i saw the most awesome drag race last night in homebush. I saw a blue TE with mags and afat exhaust lined up next to a skyline, and they were both revving their cars as you do...

here i am thinking no way in hell a gemini's gonna come close to a skyline...

and thne then they took off... and the gemini got infront in a flurry of pssshhht noises Smile

man that thing must have had the maddest engine in it... they got up to at least about 140k's before they put the brakes on...

it was really close but the gemini was in front for most of the time,i dunno what it had in it but it beat a stock skyline.. it was revving hard so maybe it was a rotor or something with a fat turbo on it...

either way i wanna see that gemmy up close

What sort of Skyline ?
R32? R33? Gts-T ? GT-R?
Gts-T 's do 0 -100 in about 6.1 secs ( R32 and R33)
GT-R's do about 5 flat or slightly better.

didn't get a real close look but it was a black r33

(i'd say gts-t by the launch it got!)

the gem had fat wheels to mighta helped

skyline looked pretty stock

I've got an 1800 with a nikki on mine (at the moment) Extractors and 2 inch (standard mufflers & shit) but I blew off a stock EARLIER model skyline....

well, I was a carlength ahead....
Until they hit the boot button...

still happy that they had to hit boost to get ahead though Smile
