My ride in a GTR
so today i went to import alliance with nico club. very large turn out of nissans, and a man from nissan was there in a GTR press car. he took some one in a ride in it, around the track, the road course. when he got back i was like man i wish i could take a ride with him, before i could even ask two ppl asked him, i was like danm. well he took them for a lap, no going super fast just showing them what the car would do. when they got back, he looked over at me and said, lets go.
i was like he// yeah. he told me that he had to take it easy because i was almost out of gas, well to my suprise he was lying. he got on it and never let off. i had a BALL. theres a link to the video below. a pic of me at the end,the right side of my face is paralyzed nothing is wrong

You could steady your hand by pressing your arm against the window. Just a thought.

f that man... the video was pretty nice... it's hard to get a feel for how fast the car is from a video though.. i'm guessing faster than my maxima.. lol.. was the guy using paddle shifters, or a standard stick shift?

Wow dude. You are one lucky guy. If I had the money, that video would've made me go to Nissan to put my name on a waiting list. 
Congrats on being able to ride it, and the video wasn't terrible guys. I got a nice look at the interior (GT5 is ok, but it's not real. This is real.) and a pretty good idea of the kind of track monster this car is. Thanks for sharing dude.

That's so awesome for a 3900+ lb car.

 you know it's DCT only, right? no classic manual due to them using R34 gear ratios, the best way to make it perform was an insanely fast shifting automated(not automatic) manual tranny
