Spec V On Motorweek

[Ron A]

Just saw the SE-R Spec V on Motorweek. I managed to tape it on the tape
that had Motorweek's test of the 1991 SE-R and the 2000 Sentra SE PP.
The results:
91 Classic  0-60  7.5   1/4 mile  15.9@89mph
00 Sentra SE PP  0-60  8.3  1/4 mile  16.3@84mph
02 Spec V  0-60  7.1  1/4 mile  15.5@90mph.

Obviously the Spec V was faster. What concerned me was the wheel hop on
the Spec V on the 1/4 mile run and the lifting of the inside rear wheel
when driven through the cones. Neither of the other two cars did that.

One last thing, I have to agree with my wife about the red seats in the
blue car. Yuck! Nice seats, but come on Nissan!
