Bittersweet video for me, I was invited to attend this video shoot but wasn’t able to make it, now after watching this video, I feel completely stupid for not attending…oh well. Great stuff. HD version on Vimeo.

Nurburgring in Winter

I have to admit this looks like a ton of fun.

I’ve seen this car race before and I have to say it sounds far cooler from the inboard camera. Most impressive.

Did the GT-R SpecV do a 7:20 Nurburgring time?

Adam — Sun, 11 Jan 2009 21:20:58 +0000

My Japanese is not what it used to be, but the folks on NAGTROC are speculating what this slide might mean.I talked with the US Product manager for GT-R last month during the LA Autoshow and he said that the tires alone are going to shave significant time as Dunlop has a new compound available that is good for as much as “4 seconds on a course the size of the Nurburgring”. We’ll have to see what they come back with in April, let the video be the proof.

GTR Battle at ButtonWillow

Boo-Yah! Craig gives us another stunner. Really hate that I missed this event, I hope to make the next one though.

R35 GT-R vs Ducati 1098, “Goodbye Mr. Motorbike”

Adam — Wed, 17 Dec 2008 18:29:05 +0000

So I own both, a GT-R and a sportbike, so I can vouch for what they are identifying as the differences. Autocar does a phenomenal job of explaining how the two vehicles attack the track differently, though I have to admit the outcome was a bit of a surprise for me.

Did Sam Hubinette throw the GT3 race???

Adam — Thu, 27 Nov 2008 01:45:48 +0000

I can’t remember if I posted this or not, but if so sorry for the dupe. A little more behind the scenes from the Head to Head shoot we did last September. I know “Heavy Chevy”and other GT-R haters are always crying “Media Conspiracy!”….hmmm, maybe they’re right? Maybe I’m behind it all….muwahahaha (evil laugh)

Different horses for different courses explained

Adam — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 18:50:52 +0000

Sometimes a Ferrari is not the fastest car for a given track. The reason I highlighted this video is to show how a bunch of relatively small cars are struggling to get around the tight twisty corners of a go-kart track. Obviously for this sort of track you need a narrow car that can achieve shallow entry angles, much like most autocross courses where an S2000 might beat a mighty Z06.

Carlos Ghosen almost throws up in an early prototype, Nissan Execs browsing Autoblog in a Staff Meeting, and peak at the rumored 50KG of testing equipment mounted in the trunk of the Nurburgrin GT-R. All good stuff.

Just a little teaser video of the next episode of Head to Head. To be honest I thought they would hold this for the finale, since these were the big guns, but I have to say I can’t wait to watch the full episode (even though I know how it went down).

Guess My car will be in a few more weeks….sigh… patience…

So I was lucky enough to attend this taping. Big thanks to James for inviting me along, the StreetFire film crew had a blast, and shot some behind the scenes.

Of course those of you that have been following this blog know that my GT-R participated in one fo the shoot outs. I’m looking forward to that one being shown soon so I can really talk about the times.

I hate that I missed this race this year….oe of the sucky things about living in LA is being so far away from Road Atlanta.

Maybe next year I’ll be able to take some time off and go to the race again.

I had a ton of fun at this event (big thank you to Torque for organizing this), and it looks like Jonathan finally took the wraps off the teaser video as a prelude of what is to come. Of course they cut out the lovely Miss Torque, my personal favorite, to see more of her, check out the Gallery below.

Pretty impressive video made all the more compelling by the fact it was shot on a Canon HF10 consumer cam corder. Goes to show it’s 20% the tool and 80% the artist…but isn’t that allways the case?

New Honda NSX

Honda has 7:29 to beat for the GT-R and an astounding 7:22 to beat the Viper. Rumor has it, they’re atempting 7:2x with a naturally aspirated V10 and possibly AWD.
