Y'know, you never responded the last time I asked, but is the GT-R tested in the current Car & Driver also a ringer? It ran the quarter mile at 111 mph, which computes to around 430 HP, and was definitely a sick puppy, powerwise. Yet it lapped a race track a bit quicker than a Z06.
Is this down-on-power car yet another retarded Nissan ploy, and does the fact that it still beat the Vette mean it's just another retarded Nissan ploy, this time in terms of suspension and tires?

Either way even if it did have 693HP and some slight mods, you can give Nissan credit for making a capable car.. but don't BS me in trying to tell me that these cars are stock,non-altered vehicles. |
Gee, it says 693 HP right there, so it must be true.
Nissan says it was a stocker, and that they were disappointed in the initial 7:38 numbers with another stocker, so they came back.
In regard to power, how do you account for the fact that nearly all of the tested cars tend to get outrun from a roll by Porsche Turbos and Z06s, starting with that initial test we saw by Edmunds? Yet anytime we see a track comparison, the GT-R tends to rule.
Maybe you can answer this time?
Credibility time, guy.
