Great post DJ. I'm surprized the GT2 won, especially after watching the Motor Trend drag race.

The ZR1 has a stronger motor (judging from the trap speeds), but traction was the deciding factor.

that´s a claim GM time.
the another is a verified time by sportauto.
let´s wait for a supertest.
the claim nissan time is 7.27 or something, and we know that story

If the driver of the ZR1 wouldn't have botched his launch so badly in the first race, he might've won it. I'm actually surprised the races were as close as they were.
