Good indicator of top end acceleration. Simply proves that the M6 is in the same league as the 2012 GTR in a straight line.
No. It's a good indication of gearing. Most cars are geared to be more performance oriented at lower speeds.

The GTR is only faster because of launch control. Take that away and it's a driver's race. Who knows, maybe the GTR in that video heat soaked the same way Car and Driver's example did.
No. As I've pointed out repeatedly a GTR is faster even without LC. I have consistently hit mid 3s to 60 and mid 7s to 100 with no launch. An M6 can't hit those even with LC.
