I love it! Hoping Ford has a plan for putting the power down, though. According to one of the rags that got to test one of the mules they think the car will be running mid 11s with the launch control system. And we'll see if they ever release a Nurburgring time.

On street tires, no. I don't think anyone has suggested it will.

Would like to see what a stock one would do on some drag slicks.

Car looks insane. Nothing quite like underrating your car at 650 hp

yeah but when you get into slicks that changes thing im just saying i mean 662 and no 10s... thats pretty bad.... what did that super snake run a few yerar back? i know it got dusted by the "old" GTR

what would that 900 hp shelby 1K do like 10.9?

How is it bad? What would a RWD GT-R run?

People need to be realistic when they think about 1/4 mile times for a RWD car like this... on street tires. It's not going to hook like AWD.

N'Ring Time: 4

4 what, you ask? Four mules totaled trying to take the first corner.

"technically" on full acceleration like a drag strip the GTR is 98% RWD
so with DCT LC and 545 hp the hypothetical fan boy bench racer in my says it would probably be faster than you think faster than a LFA probably ..so 11.4 ish i bet so maybe .6 off

but yeah i know im just saying when you see these outrageous #'s on a car thats meant to go straight for the most part anyway you just assume its should be faster than it is... if you cant use the 662 then what... and the 2nd most talked about internet bench mark is 60-130 it would fare a little better there

like i saw this article and looking at the performance #s i was confused
