World challenge Skyline on the chopping block

Not too long ago there was a with a crazy dream guy and Skyline Taikyu race car. One day they decided to go racing at Speed World Challenge. I use to see this on Speed Channel unfortunately it's results are very disappointing. Now I see it's up on ebay. So maybe some else can live the dream. The ebay auction is over but maybe email him with an offer and i'm sure he'll accomodate.

The old auction is here

Shame

As I get freaking old, I have more appreciation and respect for rare automobiles. It's sad when I find fanboys tear up cars that, in time, will gain nostalgic status. Browsing through ebay I found this rare R33 LM edition Skyline GTR. What's sad is that the previous owners turned it into a silly showcar. They're now tired of it and want to sell, typical of a show car owner. Adding insult into injury, they've stripped much of the car into a rolling shell. Not much of a collector anymore unless you just want it for the name. I just find it sad that a car like this ends being the poster child for HIN and ebay. Rather than battling it on track against it's natural foes, putting foot to ass and taking names.

If you wanna place your bid for a bit of GTR history or at least what's left of it, please visit ebay.

Godzilla taken down

It wasn't a Porsche nor a car from barely above water Chevrolet Z06 that took down the mighty GTR. But maybe we're hoping for an Initial D fantasy and the legendary AE86 did what was only done in anime. Well get that out of your head, a plain jane Mitsubishi Evolution battled the baddest Nissan ever made, like a modern day David and Goliath, and took home some bragging rights. From what I hear the driver, 20 year old, piloted the beast. The level of driving skill is unknown, but it goes to show that without skill even the most technologically advanced vehicle is just plain useless. But at least he done it in battle and not crashing into a pole trying to show off to the bitches and bro's. But let's get smart and keep it on track.

Nissan PSA: Responsibility

To all those who own a R35 Nissan GTR or thought of purchasing was soon, make sure you read your owners manual and take responsibility for your actions. Please don't be like this guy.
