When we finally arrived at the Bonneville Salt Flats late yesterday afternoon, we found most of it covered in five inches of water. The GT-R may have achieved mythical status over the years, but even the R35 can't walk on the wet stuff.
There was, however, a long, desolate access road, so we decided to shoot a quick video of the launch control in action from inside the car. Hope it gives you some idea how violent it is when this thing takes off...
We'll have to come back later to see how the GT-R feels at its top speed of 193 mph.

Very nice! Did you actually get it to 190+?
If you get around to making that wallpaper, please make another version 2560x1600.
Thank you for your time guys.
