The gtr is a great car no doubt . Ive had some awesome laps round the ring in a full
ring prepped gtr running trick dampers etc .

Nissan however have a notorious reputation re cars used for things like this and press cars here in europe . No other independent source was ever able to post similar times to any quoted gtr variant times .

Also remember cup style track tyres are worth 10 to 12 seconds at the ring , this has been proven several times by numerous euro mags . ( a cup type tyre is worth around 2 secs on a short uk track , the nordschleife runs over 20 km ) . The CGT runs terrible mixed compound 9 year old design/compound tyres ( the only part of the car Mr Rohrl didnt like btw ) .

Do the math re a CGT on decent rubber
( i mean more re other supercars not really the gtr )

Also fyi the carrera gt was tested at the ring on standard tyres with standard geo , same as the cars you could by .

BBturbo, I'm curious to know why you would never own a GTR. I consider you to be a real enthusiast as you have/driven/had some amazing cars. And also, have you ever driven the GTR? Again, it's just out of curiosity.

Those tires in the pics look like slicks. Almost like Hoosiers.

I would like to see the MP times when they run.

FWIW Porsche is just as guilty of using "ringers" as is Nissan. All manufacturers do it. There are so many variables that can add or subtract several seconds from a 20.6 km course that meaningful interpretation of a couple seconds is simply impossible and within the margin of error.

I've owned some of the models in that top 200 list, and I'd be happy to own just about any of them. IMO seeing an automaker and its customers get bent out of shape because a "lesser" vehicle outperforms their flagship of yesteryear provides a good laugh at the expense of the petty whiners. IMO this thread has also outlived it's useful life.
