i wish the faggots at nissan wouldn’t have dropped the ball so bad. “we think this is the perfect platform and the perfect setup so we made it very difficult to tune or modify” the old ones were so much better all around. i’d love to see what a zr1 maxed out on the stock motor and an r34 maxed out on the stock motor would do. i’d still take the gt2 over them all. ---

I’ll take a 560-4 over the GT2 [ame=“[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QL\_M20A2lnM](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QL_M20A2lnM)”]YouTube - Top Gear : Lamborghini Gallardo LP-560-4 Vs Porsche 911 GT2[/ame] But you still have to give Chevy credit for what they’ve done w/ the ZR1. It seems like it got the worst launch of all, not surprising vs. AWD (GTR), F1-trans & launch control (599), and traditional stick w/ launch control (GT2). The ZR1 all the launching is left up to the driver, and with a Motor Trend hack behind the wheel it got out to a bad start. Didn’t matter on the big end though. Oh, and I could not disagree more with the statement “Put 4 cars of this caliper together, and only **_one_** word comes to mind: DRAG RACE!!” First off, I’m pretty sure drag race is two words, but if I had to think of two words for the group of cars it’d be Road Course, and if I had to pick one I guess it’d be (no surprise) Nordschleife. -TJ ---

you can take a gt2 which only costs 100k, put two gt30r turbo’s on it and go 8’s on the stock motor. if we’re talking drag race gimmie the gt2. although if you want a go around a track, take that smoke and sliding and multiply it by 100 with those turbos. i think awd is an option though. ---

[list=a]- MSRP on the GT2 is ~$190k before options. You can easily option one past $225k.

> [@Samuel Adams Utopia](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/samuel-adams-utopia/38562/17): > > I’m totally blown away, I never expected that. :rolleyes: True, but the truth is if you gave people a ZR1 and said pick a handful of new cars for it to drag race against. One will probably be a Ferrari, one a Porsche, and the GTR makes pretty good sense too. Price ranges and horsepower between the 4 is off, but its entertaining to watch. I’d still rather see them on a road course, just to show the ZR1 isn’t a one sided machine and can turn also. ---
