Gearing and Traction Control is what got the GT-R to this point now, to get to 60 mph in 2 seconds flat is going to take power and a lot of weight loss.

The Bugatti Veyron Super Sport is officially the fastest accelerating production car in the world. The Super Sport makes 1,200hp/1,106 lb-ft. It does 0-60mph in 2.46 seconds. It weighs 4,053 lbs.
The Lamborghini Sesto Elemento Concept has AWD and similar HP that the GTR will have (570hp), and does 0-60 mph in 2.5 seconds


The difference is that the Sesto weighs 2,200 lbs

Ken Block's Gymkhana 3 Ford Fiesta has 650 hp/660 lb-ft, weighs 2,425 lbs and does 0-60 mph in 1.9 seconds on RACE TIRES

Now if Nissan can find some way to make a car that weighs an additional 1,000 lbs and has approx 100 fewer hp accelerate as fast on street tires as Block's car did on race tires, then I would have to crown them the best ever!
Oh and almost forgot, the AMS Alpha Omega GT-R! It does 0-60 mph in 1.72 seconds...but it has 1,700 hp.
