    GTR R35 Spec-V

    The other reason I went to Japan was to a drive day that a friend organised me to get a start for at Tsukuba Circuit for the new R35 GTR. We were allowed to take pictures of a show car they had set up in Tokyo for us before we took the Tsukuba Xpress for a 45 minute trip out to Tsukuba..Unfortunately, no camera's were allowed at the track Click here to enlarge...Yeah I got 4 laps to drive myself and 5 with a professional Japanese driver...Nice way to spend a day....

    So this is all I could get with a small digital camera...

    Fun..Lots and lots of FUN!!! I got 4 laps to drive myself and 5 with a professional Japanese driver...The standard R35 is fast...The Spec V is seriously fast!!!! Its marginally lighter, more powerful and has MUCH better brakes and suspension.

    The big prob with the standard R35 is weight and brakes. The carbon/ceramics (once you get used to them, they grab a bit when cold) fix that, they never fade. The small weight drop and better suspension (along with other electronic changes etc etc) all make a big difference.

    Apart from that, driving an R35 GTR Spec-V at Tsukuba in Japan for free couldn't ever be a bad thing... Click here to enlarge
