**** YEAH!
Congrats to the Godzilla team.
Only its 2nd or 3rd outing right? Can't wait to see it dig deeper into the 6 second zone @ well over 205mph.
Shame about it going V6 once they get the car running in the mid 6's.

It says the car will have a V6 in it once they are happy with where the RB engine is at.
"Mark has said once he's achieved what he wants with the RB, the chassis will cop a VR (R35 GT-R motor) which is currently in the build."

Either way once it cops the V6 i'm sure he will give the scene a much needed shake up! Look out 2J and Rotors....

If I'd kicked the world's butt with an RB and then taken it to the 2J's in competition I'd want a new challenge too. There can be no doubt that the V6 is the next level for sport compact drag racing.

Well now we know that an RB30 can and has run well over 200mph and has successfully held together.

V6's seem to be the new 2J's.
Speaking as an avid RB fan, it's a shame the engine won't be in there for much longer but you've definitely raised a valid point, i believe they're (V6 racers) going to take the scene to the next level. Can't discredit the Barra either but i don't see it happening in the next year or two though.
