Wow great pics! Did you go to the event? I had my mind set on going but things had come up. The Vertex Soarer is looking mean.

That G35 was awesome, the front brakes were the size of my foot and I wear a size 12-13.

the best part about that car is how luxurious it is and yet how badass....the transmission is actually in the rear! 50:50 weight dist. is important when you're going over 212mph hehe
