMS said the car doesnt gain full traction until it's in 5th gear! Obviously they know where to turn their attention to now it has the power.....

That's mental. I liked the rear facing camera.... Silly acceleration!

Nice :cool:

Sh!t reactions times though! My mates 13 year old son regular pulls 0.0 :D

I don't think they were too worried about the reaction times ;)

yes please!!!

1300hp, wtf :eek: how on earth is it so high?

TX.

Because it uses my ECU code :) Speed density and realtime tuning on the OEM ECU has allowed then to control better the full potential of their turbo kit over their previous 1100 hp. Additionally they have engine block strengthening to reduce chance of cracks.

Fairplay that drivetrain must be a serious bit of kit to hold over 1000lb ft of torque:eek:

Id have it in the twisties though:lol1::lol1::lol1::lol1::lol1:

One step further, into 8 seconds.....

That sounds incredible! I think i'd be happy with that!

Pretty much full weight road car too.....

Scary!!!

2 weeks till I get mine :D

:thumb: longest 2weeks ever I bet, mine was 2 years old last weekend :eek:

Don't know whether to stick an 850 engine in there or spend the money on something German to go in the stable too :wonder:

Definitely.......... :cry: its driving me insane!! But am sure it will be worth the wait!

Id be going 850 engine or something small and mental for the track, like caterham or ariel atom ;) but thats just me.

Got me a test drive in an MY11 on Sat, can't wait :D

oh no................................................ ....another one :luxhello:

lol, it's not a done deal yet...I might hate the flappy paddle gearbox :Suspiciou

Got a quote for insurance today, pleasantly surprised...£1473 fully comp and that includes five UK track days and 2 European ones! (competition car insurance)

Not that my Scoob has gone any where near a track in it's life...

Must be your post code... my quote was better than that, surprising actually!!

once you drive, "then we'll talk"............ :thumb:

I'm north of 6ft3 and heavy build, atom/caterham isn't really a viable option for me!!

Playing with a couple of ideas as to a winter project....need to have a ride in an 850 as as tempting as it sounds i'm not sure the car needs it....

My scoob never went near a track, but the GTR has to see the track because there is no other place you can actually understand how mental the car is!

Let us know your impressions after your test drive :thumb:

Clarkson got into the ariel fine :)

Let us know what you decide on

I'll report findings tomorrow :thumb:

Found this link on youtube, Lexus FLA 2012 model vs GTR's:

These hypercar manufacturers must hate Nissan, lol

Pretty much, GTR is a bit of a game changer!
