Matt Watson from Car Wow conducts a drag racing comparison between three Nissan GT-Rs with varying horsepower: 650hp, 1000hp, and 1600hp. The cars are put through a standing quarter-mile drag race and rolling starts from 30mph in second gear and 50mph in third gear. The 1600hp GT-R wins the standing quarter-mile in 9.2 seconds, followed by the 1000hp GT-R in 10.3 seconds, and the 650hp GT-R in 11.3 seconds. The cars are also tested in a braking test from 70mph, with the results highlighting the importance of proper brake maintenance. Throughout the video, Matt discusses the upgrades and modifications made to each car and interacts with the owners and tuners.
