I agree the z06 is a far superior car when it comes to street racing. The GTR doesnt get hurt as much as you would think by its AWD since its 98%RWD and only 2%FWD until the tires start to spin which is why it has alot less drivetrain loss then most AWD cars. I also agree that the z06 is a better all around car, and far better looking IMO. If you have ever driven a new z06 it doesnt feel like any other lsx car including the earlier z06s. Its truely a beautiful thing.

cbr600 is being reasonable. Like I said, the GTR is a nice car, but for those that thought even for a second that it can run with a Z06 in a straight line are on some serious hasheesh. You got a 500 hp car at 3800 lbs that traps at 120 in the 1/4 (on a good day) vs. a 500 hp car at 3100 lbs that traps at 125 (on an average to good day).
The spec-V should be a better competitor to the Z06 in a straight line, but I still doubt it will be as quick.

No i called you a liberal because you just believe what you want to instead of taking in the facts. I just posted a link to a dyno that said 470whp and there are oh so many more if you search. Your a hypocrite thats all, BTW most cars run on a dyno reguardless of make or model are run in 3rd gear.

i bet your new camaro will be a pig as well. they hype each car up every year with more power. were gonna give xxx power instead of xxx power but were also gonna add a couple hundred pounds to it so all in all its just as fast as the previous models.

Except the vette, it gets a little lighter or stays the same and it went from 350hp-ls1
405hp-z06
505hp-ls7
638hp-zr1 all were 3100-3300lbs lol
Yeah the new camaro will be atleast 3800lbs when all is said and done

But, it is definitely heavier than a 4th gen coupe (around 3400lbs).

The only cars that are run in third are cars that third is 1:1. Most manuals that means fourth, most autos that means third. Its dependant on the car and which gear is 1:1. The rest of your post I'm going to ignore because I doubt you know me well enough to determine if I'm a hypocrite or anything else.

Your right i dont, but you are doin exactly what liberals do. They believe what they want to reguardless of fact or proof. I gave you a link to prove what i said and give fact to back my statement and trust me there are many more jsut use google. All you did is say there is no way it makes that much power with nothing to back it just proving my statement "that you are acting like something you dislike", to be true. Which is basically the definition of hypocrite.

I agree, dynos do not tell all, or even half the story in some cases. I was never trying to prove the GTR to be a superior car than the z06, mainly cause i dont believe it is. I was just saying the 480crank hp is a bit underrated, which is why it does so well on closed courses against lighter cars with similar power, better than a 3800lbs car with 480crank hp should do because its really a 3800lbs car with 530ish crank hp and a pretty advanced drivetrain.
As far as the car in the real world, its AWD which makes real world driving a little easier in most situations.
