Lap times for the lazy:
SRT Viper - 01:23.9
Corvette Stingray - 01:24.6
Nissan GT-R - 01:25.2
Porsche 911 Carrera S - 01:25.6
Porsche Cayman S - 01:27.0
Shelby GT500 - 01:27.3
BMW M3 Coupe - 01:29.0
Very impressive considering this is only the base model at this point.

You obviously don't spend much time on other site, which in my few months even the lowest member have an appreciation of all cars. People still talk a ton of **** on american cars, while it's mostly the uneducated masses of youtube and social media, it still happens.

I've been on lots of sites over the past decade. Anybody that isn't a moron knows that America has produced quite a few good overall performers ever since the Viper GTS/C5 days.

Right on the money. Have any of you read the comments on pictures posted by Car Memes on Facebook? It will literally make your head explode. "...until you have to turn", "ZOMG hp/liter", followed by the inevitable Supra or Skyline circle jerk. You know it's a big deal when Modular and LS guys have each others backs to fend off the people touting motors with names derived from a spoonful of alphabet soup.

if you had wanted the most accurate test possible you cant give an "edge" to any car and testing conditions need to stay constant. FI motors are way more susceptible to heat, and that GTR being run in the heat of the day was clearly killing power, same thing with the M3 and GT500.

ahh I thought this one had already went tt
that and the blistering summer heat I would absolutely assume as well. I don't see how it wouldn't NOT negatively effect a fi car. obviously cooler temps are ideal for any motor, but adding the intercooler to help keep intake temps down may not work as good as it *should* when its 100*+ outside and maybe even humidity to match.
I could be very well dead *** wrong, but its a logical thought in my mind that say 65* is able to cool better for heat transfer for intercoolers than say 100*. Yes?

I didn't see anywhere in the vid where there was a 35* change. That would be a very large swing in a average day. Even so a fi engine will be affect by 1/2 as much as a n/a engine.
They don't call turbo's / blowers altitude compensators for nothing.
