Turbo 370z Supercar?

Vinny

Oh geez, here we go again. You can throw all this useless information to try to hide the fact that your previous statement is incorrect, but it doesn't change the fact.

I will repeat myself AGAIN. "Supercar" is just a classification. My argument was NOT that it would be considered a supercar, but that it COULD beat supercars on a track.

Is that simple enough for you? Do I need to break it down even more?

Take a stock 3300lbs lamborghini Countach with 455bhp which obviously fits in your little "supercar" category, and put it on a track against a Z that has 300k invested in it.

Take a long moment and evaluate the outcome. And for god's sake be rational.

If you are unwilling to admit that a built Z can beat "supercars" of any kind around a track, then you are simple minded and this conversation is a complete waste of time.

Ah, the Straw man. Always a classic.

It really comes down to driver skill. Even in my lightly modded Z on some days I'm faster than some GT3s and Ferraris in my run group. Also, I get similar lap times to when I was in my 650hp supercharged C6. Performance of the cars isn't different enough to overcome the different levels of driver skills.

You asked which supercar a built Z would beat around a track, did you not? You're making this discussion more complicated than it needs to be. Not all "supercars" are godly. There is no possible way that a built Z cannot compete (and defeat) a single supercar out there on a track.
I don't know how much more simply i can put it.

Please show me where I said that.


I've owned a car that would lap most supercars that came off a cheap platform. I'm pretty sure I know it can be done

Outdated supercars are not considered supercars anymore? Ah, well my apologies, I wasn't aware.
And BTW Econ, ROFL

Brb beating nsx's in my lightly modded z and bragging about "beating supercars"

Vinny

Laugh all you want, you made that argument, not me. "Which supercar will you beat with 100k in your Z?" Like I said, Supercars is just a classification, doesn't mean they're untouchable.

Quick question, Red: With 300k in a Z, do you think there is a production supercar in the last 3 years that could be beaten?

Sure, provided the money is spent right. And of course, depending on what you consider is a supercar.

Red__Zed

I made no such claim. I asked a question. They are different.

Perhaps you could have answered that question with "old, outdated ones." I would generally agree with that. You could potentially even say borderline supercars... I would agree with that as well. But fact is, you'd probably be hard pressed to even beat stuff like the gtr.

Vinny

Really? "Borderline Supercars"? I wasn't aware that there were sub-categories withing "supercars". So it goes like "borderline supercar" "almost supercar" "could be supercar on some days" "mediocre supercar" "decent supercar" "bugatti veyron"? I guess that's pretty much how it breaks down?
So you can't agree to say that 300k into a Z could beat supercars around a track, but you CAN agree that 300k into a Z could beat "borderline Supercars" around a track, correct?
And you firmly that 300k investment into a Z couldn't beat a Gtr?
