With GT-R it never made sense to me that a car that is 500lbs heavier and having about same HP output can break or accelerate better. Let's just wait for some real life track action footage.

The launch control run is messed up... LC gets that car from 0-60 in 3.5 seconds... i'm supposed to belive that a stock Z06 can do that? What do the "Gulf Specs" give it drag slicks or something?

^^^ Thanks for that... I honestly had no idea they could pull that kind of acceleration on stock tires. I had heard they were ridiculous with drag slicks but i hadn't seen a time like that on the stock equipment. Impressive!
