Paul Diemer prefers the latter and attempts to build his GT-R to gain access to club RH-9.

·       588whp, 482lb-ft

·       From bare shell to the baddest 2G Eclipse around in just four days; that was the goal facing Edward Deiure that he had neither planned nor prepared for.

IDRC Season Opens in Norwalk

 

·       Despite the negative weather forecasts, a number of die-hard racers did make it to the track. One particular hope was to see if the Buschur Racing demo car would be making any passes with its 4-speed clutchless transmission.
