R35 GTR World Record 1/4 Mile - John Shepherd 8.61 @ 170 mph

[@supra1722]

always nice to meet an enthusiast that can appreciate either kind, cars and bikes alike :} i always enjoy the great videos bro! will i be seeing an 8 second top street contender bike in the near future?

[@boostmd]

Absolutely! Within the next 6 months you'll see a video of me driving to the track with the ZX14, knocking of an 8 second pass, and driving home. :)

[@supra1722]

bad ass, looking forward to it bro!

[@boostmd]

Shep built it, as far as I know. It's an AMS Alpha 12 kit.

[@supra1722]

dayum! quickest GTR out there! it definitely got out of the hole quicker and with less drama than the Alpha Omega. however, the Omega trapped faster with a bit left on tap. very nice!

[@RichAkaMrGxp]

Congrats

[@trumanhw]

Dude. Your not even using DR, right? Insane. Well done.

[@SalveMonesvol]

Outstanding.

[@boostmd]

Isn't it crazy? Can't wait until I get my hands on an R35!!!

[@Vlasov581]

8 second daily driver! EPIC! Love this car :D

[@ADMotorsport]

Now the record is 8.4 sec 1513whp

[@Jzinho1]

AMS Alpha Omega runs 8.66@175mph...and the clutch slip 2-3 gears

[@stickster44]

Does this GTR have the alpha 9 or 12 package?

[@Chuckkkkkstar]

Gtr power baby

[@nikolaishriver7922]

Now if he could just learn what the green light means he could run a 5

[@kenmck15]

awesome. Is that the stock gear box?

[@rodbro1]

That's amazing!

[@trainwreck60]

Bad ass ! Who built the car ?

[@kenmck15]

crazy shift speed. awesome

[@wildimpo]

Is this Johns car? I seen him drive for AMS before so wasn't sure? very nice!

[@boostmd]

Yes it is!

[@TheMakki9119]

Actually that is pretty fast I don't think many street cars could get an 8 second on the strip

[@jonvincent7378]

6.49 was the record for street legal

[@Edward135i]

Please take this car on pass time, They would probably say it's going to do a 12.5 or somthing dumb like that.

[@ADMotorsport]

From a GTR in romania

[@hotpapayasalad]

where's his talon?

[@boostmd]

Agreed! =D

[@proracer-wrxyaj8725]

Damn!!! That's fast

[@autolifesro9848]

Nice

[@boostmd]

Haha! I can see why you'd think that, but I like anything that's fast! At this point in my life, I can't afford the 8 second street car, but I CAN afford the 8 second street bike! :) It seems like a lot of guys are either car OR bike guys, not both... I love 'em all!

[@vallon1225]

Lol@taking it to passtime...totally agree.

[@IanJamesMullins]

Boring how? Any serious drag car these days is running auto trans. Even the top Z06/Supra/Viper etc are all on auto's in the quarter. The only difference is this trans shifts significantly faster and can be used on a road coarse as well not just geared for a quarter mile. I hate to say it but sticks are dying off as technology improves. One of the reasons I am offloading my Z06 sadly.

[@Powiish]

Ok great video, but why not show the times on the track instead of showing a time slip. What better prove than to see the time trapped in the same vid. It kind of defeat it purpose to cut the video at the end.

[@MrBlakmax]

60 in just 1.46 sec

[@mykulairon]

What??? There are no cars running on the street running 8's. NO WHERE. Obviously you know nothing about cars... kudos man hell of a job with this thing.

[@thelegendbullet937]

Ohio plates? Yo, come on down to Cincinnati and let me take a test run int hat GTR!

[@rachabubo8715]

lost to a colt

[@boostedfoxbody92]

I was at the Dsm shootout at summit motorsports park that day. the colt was the car i remember most :) little front wheel drive beast

[@boostedfoxbody92]

And the guy was driving it all over norwalk that weekend with the slicks on it. Look up turbo Tony colt

[@supra1722]

that's what a lot of guys from the Supra camp are doing. they want something more "practical" and newer technology. i thought you were a bike guy lol

[@FEGTTTSDH]

NOT A RECORD, but very fast

[@DamoIsKeen]

Look at the date dipshit.

[@chrisfelkin3049]

***** lol

[@327gtr]

there are lots of street cars faster than that...its fast but its no record

[@ZxMURDER]

paddle shifters are boring to me! I'd rather swap cogs the original way!

[@boostmd]

=D

[@tpotpo9]

Not close to a world record

[@FEGTTTSDH]

But is more fast than any zr1 or c7 and that is enough

[@ZxMURDER]

fast but what a boring way of shifting!

[@Wopadas]

god no haha
