I just read that HKS has decided to retire their R33 Skyline drag car...You know, the world record holder for a 7.67 second run in Japan? The one that you could win as a prize car in Gran Turismo 2? (which I actually have, how sad is that...) I guess that the combined toll of wear and tear and lack of parts helped HKS in their decision....

long live the GTR!!!!

Here's a sweet video of it making a sub 8-second pass....

sigh...

A Beast!

..eh, its not that quick, I don't see the big deal.

[:)]

maybe they cant make it go faster

My car can do that...

Anyway, we'll see how retired it is. I'm sure it has car shows ahead of it or something. Maybe HKS is planning on using the new GTR and building the piss out of that instead...
