Anybody see it last night? It was a Jetta mark V, a Cobalt SS, and a Skyline.

Judging on exterior, interior and performance. All categories based on improvements over stock.

First category- Dyno.

Jetta- like +22Hp over stock.
Cobalt- ~ +35Hp over stock.

Not bad numbers I suppose until...

Skyline- +541Hp over stock!!!!11!11 WTF?? Game over.

Their differential locked up on the track and the stock one blew up. All in all not a good day for the Nissan team. They declared it a 3-way tie because everybody sucked.

Yeah... They replay that whole segment all the time. Kinda sad that they didn't pay any attention to the driveline.
