6spd pre-production car. They even said the production model will perform better.

If you look at the car's 0-30 time, it is a turtle-like 2.5 seconds. Most cars today are easily a half-second quicker to 30 mph. For whatever reason, R&T couldn't get that car to connect off the line and consequently the times are slow.

A Corvette requires about 1.5 seconds to reach 30 mph. A WRX or Evo requires about 1.2 seconds to reach 30 mph (thanks to AWD and clutch abuse). If a Maxima driver could manage a reasonable 2.0 second 0-30 time, the 0-60 time would drop to 6.0 seconds and the quarter mile time would drop to 14.5 seconds. That's stock. Add your modifications and it only gets quicker.
