The 1997 GMC Jimmy 3dr 4.3 V6 194 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated car of 1,678 kg with 190 bhp, which works out at 113 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 113 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.81 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 8,758th quickest to 60 mph, and the 10th quickest of the 10 GMCs here. Its 81.7 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.
