Well given the amount of dust that was on the track, I'm not surprised.

Put a competition Kart there and will do as good as the Juke-R on that track. Entertaining but not meaningful. Try to put aside a Juke-R and a Veyron on the same track. Guess who's the winner...

are u really comparing a car that has 10 more cylinders, 2 more turbos and costs 900k more? this is meaningful, otherwise you wouldnt have watched, and they wouldnt have raced it against a bunch of supercars, carts are not street legal, the juke is, you can drive it everyday rain or snow, and it can smoke just about any street legal car u put it up against, and you do realize all that comes from a small suv right? lol

dont know why u shot this guy down boys. this tuned juke realy is a joke. it looks like a freaking mole...even worse. yes it is powerful, nissan UK did a great job with the conversion, they are very good engineers, but this video ..as manualtrans said, is bull. just imagine any of u guys, in this car, and along next to you comes a guy with an gallardo, or sls. dont care about the price, id pick any of the 3. as for "snobism", nissan is a brand too, dont worry, they own their fair share of "snobism" too. this tuned juke doesent strips these 3 sueprcars of their status. but ill tell what nissan can do to outwit the establishment. build an FX-R (i mean a real FXR, with 5 seats, a luxorious interior etc etc. not with a roll cage like this juke) and price it lower than the XM5, cayenne turbo s, ML-AMG.

Guys, common - this shows that the Nissan is the better engineered car - shove your badge snobbery up your arses!!

Get real ladies, Nissan showed that they do anything to any of their cars and that Juke is one cannon ball

there are too many Nissan flags around the circuit which
destroys the credibility of the video and make it look like
a promotional one for Nissan. however, you have to give the engineers
credits for what they did to the Juke.

The track favours agile cars as it has a lot of turns and few straight lines. Put a Lotus Elise/Exige in there an it will outlap all of them. The track is not about power but agility in the corners.

There's too many things that could explain the results - too short a track to overtake, highly expensive cars that nobody wants to damage, poor race conditions. I'd be curious how it would turn out if there were 4 races, each car re-positioned to allow a new front-runner. I know that Nissan has some great insight with the GT-R, and I'm sure that given this Juke is essentially bodywork on top of a GT-R I would expect it to keep up - if not win. Still, this vehicle is downright ugly. I see virtually none on the road around where I live.

Obviously the guys in the sports cars are not pushing it. Plus, the Juke still loses for added UGLY points.

im not sure what Nissan is trying to prove here. Obviously Lambo, Ferrari & AMG don't want to waste their time trying to prove that their engines are better by putting it in lesser cars.
Don't u Juke guys get it? What a "JUKE" (joke).
