Porsche claims that it had been suspicious of the Nissan's lap times, so it acquired a U.S.-spec GT-R for testing back-to-back with its own 911 Turbo and GT2. The result? The mighty Godzilla was toppled by the Teutonic German duo, with the GT-R posting times a good 25-seconds slower than Nissan's claim.

you have a base model car(gt-r) against top of the line vette (zr-1)......the gtr is no way in the same class as the zr-1....come on even the z06 beats up on the gt-r so why even compare the the zr-1 to it???.....just my 2cents

+1 the ZO6 is faster in a straight line than the GTR.... the ZR1 should not be compared against the GTR. I read a recent Road & Track article where the ZR1 was neck and neck with the Ferrari 599 GTB (which has the 612hp Enzo motor in it). The ZR1 is a supercar in every sense of the word.
