Watch the world's first eight second GTR

Last week we told you about the world's fastest R35 GTR through the 1/4 mile, built by AMS Performance. Since we last spoke about this car, the company has managed to take their 1300+ horsepower creation from a low nine second car to a high eight second car and produced this interesting video to go along with it.

Anyone questioning how impressive this is should keep in mind this 1300 horsepower Nissan still has all of the amenities and functionality you might expect from a stock GTR, which translates into a pretty heavy car on drag radials. According to AMS the car remains a street car that you "can drive to the store or across the country." There certainly aren't too many other eight second cars you can say that about.
