Ran into the new GTR....here is what happened...
Obviously...I followed him. We got to a red light but unfortunately, I couldn't get next to him, only behind him...so I am waiting at the light and I am hoping that he will hit it...but I know that I wouldn't be able to take off as I would like because he might not hit it. Well he does and I do my best to keep up with him. No chance...we went to about 80 or so and he had me by 5 car lengths or so.(I would like to think that if we were side by side, it might be a bit closer)
So we get up to another red light and we talked...I told him I would follow him onto the highway...we got on the highway and he hit it from about 70 to 120...this time...a much different story...now he still had me but it was by 1 1/2 to 2 car lengths...but once again I was reactionary to him taking off because I was behind him.
My thoughts on this car...most noticably, it is much wider, longer and tall then I thought...it looks damn good...I could not hear his exhaust note over mine...very quick from 0 but not too fast at higher speeds. (This has been proven on many videos on line).
Take care -
