1,300hp GT-R hits nine second 1/4 mile
Last week on Top Gear, Jeremy and James fell quite in love with the new Nissan GT-R's rather smashing launch control function. It made Jeremy's face go all funny.
Had Jeremy had a go in this AMS Performance-tuned Nissan GT-R, his face may well have melted. This is because said GT-R packs 1,300bhp and 1,000lb ft of torque. Even God doesn't have that many torques.
They took the black instrument of destruction to a drag strip and planted a very leaden foot. It recorded a scorching 9.052-second quarter-mile time at 166.7mph. It also recorded a 60mph-130mph time of 3.46 seconds, which in the vast pantheon of absurdity, is frankly, absurd.
