BUT WHICH HAS BETTER INTERIOR QUALITY???
^ :lol:
How far did they race?
1/4 times?
that would be a fun car to screw with people in… and embarrass them
In for Nissan fanboi’s responses
I’m sorry, but this is the epitome of stupid. Its a fucking 6000lb [PLUS] truck that very likely still cant turn or stop to save YOUR life. If you want to go fast in a truck, do it in an SRT8 or a TBSS. You know, something of remotely manageable size and weight? Whats next, a 2000 horsepower H1 or a 5000 horsepower tractor trailer? Give me a break.
Maybe I just don’t get it… but it seems like an awful waste of effort. To each their own I guess… but not mine. I wouldn’t feel safe SELLING that to the general public knowing that some moron is probably going to try and do 150 in that brick, lose it, and take out a bus full of nuns or something…
Maybe they have money and don’t care?
LMAO stolen

obviously, that must be the case. I just think it looks like an idea that West Coast Customs would have for one of their “clientele”
Kind of a silly comparison, but w/e. Put enough horsepower in anything and it will go fast. The GT-R does a mid-11 sec 1/4 mile at best I think. So that SUV is hauling ass.
You can make anything fast. I can’t watch the video. Is the gtr stockish?
It’s Hennessey, so I wonder how many will actually be delivered vs how many end up as Escalade shells.
Stock 2011
They just used a stock GTR as a baseline to show how fast their TT kit can make an Escalade. Cool.
looks like a head start for the escalaid
I think it’s a sweet sleeper who expects it to be quick?
wow…a whole lot of twisted up panties in this thread.
finalgts, i think you missed the part where the brakes are upgraded on that escalade so it probably can “stop” pretty well.
i think suv’s are oversized minivans, but im a fan of fast trucks. nothing wrong with doing something different and doing what you want to do. :tup:
They could have easily detuned the GTR to make the race favorable for the escalade. Or just short shifted the hell out of it. I would think a 11sec escalade would not be on street tire to not spin from a stop like that. They did brake torque the escalade and not the GTR and it did get a jump…
yeah the car is cool if you’re it’s what you’re looking for. Some people in here were obviously out to hate on the GT-R as usual.
Because they couldn’t launch in 4wd???
