We'll see. A Sloss street sighting is as elusive as Sasquatch.

I've driven an R with a 6 speed manaul and a Stage 3 with egear. The 6spd R at full tilt was easier to handle than the egear. The egear unsettles the car way more than the 6spd. For the HP the car is a lot easy to handle than one would think but still along way from point and shoot.

They would have ran out and polished the car if that was the case.

Ben, I'm gonna have to disagree, the SL is EASY EASY EASY to drive...much easier than the 6-speed at full kill. Maybe John Reed actually listened to me and turned Eric's 6-speed down to 1200 on "kill" setting just in case he tried lining up with me.

To Underground Racing:

I just have to say that we flew 3000 miles from Vancouver, Canada to check out all these rides in person and it was beyond worth it. The cars you guys have built are absolutely amazing. It was awesome to see them perform on the street and furthermore to see them making pulls at 1500+ horsepower without any hitches or even a single puff of smoke out the tailpipes. They could not have run harder or cleaner, and I love how much you beat them up. Congrats on all your work, you’ve really created an amazing bunch of vehicles. We look forward to joining in the fun next year and are planning on trailering some toys down ourselves. Keep it up!

To HoustonT:

Thanks for an awesome event and all your work setting it up! It was amazing!

With more seat time I'd probably agree. The E-gear just seemed a little more unsettled.

Hi all, been following these forums for a while but never bothered to register. Just a quick question, does anyone know if the AMS GTR did any street running? Or were they scared off by the mighty TT's of UGR

AMS does not run their shop car on the street.

Way too much to lose on legal front.

Ams is badass at what they do! Alpha omega is a benchmark for the gt-r! But no way is that in the same league as the ugr ttg r! Hands down!! A lambo is a lambo! A gt-r at the end of the day is a Nissan.

I drive Chevy's and Fords (and BMW's), so I may not have a proper boner over the Italian brands, but I think the GT-R's are pretty bad-***.

Any car, of any make, costing > $200K+ and/or making > 1200whp is fvking bad-***.
