Still around, sold my evo for...

Still kicking around, its been a long time since I dropped in. I actually ended up posting my evo up again for sale with the intention of it wouldn’t sell but I was wrong. Someone came through with money and it headed off to Utah. I had that thing for 12 years and I just had enough after this years build. Took way to long and I was just sick of it just sitting in the garage when I really don’t have the time to race it the way it should’ve been, I surprisingly don’t miss it… I guess you just know when enough is enough.

Anyway, I didn’t plan on picking up anything till spring for obvious reasons… I had my mind pretty much set on picking up a c7 z06 or a GTR, I stuck to my guns (except waiting till spring part LOL) and came across this car. It was exactly the type of car I was looking for ultimately. Makes 4 digit horsepower, has gone faster than my evo ever has and the evo went 9.1 this august when I raced it at Summit. This car does it even better all while retaining AC/heated seats/navigation and drives pretty damn close to how a factory GTR drives. Overall i’m pretty excited to really have something I can actually drive around and have fun in again, mash the pedal and let over 1k+ HP hit the pavement.

I’'ll def have to frequent the cars and coffee come spring!

My 2010 GTR, built top to bottom by T1 race development in Rockwall, TX

Damn, I was just smiling at the fact that another GTR was in the area. But a 1k+HP one, very nice!!

wowzer.

looks amazing. :tup:

Crazy how many stock parts are under the hood of a car making that kind of power.

+1

Nice upgrade! Close to stock driveability with 1K HP on tap is awesome.

:tup:

Cool deal…welcome back…and I agree (was just having a conversation with a friend last night about this), it is incredible how fast some cars are out of the box these days…it wasn’t that long ago that 13’s were considered quite fast from the factory…I mean, that was for a supercar even…

Congrats Paul!

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh… whoa.

beautiful car, guess you can just hop in it and go! is there really anything you can do to make it “yours”

Rims! Carbon brakes! The amount of crap you can get for a gtr is disgusting

That’s too many horsepowers… like it

Yeah, writing the check. Fuck building when you can buy

This. Been there, done that with my evo. WAY easier to buy something already done and drive it, I basically got the car for free with how much $$ dropped into this car

oh i believe that! i guess it just looks great and for me half the fun is making it my own
