Now officially faster than the Viper ACR. They upped the power close to 550hp and is now lighter as well.

So was this one wearing hand cut racing slicks like the others?

it is still a very nice automatic car. But that means it sucks. Period.
ugly and fast with no clutch pedal... **** a lot of cars fit in that.
Let me know when they make it with a proper manual shift.

It's an impressive time for what it's worth. I don't view Nurburgring as that great of a benchmark by itself, but that's me. To get a good representation of a car's ability, I prefer to see it tested on several tracks with different attributes and preferably by an independent driver. I will wait for C&D to test it at VIR and Motortrend/Road&Track to test it around Willow Springs as well.

lets see if dodge ever takes a ACR back out there, they had no practice andnot enough time last time out and the new ACR has different gear ratios that should make a huge difference.

Perhaps you're talking circle track stuff? If so, I'll bow out since turning is over rated.
I can appreciate the GTR for what it is and I'm sure it's a blast to drive. I'm just not a fan of the styling.

What racing class are you referring to specifically? Tell Jeggy that autos win races. Maybe tell Billy Glidden that. What "fastest cars in the world" happen to be autos? Just curious.
