Glad you are enjoying the clip... to answer a couple of questions, the tyres were (a) Nittos for circuit, and (b) Mickey Thompson ET-Street grooved DOT-legal for drag. And yes, the driver in the circuit clips is Nick Jenkins, yes, he is the owner of the car- our pilot for Drag racing was Glenn Suckling, who went on to build his own Drag GT-R under the GDS Motorsport Red Baron logo, he ran a couple of seaons under Mag and Turbo colours and sponsorship. And yes, we still own the Skyline!

And to clear up any confusion, this is our Croydon Wholesalers Drag GT-R from New Zealand, no relation to Croydon Racing Developments in Australia. Car was transformed from a Japanese Wangan racer into what you see here in our Henderson, Auckland workshop. Just after these clips were shot, we ran at Ohakea Airbase and recorded a top speed of 205mph at rev limit in 6th, reached it just over the mile mark from a standing start. Clip of this soon!

Thanks for the comments, yes, this is our Drag GT-R prior to a chassis upgrade into a dedicated (but street-legal) 8.55-second 1/4 mile machine on ET Streets. These clips shot just after the install of the Holinger 6-spd sequential, Nick was getting to grips with it here. Wild rides to be had! I'll post up more clips here soon from the Croydon "archives"... Cheers!
