Not sure if they do. ill ask next time i hang out with them. Ive been getting this allot lately but to me a 10 second car isnt crazy fast anymore. In South Florida the standard for speed is basically a Bolt-on + cam zo6 on at least a 150 shot(usually 9 second cars with good driver). In current times its just surprising how many sub 11 second cars there are around. Thats why i say my friends GTRs arnt that fast to me.

On the 1/4th mile time... The guy i know when the 600whp+ skyline lost to the AWD m5 from a dig on the street.

here is the race: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ff0Kb2treCU

As u can see. the GTR is great until around the 300 foot mark but at the end of the day the GTR dosnt have the MPH of a supercar

Cool I understand. I have never seen or heard of a AWD M5. That must be a monster.

Just to clarify... "AWD" is the name of the shop.
