Zero to Sixty in 2.9 seconds with cornering and stopping performance to match sound like fun? Well thrashing the STILLEN GT-R targa car around Targa Newfoundland is going to be one hell of an experience.
The car is now completed including pre-race testing and tuning and is shipped out. Now it’s fully cooked the guys at STILLEN have photographed it and put a teaser video together.
Getting so close now, hit up the STILLEN blog for more details and pics…
TiTek Innovations extends their range of exhausts this week with the release of their Titanium Race version cat back exhaust. This exhaust features a 90mm main section into 2x76mm resonated sections. These resonators are smaller than the street version which makes them lighter and subsequently louder as well. The whole system tips the scales at just 8.9kgs (19.5lb).
The GOTO:Racing Nissan GT-R entered into a NASA Time Trials event in Super Unlimited category over the weekend and came away with a solid win. As you can see in the videos, it was a tough battle with one quick Mustang rumored to be in the 700hp range running 335 wide slicks all round. During the same outing they also managed to take the Thunderhill Time Trial lap record.
Overall the guys seem really happy about the car’s performance but recognize some areas they can improve on. Such events are perfect for exactly this reason, data gathering and planning.
