The video is incredible, made me smile just watching! 8.9 second quarter mile is incredible. Truly a "super" car.

Wow.

 

[Dman8777]

Is it faster than a supra yet?

 

[LTC8K6]

I think it still might not be faster than a GC SRT8 with comparable horses...

Why does it take 1500hp to make a GTR go 8 seconds?

What? The GTR is making a LOT more power than the Jeep. It's not just the weight difference.

GTR 8.975 @ 169mph
Jeep 9.46 @ 145.35mph

It had a poor 1.668 60' time. Very ginger launch.

Right, the Jeep would probably be quicker. Likely due to it's ability to launch.

I don't follow... Why would the Jeep be quicker if it's posting a slower time while launching more aggressively than the GTR?

I said "with comparable horses". The Jeep has less power.

Yaay GTR fanboi circlejerk. Truly the first car to get into 8 seconds or 1500hp. The real accomplishment I see here is that they didn't crop dust the strip with transmission parts.

i don't think it is really that impressive a 1500hp car ran an 8sec 1/4 mile...

I do think the fact the GTR made 1500HP in itself is pretty impressive though

 

[CraigRT]

It's already impossible for me to not smile when I see a GT-R just on the street.

<3 Nissan.
