McLaren P1 vs Nissan GT-R Black: Street Race

TXSTYLE · 08-06-2014, 11:26 AM

Well sort of...

Even if P1 wasn't going all out (and who's to say) once again, GODZILLA proves why it is among the "Legends of the auto world".

If anything, it was a heckuva video moment!

LOL P1 wasant even trying.

TSM330i · 08-06-2014, 06:35 PM

Did someone tell the P1 he was "racing?"

TXSTYLE · 08-06-2014, 07:50 PM

Just so you know... According to both manufacturers stats and independent testing:

P1 0-60 2.6sec

GT-R 0-60 2.8sec

It is safe to say that none of us were there inside either vehicle to know just how "much effort" was being made. What the above numbers do tell us is that even had Mr. P1 been going all out, the GT-R would have been right there! I'm talking within it's body length there. I give credit where it is due.
Now which would I have in my garage given the opportunity, P1 all day every day any day!

What I want to know is why the camera car was making so much of an effort to show his steering wheel badge during the video...

I believe he was attempting to show his speedo.

Isn't the P1 a high 9 sec car and the GTR is a high 10 sec car? If so, he would put car lengths on a GTR if he was trying.

1. i'm in complete lust with the P1. it's impossible not to love.

2. when there's only a .2 sec difference, just the slightest misstep will make the difference.

Haha, actually I did want to know what car that was with such a cheap plastic steering wheel.

I get all of that. They didn't have the road to approach 1/4 mile.
