Read my post again. I essentially state that the GT500 requires driver skill to be driven quickly where the Z is more forgiving of less experienced drivers. If I were to lap VIR in both cars, I guarantee I'd be faster in my Z. I wasn't posting Michael Schumacher's experience with both cars, just my own. Driven by someone who can handle the GT500, it'll lap faster than a Z due to the straightaway speeds it can achieve. This is purely a horsepower advantage. The GT500 suspension is archaic and inferior to the Z, and the Z could definitely achieve higher cornering speeds.
