Leh Keen @ VIR wheeling a R35 GT-R Street Car

On all season tires in the rain, so you'll notice he had to slow down some:

I grabbed this off Supraforums where he posted it.

I partied at his house new years 09 in charleston....he blamed me for puking in his trashcan next to his toilet ....wasn't me

what the hell! what's a toilet for, anyway.

Leh Keen = phenom

Great video...it's nice to see what a GTR can actually do in the right hands.

Great lap and it looked like you were having a good time in it! I was a bit worried for the Oak Tree there for a second :-) A GT-R owner friend near Ottawa Canada sent me the youtube link...your his hero now! Do you recall your best lap time in the GSC Supra?

It has SO much more power down grip then the supra.. It can use all of its HP in every situation...

and it feels just as light as Gregs supra somehow too.. even though its 800 pounds heavier!... damn technolojeezus.....

i was very impressed...

Whoa, he's fast!

I'd love to see him throw it through a totally dry lap with better tires.

Nice. I love the GTR

Damn, he was driving the hell out of that thing!

For all the GT-R fans in case you don't already know, Leh is a driver for the TopSpeed / AMS 2011 One Lap of America car:

AMS is happy to announce that we will be joining forces with TopSpeed Motorsports and sponsoring their OneLap of America GT-R Build. The car will be Alpha9 equipped at their facility with our 100% support and backing.

Over the years we have worked with TopSpeed on several different platforms, and they always deliver great results. The addition of our mutual friend Leh Keen wheeling the car only puts icing on the cake as to what we expect out of this team. We are excited to see the progress of the car and follow them during OneLap.

This looks like they got wheels with the wrong offset

until you figure in that they're going with wider carbon fiber fenders
