A Whupping? Really? "Nissan GT-R NISMO is our winner by the smallest of margins"

I should hope so, considering the price that the GT-R has ballooned to in recent years. Even ignoring dealer mark-up when it was initially released and the fact that the base model was replaced with the premium, the price is in a completely different league now.

Yeah, but this is the first rendition of the Z06s. This one had overheating problems and other bugs that are common with "1st generation" new cars. A revised one will match or beat the Nismo Gt-R

Motortrend has this same article. And yeah I was impressed at how the Nisbo was that fast in the 1/4, its trapspeed etc. with less hp and torque. But the GT-R is getting long in the tooth.

LMAO Yea the Z06 goes into limp mode when it gets hot. We know that one. Also the mustangs go into limp mode too when it's oil gets hot too.

Actually this is could be considered the 2nd rendition as the aero's were improved for handling around turns on a track and still lost. Yes, of course a future revised edition will eventually beat this Nismo, but then the Nismo will be revised and so forth. Kind of a mute point.

Yes, the Nismo stock is impressive in the 1/4 as well as a full track. Mizuno san understood how to get the power to the ground.

Reason For Corvette Not Doing So Well
Suspension was 2 degrees off center.
Rematch?

What????? the guy keeps saying caster on the rear. Camber will make that a big difference on the rear, not caster. I smell pile of stinky BS. The Vette lost, get over it.

Agree. There is no caster on the rear to speak of. And if something was OFF in the rear. What does that say of quality control!

Well, my 12' 370z Nismo is on rails. The stock suspension is very very good out of the box. I can only imagine what a GTR Nismo is like. I beat it is awesome. They sure spent mucho time at the Nurberg ring with it.
