Not true. The car with the higher slalom speed means it's more responsive and will also stick better. The higher lateral G's is going in a circle and seeing when the tires just won't grip anymore. That has a lot to do with better tires.

The NISMO also does .98 G's in a test I saw not .91.

Nice post Nash. I didn't see the new numbers from R&T. So pretty much a dead heat between the two cars.

Edmunds got a .91
Follow-Up Test: 2007 Nissan Nismo 350Z

They got a .97 on the 370.

I can't find the motortrend review, just going on memory so it could certainly be suspect. As Robert says above, these numbers are close enough to be within the tolerance of driver ability.

On a dusty track like they said.
