Default RE: ZR1 vs GTR at the 'Ring

Hmmm,

in the time trial, I think the GTR would have made it closer or even beat him if it was a stick and not an automatic. Then again, the ZR1 might have done a little better had the driver not shifted so many times under his power band and redlined it most of the time. The vette has it on the straight away though and the GTR has the cornering.

Nice video, I would still go with the vette if I had to choose to own one though....

the GTR is automatic with a gear selet on the shifter for paddle shifting. I had alot more info but got that dumb error code and it deleted all my stuff.[:@]

In this day and age, there isnt that much of a dropoff in performance vehicles with an automatic compared to a manual. Sure, a manual on a road course is better, but to say that's the only reason it lost is ridiculous...

And there's no way that GT-R had less then 500hp to pull numbers like that....
