i'll take the GTR
I would as well. But it is good to see 'murica finally able to make a 3800lb car handle. Nissan was just able to do it with all the creature comforts (albeit slightly slower on the track).

It's a valid point. Put race spec tires on the gtr and it'll produce a better lap time than the z28.

And still cost way way more.

That's the whole point. The car, as it comes, is faster on the track than cars that cost more, that's the only point.

Lord almighty, give me strength!

That's great.

The Z/28 will still be faster on the track, which you will never visit in your GT-R, so it doesn't really matter.

Corolla vs pagani. Did you see this one corrola won! You just can't justify the extra cost of the pagani. When comparing the price to performance ratio the corolla stomps it. Crazy... who would've thought!

If the Corrolla came from the factory faster around a track than the Pagani, it would be retarded to buy a Pagani to go to the track in for ~80x's the price.

Since this whole discussion is about being fast around the track.

Nothing else. At all. Period.

I think we've beat this to death. If you want to compare price, nothing is in the Z/28s league except for GMs very own Corvette. if you want to pit it against more expensive cars then make them even regardless of price.

The Z/28 is great for those who want a track car, but don't want to build one. Other than that, it's pretty useless.

I suggest you track your Z then. Arriving at the track for the first time in a GT-R isn't a very wise decision.
