Few people in the GT-R world haven't at least heard the name Gidi or Gideon. He has become ingrained in R35 GT-R folklore as one of the most passionate GT-R fanatics in the world. Last summer Gidi, like many seasoned racers suffered an on track incident. Sadly this particular case resulted in the total loss of his beloved blue GT-R. Walking away without a bump or a scratch Gidi would not be defeated. He did what any logical GT-R fanatic would do....he started building a better one.
With TX2K coming up I thought I would share some of the progress pictures of Gidi's latest project dubbed the ALPHA G. The goal for ALPHA G was simple....Give her all she's got without making it a full blown race car. It had to be quicker than anything we have built and it had to go faster than anything we have built. So far its shaping up to do JUST THAT!!!
We still have a lot of work to do but for now here are some pretty wild pictures of what is shaping up to be our most monstrous GT-R build yet.
As we get more pictures and the finished product I will post it all here. Disregard the finish on the parts as most will be coated or anodized after they have been completed. Please also note the motor in the engine is simply a dummy motor for mock-up purposes.
