Dealers drag racing new GT-R's @ Great Lakes Dragaway

Took these photos at Great Lakes Dragaway in Union Grove, WI on Sunday. Some guys rolled in with these GT-R's with Dealer plates and decided to drag them over and over and over. Interested differences in trap speeds and 1/4 mile times though. Definately not pro's as they had to be reminded over and over to wear a helmet.



If I were you, I would not buy these. Wish I was able to get VIN #'s.















Nice glasses

I only hope these are not dealership cars that they are intending to sell to the general public. Aside from the ethnical considerations, these may not even been broken into yet.

I'm not doubting they are. Rolled in with dealer plates. Removed dealer plates to race (probably to avoid being in photos).

Plastic still on the seats is a bad sign. Any owner would have removed that.

Hopefully Nissan would see this and getting rid of these people. They look like the managers.

It doesn't make sense for them to do this, why put miles on a high demand car? They might end up having to sell it as a demo car at MSRP

That's a bit disappointing, I had 26 miles on mine when it was delivered. You need to get these faces out there and send the pictures to NNA.

If you can find a dealer lot in the area with two titanium GT-R you will have your men and I would defiantly report them to NNA.

At least send this to the guys at GTRblog.com.

Damm, I can't stand dealers like that! You should have called the BBB, maybe the would know if they broke some kind of law?
