Default Is there any ZO6 vs GTR videos out there?

Surprised I have not came across one yet seeing that these two cars seem to have the most disputed rivalry I have seen since F-Bodys and Stangs...even though we all know which is faster.

Hint: Chevrolet produces it.

Good point! With similar price tags and hp I am surprised there are not any videos out there. Of course with the GTR a boost controller will go a long ways. But thats why Chevrolet has blessed us with the ZR1. I think that car should CRUSH the lap record at the RING.

There is something weird going on with those gtr's. The last two magazines i read had some problems with those cars. Two magazines said they had cars that were alot slower in recent tests, and one said that the clutch was making some nasty sounds. They were more on par with what their power to weight ratio is mid 12's in the 1/4.

Same price tags...huge price gouging on the GTR...check out bay one going for pre-sale for 90 grand...

The vettes have done the ring from dead stops and the gtr with flying and everyone still thinks its so much faster??? Physics doesnt lie people...

Last time I knew the ZR1 did it in 7:40 but it was damp track.
