Hey James, I think a rear seat delete & rollbars + bucket seats (I would recommend recaro sportster cs nismo is enough for street use) should be the next on the list for the gtr. and I think you shall consider Toyo R888R tires & definitely as you say, a brake upgrades to stop that godzilla.
1:36 - That wheel edit sequence! I know (with the hiss sound at the end) that 8 second sequence probably took at least an hour to edit! God bless you Luke x
The races were all so sick! It was so fun to watch. Hope to see another one again soon! I've never watched anything like that before. Totally worth the drive from Egypt (aka Bluffdale).
That was coming from the RS3. 😳 For context, I got to watch in person and that RS3 was beating the Tesla Plaid and literally every other car but the GTR still absolutely gapped the RS3. Insane.
I loved being able to see you bring the gtr out and race. It was an amazing event. I hope to be able to meet you sometime or even see you driving around here in Utah. Keep up the grind 💪
If I could have been there I would have gone just to see that gtr in person cause man that thing is so cool. Also I love the casual blooper moments of Luke talking about his eyes being closed from start to finish and Stephan singing “are you ready to lose”😂😂😂
Hey I love you James, but I really think you should make the GTR safer. 1500 hp is nothing to mess with, and certain precautions need to be taken to make sure you don’t kill yourself. We’re talking proper tires, a role cage, things like that. Please consider doing these things.
I have been waiting for this video to see if I could catch a glimpse of my car in it.. 🤣 not even a random wrap around shot. I went frame by frame all day.. 🤣 And I was like 5 cars behind strads GTR vs Tesla plaid race! 😭 Maybe next time. I had a blast @TheStradman Thank you so much for hosting the event. I hope there is another one coming soon! That BUG KIllA is absolutely insane. And it's so much louder in person than it sounds in the videos. That RX7 that passed by popping was absolutely insanely louder than humanly possible.. It was a great time. Hopefully you come out on may 28th for the next roll race event.
I’ve unsubscribed from a lot of other car RU-vid pages James as they have lost their way, your page though is getting stronger, more entertaining and your energy is super positive. The addition of Luke to the channel and the chemistry between you both is a winner.
@@austincrawley7359 he’s obviously doing something right to be fair I’ve not watched a lot of his stuff but I think that’s probably because of the fact I’ve finally Reached sad old man status and he’s a little to Saturday morning kids telly for me I make you right Austin 👍😬
Dude I’ve been watching you forever and you are by far my favorite RU-vidr. I am so glad you bought an r35 and fully built it cause that is literally my dream car and you’re the #1 person I’d wanna watch drive it
Definitely made my sons year coming and seeing the races. Hes bragged all weekend about seeing the cars and that rx7 that was so ridiculous loud haha we went walking around the lot and he rolled in redline blowing flames, literally rattled my skeleton haha
@@Shameinator Upgraded steel racing brake kit better than the Nissan supplied factory carbon ceramics brakes? lol the theme of this car isn't "cost effectiveness"
Very entertaining. 2 points. 1, Racing at 150 mph, you should have a helmet with the hans device and maybe a fire suit. 2. Bouncing off the 2 step will destroy your engine at some point.
@@kriptic3085 That's a relief. We appreciate him and he has a propensity to walk on cliffs and drive like nothing can go wrong. Cleetus was the same but got serious when a couple of guys got hurt.
Damn always wanted a gtr white on black so quick, but TheStradman i remember watching one of your earlier vid buying your first gallardo lambo I believe you were so excited but this now I can see your on another level, congrats on your success more than half a billion views on a single video pretty lit.
Bro my jaw hurts from smiling so much throughout this whole video. Up until now the Ferrari challenge car has been my favorite car you have ever owned it but the bug killer/plant killer will instantly make anybody smile. Proud of you my dude keep it up!
James i cant express the happiness u gave me when the Bug killer destroyed the plaid. now i am a internal combustion fan for life was bfr too but then too
I’ve been in a plaid, and it’s awesome. A great car. But I gotta admit, it was awesome seeing the GTR beat the Tesla. James, please get a roll cage, better brakes, and racing seats + harnesses in the GTR. We want you to be safe. (Side Note: Luke is a crazy good driver. That Anti-Lag he did against the RS3 was crazy!)
I’m not going to lie, I wasn’t in love with the gtr when he James first got it. But now it’s one of my favorite cars in the collection just because of what they’ve done with it.
James you need slicks for the track. Your AWD system WITH slicks that thing will HOOK AND SLAM THAT POWER DOWN. You also NEED A FULL ROLL CAGE AND HARNESSES. you’re dealing with serious power. Get a fat pair of slicks for the track and a wider set of the stickiest tires you can find for street you. And make sure TC is off. Might now hurt to get a parachute as well. I don’t think you really realize the amount of power you’re playing with. ***ALSO THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT*** you HAVE TO FIND WHEELS THAT CAN HANDLE THAT POWER. NOT MANY COMPANIES ARE PRODUCING WHEELS THAT CAN HANDLE ALMOST 1600 WHP. you really need to invest in brakes badly. You need to understand. This isn’t a gtr anymore. It’s literally a hypercar with the speeds and power it’s putting down. We don’t want to see you end up in a bad wreck man. Please upgrade everything you possibly can to make yourself safe. Including fire extinguishers.
STRAD this was easily one of your best videos you have made. That BugMfKiller is crazy like you had talked about… this video gives me chill I’m so happy for you! I have been following you since you started. Keep going man.
Yeah, at this rate its just a waiting game until something bad happens. 1500hp car, with a patch in the tire, with no cage, or suit, or harness, and shit brakes Surprised they even let his death trap machines on a track What could possibly go wrong
The impressive GTR is drawing more points since Stradman gotten it. Its breathtaking design makes it a regal chic. James one car endless possibilities....stay safe ...regards from Kuala Lumpur Malaysia 🇲🇾
TheStradman Awesome Video and Congratulations on beating that Tesla Model S Plaid in the Bugkiller I knew you could and I can't wait to see what other super fast the Bugkiller will beat
Haven't watched the video yet, I'm actually curious to see a plaid against the GTR and honestly I don't know who'll win. You're way lighter and have like 50% more power, will that beat the instant insane torque and advanced traction control? I'm excited to see P.s.: please fit a chute and roll cage on the GTR, man! 1600whp are no joke! Proper tires would also make you faster and safer!
@@PaiN-ob9un embarrassed is a strong word, im just saying everyone knows the plaids strength is off the line and the gtr is better at top end. i still want to see it from a stand still
