Nissan GT-R vs LP640 rolling dragrace [video]
Just watched this on another car site and I'm quite impressed by the outcome. Although these japanese tests seem to be quite subjective and often produce some interesting results, this does show how quick the new Skyline is in a straight line.

Subjective, but the LP640 still had about 3.5 cars on the GT-R.

what is LP's redline? 8k? or 8.5k?
if it is 8k then they were shifting at the redline.
i have the full version video and he was indeed shifting at 8k.

I'll say it again... both cars are being short-shifted. It'd be unfair if one was and one wasn't but that's not the case.
