Evo: Gtr Vs Z06 Vs R8 Vs Gt3

[ausgtr]

Another video to enjoy.

http://www.evo.co.uk/videos/planetevovideo...orsche_gt3.html

Apparently, in the next issue of EVO magazine (out on march 5th) they test the GT-R against the Z06 on the drag strip, the GT-R against the GT3 on the track (video clip) and the GT-R against the R8 on the road.

Can't wait to grab that Mag!

looked like a second faster even with the little screw up at the one of the corners. so I'd say 1.5-2 seconds quicker overall.

Looks like the 'yanks' managed to import two JDM spec RHD GTR's through Jspecconnect.com. They say the paid $4k over sticker and sold one to some 'yank' in new york for $120k or so. The other is going to have a cameo in f2f4 and is sitting in costa mesa, cali.

Hopefully they can take it to the tracks so the GTR can "Bless" the nonbelievers.

You folks are too bias. The Z06 was faster.

The Z06 did 0-100 in 8.5 seconds and the GTR did it in 8.9.

The GTR did better 0-100-0, but they had a better reaction time in the GTR (time between WOT and hitting brake pedal).

GT-R: 0-100 = 8.9, 100-0 = 4.3, accel to brake reaction time = 0.6

Z06: 0-100 = 8.5, 100-0 = 4.5, accel to brake reaction time = 1.0

Thus, if you subtract the difference in reaction times, the Z06 was not only faster 0-100, but it's faster 0-100-0 also!

The Z06's lead would've been even larger had they kept going (the article mentioned that the Z06 was accelerating harder past 100mph....this also hurt its braking time).

The Z06 is even more impressive because it has inferior tires and hit the market a full THREE years before the GTR.
