AMS ALPHA 12 Makes History - World's FIRST 8 Second R35 GT-R

History has been made! On Tuesday July 26th our AMS ALPHA 12 GT-R went back to the track with a little more favorable weather conditions. The result was the World's First 8 Second R35 GT-R!

Even with a 1.668 60 foot time, the ALPHA 12 driven by our own Special Projects Technician, Ivan Phipps, went 8.975@169.49 mph!

60 foot 1.668
330ft 4.166
1/8th mile 6.042
1/8 mph 132.74
1000ft 7.634
1/4 8.975
1/4 mph 169.49

In addition the 60-130 time record was broken again with a 3.34 second blast from 60-130mph!! This makes the AMS Alpha 12 GT-R the fastest recorded street car to date from 60-130 mph!!!

Not bad for a true street car with air conditioning and all the other amenities of a GTR. You can drive this car to the store or across the country!

Of course all of our sponsors, without your support this would of been much more difficult. Your parts put us over the top!

@DodgeBoy223 You can improve the actual suspension all you want, but the Gtr body/ chasis was meant for handling and high g's, reinforced carbon and aluminum frames that reduce body roll drastically whereas those chargers and old cuda were not, so NO as much suspension you do to it, it wont compete with the GTR in handling, it will be better for handling but if the actual chasis isn't reiforced or modified it still wont put up stats like the GTR on the tracks, muscle cars are for straights....

Lol. These peeps will argue any point made by anyone. That guy down there arguing about old Plymouths running 8's and such. And yeah it's all true. Come down to Baytown Texas and see a bunch of POS's run mid 8's all day .. But I guarantee they don't have a passenger seat, AC or a scrap of carpet covering the floor much less leather seats and the amenities of a car like the GTR. AMS made a RELIABLE track car! So those guys with the 8 second beaters car think they did it first but t

"The AMS alpha12 has more than 3 times the horsepower of the stock GTR. It goes from 60 to 120 in half the time that a ZR1 does, and that's straight line racing, where the heavy ZR1 should be the better vehicle."

Well would you look at that, a car with 3x the horsepower of a stock GTR beat a corvette zr1. What a fucking surprise.

I have come to the conclusion based on your posts against me that you are just a bumbling idiot.

@jkutyna

The ZR1 comes with those tires stock from the factory. What is your point here? Fuel to the least? Lol that doesn't make a difference in cars like the Vette and GTR you retard. Your just pissed because the zr1 beat the GTR. Stop with the fucking excuses.

[mozaks80]

LOL at the ZR-1 fanboys, gotta give it to you, even when you're the losing team you still seem to carry on with such gusto! I love giggling at your comments.

@TheRareone777 The ZR-1 is not a muscle car, but it still beats the GTR on the track and straits.
