Roadfly.com - 2009 Nissan GT-R Racetrack Review

We took the new 2009 Nissan GT-R around Reno-Fernley Raceway in Nevada. Ride along with us, as we show you what this 480HP super car can do.

Come on. You know Jezza isn't consistent on his view on the GT-R. When he went to Japan,he loved it so much. In his Thriller documentary,he hated it. His blog,a bit of both. I don't trust his reviews. Great entertainment,but if I want to get true to the heart opinions,I'll read from a more serious person/journalist.

What a Joke, if you know anything about road or track racing, you can't go as fast drifting as if you take the turns correctly - like he does. Any time you drift (friction) you slow down, it's pure physics. And to top it all off, you think he's killing the tires?!? What do you think drifting does? Give them more life?? hahaha

[Fussinated]

@jpsandberg "thanks for proving my point."

???

I said "Drifting causes to lose traction "

You said "Bottom line - drifting causes friction"

Do you know the difference between FRICTION and TRACTION? Also how can something that causes friction can cause traction at the same time?

Are you for real?

[Fussinated]

@jpsandberg "I'm not defending anything. I'm talking about laws of physics"

No you're not.

"you're talking about a single isolated case that proves nothing about the merits of drifting being 'faster' or 'easier on tires' as was the discussion."

Where did I defend such an idea please quote me.

"show the clip of this MG beating those cars. show me that the car is stock and that it won BECAUSE of drifting."

Why not? Explain why someone can't win a race due to drifting?

[jpsandberg]

@Fussinated "Drifting causes to lose traction causing the to be thrown away from the optimum trajectory ending up losing time as well as speed"

thanks for proving my point. Abd somehow you still think it can still be faster? sorry, no amount of drivers skill can offset the laws of physics, regardless how many times u say it 'could be possible'. maybe in an alternate universe that defies laws of physics it could happen, but not in this reality.

I'm starting to think you really are that dense

[jpsandberg]

@Fussinated I'm not defending anything. I'm talking about laws of physics, you're talking about a single isolated case that proves nothing about the merits of drifting being 'faster' or 'easier on tires' as was the discussion. show the clip of this MG beating those cars. show me that the car is stock and that it won BECAUSE of drifting. you can't, so, you have no leg to stand on, yet there you are, still wobbling around like you do. Really, it's pointless, you're obviously only here to argue.

@jpsandberg "All it proves is a lighter car can beat a heavier car, but doesn't prove drifing beats correct driving unless you compare apples to apples"

No, as I suggested, for every rule there is an exception. When the conditions satisfied drifting might well be an advantage.I will remind you again, I already stated that what you said about not drifting is correct, in theory. That is why drivers apply this technique widely.

Why are you desperately trying to defend as if I'm opposing you?

[Fussinated]

@jpsandberg "What I am saying is true in the real world and is governed by laws of physics"

You don't know what you are talking about. Not only that you don;t know what I am trying to communicate, you are on an ego trip.

"Your 'example' does not prove the point that drifting is faster, or easier on the tires as thedaredevilhi is suggesting."

I didn't say drifting is faster, however, I said that drifting might not cause lose time and speed all the time.

[Fussinated]

@jpsandberg "On another note, I am perfectly calm. You're not my father I don''t need your condescending tones. 'Specailly if you say we are just 'talking'."

Well, I don't think I need to be your father to tell you to calm down, however, have it your way, it was a firendly suggestion, I am not responsible from you anyway.

[Fussinated]

@jpsandberg > not to lose time and speed, in theory. Since drift means to lose traction it's harder to adjust and maintain and adjsut speed. Therefore at best each time you drift you have at least one more variable to adjust. This makes driving more complicated and more difficult.

"And what u are saying about the MG is no different than me saying an vette will beat a pinto at the track"

No, not even close. What I am saying is the an MG beat (already happened) a vette as well as many others
