Last sunday was the first 10 of the best event and was a good day with 0-500m,1.25mile topspeed run and handling course head to heads between tuned Skylines,Gtirs,Supras,Cosworths(Fords),Imprezas,Ev os,Vipers,GTOs etc.
Some very quick cars there,which unfortunately were generally quicker than the Gtirs-understandable considering a power difference of 100+bhp.
Results are here.

You should have seen the GTiR with a 1.6SR badge on the back packing around 350bhp for unsuspecting roadracers.
The Skyline that did 196mph in only 1.25 miles was absolutely awesome .In second place was a Ford Escort Cosworth(a small family hatchback over here)that hit nearly 190mph from a 2l turbo!!!!!!.The fastest GTiR had top back off after about 130mph as he was running in a new engine(on ONLY 1.5bar)and thought it was detting.
The sprint times don't look that impressive until you read it's over 500m,not 1/4mile(400m).

Those are some really amazing cars... especially that skyline. Looks like it could almost run a 10 in the 1/4. I've always liked the Cosworth Escorts... too bad Ford never sold them over here.

There aren't that many big power 200sx's in the UK,though NorrisDesigns(the same company that owns the 587bhp white evo with green graphics)have one that's around 400ish bhp from the 1.8turbo engine that's hit 167mph before.
