The reason it was compared to the 991 turbo was because it beat the 911 and z06 around soem tracks, so track wise it is faster than the 911 turbo. Most lambos and ferraris are 11 second cars aswell, so why arent the comparable?

Still noone answered my question what does chrissy mean?

None of these cars were built to be 1/4 queens, thats what you dont understand, the are designed to be fast around tracks, are they fast in straight lines yes, does anyone care, nope. Of course people want the 0-60 and 1/4mile time but the big deal is how fast can it do a lap.

I think its the other way around; everybody is filming themselves doing roll on the highway to know which car is the fastest on the streets. Not a lot of plp is doing hotlapping with their 70K$ car in the neighbourhood

Right roll races is how most street racing is done i never said it wasnt. The people who afford these cars most that i know anyway do there racing on closed courses, sure you get old guys on the street with there insanely fast cars but if you go to a closed course like auto x or something you will see many many cars like these. Hell i have taken my legacy to quite a few and beat out some cars that make way more power than me, i only put down 267awhp and 294awtrq and i have taken cars around a track that have put just over 400rwhp down and i have darn close to stock suspension.

Do you know what the 911 Turbo runs in the 1/4? Or the Ferrari F430? Or the Lamborghini Gallardo? The GT-R is right on par, more-so than you give it credit for.

if you think a 115mph car is as fast as a 120-130mph, its your opinion.

So basically it's slow because it's not quite as fast as the cars in it's class from a 60mph roll? Basically just disregard that it's right with or faster than nearly all of them around almost any road-course, and it's potential from a dig? I swear people on this site go from "roll racing is gay," to "roll racing is all that matters," SO much.

I dont care about the roll racing thing, I think 115mph is slow compared to 127mph. Shows how hard the car accelerate.

From a roll... and you're using a great trapspeed from a Z06, and one of the worst trap speeds for the GT-R. I've seen 120mph trapspeed tests for the GT-R.

We can gripe about which car is faster all day but in the end we wouldn't kick any one of them out of the sack

^I'm with you^ , the car on the ring was a 550+hp car with race tire and on a diet too(its a fact). Anyway, Irune, we'll never get along, we just dont have the same opinion and taste; you sold your mustang to get an S2000, thats weird!!

sry OP for the thread hijack

First race was from 40, he jumped on the second beap and pulled about half a car and it stayed that way all the way till 100 when he let out. Second race was from 40 also, jumped at the same time i got a lead of about half a car, stayed the same till about 100 and i pulled till about 130 and let off leading by about a car length. I didn't realize the HR was that quick with a tune. I've beat regular 350s before but damn. The only reason i posted this was because it's his first loss because he he had spray and usually wins but he pulled the kit off last night. Oh by the way, i know i'm a below average driver lol.
at 40, what gear were you in? I've done 40 rolls in 2nd AND 1st. There's a big difference too. The difference is at least a car length if not two and thats at take off!
