haha   wow.      But none the less, your time is freakin awesome.

When it comes to the GTR, thats ridiculously quick for a car with a body.  Its seems that you really need to strip a car down to compete with the bikes of today.

Or give it a killer AWD system   ;D

I assume the R35 was on Hoosier autox compound (A6) tires.  They don't last many laps as they overheat quickly but will out-grip traditional slicks.   Most of the time-attack records at MRP have all gone to cars on Hoosier A6s.   They normally wait for a break in the traffic an then attempt to lay down their 4 fast laps.  I heard from SCCBC that some of the lapping day guys have started to follow this tactic.

Anyway, fantastic time Lowell!

$245+hst for this one.  Tech is the same as autox.  Lugnuts tight, battery tie down, no loose objects, good tires, brake pads, seat belts work, helmet has current rating.
