Found this very intresting video.....It would have been the first R35 caught of camera crashing, but the driver saved it.....Very close call.

The Steven Jones driven Nissan R35 GT-R has taken outright victory in the 2008 Quit Targa West making this the first competition win worldwide for the production GT-R. Jones takes a second honour of being the youngest winner of the Targa West at just 24 years old.
Steven really shows how strong he as a driver is and how good the Nissan GT-R is when you consider the experience and speed of the teams he has beaten out in this event. Jim Richards in his Porsche 911 GT2, for example, is a Targa winning machine taking victory in the Targa West and the Targa Tasmania more often than not in the past 10 years.
To top it off, the Nissan GT-R was on factory run-flat tires while competitors were on R-compound tires.
Congratulations to the Fabcar team, amazing job at winning the first time out in the new GT-R!
