IF YOU HAVE 9.88 SECONDS YOU HAVE TIME TO WATCH THIS Earlier this week, a few enthusiastic clients rented out South Florida's excellent PBIR to run a few friendly "grudge match" drag races. Among the attendees was one awesome R900 GTR on 20" Switzer Tech 107 rims and DOT rubber and a screaming yellow, twin-turbo Gallardo.
They lined up. The lights turned green. They blasted down the track.
If you've been following the exploits of our R-package GTR Nissans over the last few years, you already know who wins!
It was a great day, a great event, and we met tons of great people from PBIR, Dragtimes, and Audio Advisors - we can't wait to get back to Florida and do it all again soon!
Last weekend's Moscow Unlimited could have been a commercial for our bolt-on kits, with the top 3 cars running Switzer tuning packages.
The 997 TT that took top honors in the 1/4 mile drags featured our 997 TT L4 PKG and lightweight signature series wheels, while the mile-winning GTR Nissan featured our off-the-shelf P800 plus cooling kit.
We are very proud of our Russian teammates out there - they are great guys, brave guys, crazy guys, and we're proud to have them as customers.

These are not one-off builds or "shop" cars - these are off-the-shelf customer kits that ANYONE can buy and run! Great stuff, and congrats to Tym, Mike, Dmitri, Yuriy, and Oleg.
A few weeks ago, some other shops started posting 10.4 sec. 1/4 mile runs and 134 mph trap speeds and claiming GTR "records" at sanctioned tracks.
We've never claimed our GTR tuning packages would be record-breakers, and we certainly haven't set them up to be drag-racers (in fact, we developed the GTR PKG specifically as a road-course trackday PKG!) but that doesn't mean our 800 hp pump-gas car P800 GTR Nissan can't get down the road ... witness the runs above, consistent 10.4xx second runs at 132-133 mph.
I know, I know: these runs are not on a track, not sanctioned, etc. They're also not too far off that record, considering this is an off-the-shelf package that's been proven in 20-odd customer cars around the world, either!
