It is fair to say that GT-R is almost invincible and has the best value for money in terms of acceleration. But sometimes, as with all cars, it breaks down… This was the case when we were shooting 0-400m of this particular R35. Unfortunate incident but at least noone was injured…

The differential gear broke… just as it accelerated with a “bang”… We came across a very old video clip put together by GM on differential gear and it, probably, is still the best tutorial video.

GT-Rは加速においてほとんどのライバルを寄せつけませんし、コストパフォーマンスを考えれば世界最強です。でも、どんな車でも壊れることはあり、GT-Rも例外ではありません。0－400m加速を計測しようとしていたこのR35、大きなノイズとともに加速していったのですが・・・、デフを破壊。

白黒のビデオはGMが何十年も前に作ったデフについての解説ビデオで、今でも最も分かりやすい説明だと思う次第です（笑）。
