Here are the the results from the mythical "Ring". 7:37 Pretty impressive for a 3600 lbm car in the rain. The Z07 will be much faster. I am interested to see if the next generation BOSS equivalent will have an answer for the Z28. I expect the large gap between the Boss and the 1LE will be shrunk with the 2015 weight loss and IRS upgrade. Stay in school, I'm sure the mark up will keep these well beyond the day-laborer tax brackets.

Kid of interested to see what the coming GT350 is really going to turn out like. The original is still my favorite Mustang.

If it does then a lot of kids out there are going to be asking their daddy's for a raise in their allowance.

That's impressive. Curious why they're basically identical here, but the GT-R is almost 20 seconds faster at the Ring.

Z/28 7:37

The ring has some long straights where the GTR will excell. Also Nissan has no corporate integrity.

And GM does? Fuck them with a 2x4 for their (and the UAW's) stupidity and greed, leaching off the back of the taxpayer and fucking over bond holders. But they are very well engineered. I don't get to pick the facts about some of their cars.

If you have something resembling proof, rather than hateraid about the GT-Rs Ring time being a fraud, please share. Otherwise it's a pretty substantive gap.

Z/28 did that ring time on a wet-ish track so there is time left on the table.
