looks like the torque management was holding the zr1 back a bit on the dyno

No doubt. Just turning that off with a handheld programmer would have made the numbers skyrocket.

The ZR1 is out of the GTR's class. The GTR was meant to compete in the same category as the ZO6, Viper SRT-10, 911 Turbo, etc.

No big shocker here.

638hp in 3300lbs. is going to have alot more ummph than some GTR with 473hp, at 3800lbs., that has to power 4 wheels.

The GTR is a playstation on wheels. The ZR1 is a drivers car with a proper manual gearbox, standard FR layout.
