Either way I'd take a GT-R over the Viper anyday regardless. I believe the ACR did a 1:29 or something with steve millen behind the wheel before so its not nesscessarilly alot faster. I do believe the ACR is a nice car but its not gonna rock a modded GT-R imo.
Hey, you said "slightly" modded. I'd say ~600hp at crank is significant (even if we assume the thing really has 520-530 crank stock). I'm not saying the GTR is not a great car. I just don't see it "walking away" from an ACR based on its specs and everything I've read. I have driven neither. Don't know anything about Willow springs, so can't comment on the time. I guess the choice would also depend on intended use. Sounds like the ACR is a pretty adjustable car (suspension and aero) out of the box for the track.
