It's traction limited anyway. 11.4 doesn't mean much more than that the tire is warm and surface is not bad.
I also wonder how long it would take for this channel to realize how critical of an indicator the trap speed is.

How the hell did a RWD M3 keep up with an AWD GTR and a Mustang with drag radials?! Not to mention they both have 200+ HP over the G80? Wtf

Also it's manual. A human can't possibly shift faster than a fast shifting automatic in a straight line.

Well the GTR was manual. As for the Mustang, I'm assuming 1) the tires weren't warmed up sufficiently... and 2) it shows the strength of launch control in the M3. Let the computer sort out the traction off the line as opposed to a person and this is the result you get.

No, the GTR being manual has nothing to do with it. A manual proper 800hp R34 will do low 10's on street rubber. That one was just broken.

That's mustang is much faster than 12.2 in 1/4 lol
20 years ago I built a fox body with stroked pushrod 351W and C4 Auto that ran 12.2. Drop the pressure & Heat up the tires fella!!

I'm sure these guys have been around fast cars long enough to figure out the basics of heat and pressure…I'm sure the owner was probably standing right there off camera checking tire pressures |

If an R34 GTR was available today in the USA then I would take that over the new G80 M3. Especially if it was in that dark gray color… man brings me back.

Great car however Nissan is a garbage car company that is now completely drowning and probably will be canceling their GTR soon enough considering how poor they're doing financially
