Ok, so your saying that only in the extremely specific scenario of the special edition Genesis vs a stock Z on a track that is built for heavy braking the Genesis would win? Honestly if that's the only way it can win, where do you derive that it is a 'better car' based on a highly specified test bed? Shouldn't the 'Best Car' idea go to the vehicle which wins in the most categories accessible to that class of car? HP? Torque? Lap Time? Strip Time? 0-60? 60-0? Curb Weight? Turning Radius? etc. etc. I mean if a car gets more X's than the other... its a pretty unanimous decision right?

Gen Coupe has better brakes or not? Not judging. Side note: it's brake not breaks. Last edited by YamahaR6; 11-04-2009 at 03:07 PM. |

the 3.8 track model has better breaks and better track suspension. so yes, if the track was more geared for that type of car it would have a good chance of beating the 370. be honest. dont you wish the 370 came with brembos over "nissan" breaks. lol |

as for lewis hamilton. he was using akebono according to what YamahaR6 said. he had to retire from the race for the left right rear brake problem. to be fare though it was the first mechanical failure he ever had that led to a retirement of the race. |
