Actually I think we have an idea - you don't like them domestic and purpose built to race in the GT class-- I mean you just said so - with your jab at "catering to the import crowd" - right?

I am also guessing since you didn't say something like "Wow nice car, but bad name.." you probably don't like it..

Which is what we all know - and the "Mines" Skyline would not own it... they would be able to compete in the GT class - in fact both may need to be detuned to qualify for the GT class limits.

Why would they do this for the import crowd? It is pegged to be a factory provided race car.

And I never criticized the Skyline on it's merits or it's sole claim to the GT-R moniker - I simply said "if you want the name back - let's race for it".
