It’s been a while now but the previous quarter mile record (at an officially sanctioned drag strip that is) of 10.31 @ 131mph (http://www.gtrblog.com/2009/05/20/mvp-motorsports-gt-r-breaks-quarter-mile-record-1031-131mph/) was destined to fall and fall it has! The GT-R nudges its way ever closer to the 9 second mark thanks to SSP (http://www.gtrblog.com/category/parts/southsideperformance/), who built the car, and Jack Cecil from HP Logic who tuned it, by running a 10.236 @ 136.02 mph in Florida this week. A video of the pass is below.
On the same night the guys also recorded a 10.52 pass at 141.15mph (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTGfXZUZKuw) in their white GT-R.
Certainly getting quicker and quicker, will we see 9 seconds sooner rather than later?
