Track setup is clearly important. YouTube confirms this in the GT-R vs 370Z battle with the gtr only besting the z by a second or two on a short curvy course. The cts-v has 0.9g road holding while the Z is 0.98. Now the Nurburgring is the mother of all tracks as it incorporated almost every track element. How straight line acceleration competes with road holding isn't so clear. You can also compare braking as well where the Z also prevails. In the end, the Zs superior handling may mean a lot more than the caddy's hp.

Someone get a Z on the nurburgring already!
