    Default I got an Idea ZR1 vs GTR

    Bets should be placed when the actually production models are compared.

    Pick the top 3 Review Companies ie: (Car and Driver, Top Gear and motor trend)

    Place actual $$$ bets on the car that will be the "King of the Ring" < LOL @ that.

    If judgments conflict pick the best of three.

    You guys come up with the rest.


    Make it interesting!


    don't place bets too high, don't want no body gettin' shot out herre.


    ...or postpone until V-SPEC is released?

    UPDATE 5-13-2008

    (2) $50 Bets and several $5 Bets Confirmed

    ZR1 is going to won dhaaa. Becuase producers of the Zr1 already knew what the GTR can do, so they did everything to make it better than the GTR.

    What are the tests were betting on? The normal mag. test or the fastest around the Nurbering? I think the ZR1 is over built for a street car. Over all the skyline will be the better car but the ZR1 is moreless a racecar. Ill put 5 on the skyline overall.

    There you go, that's exactly what needs to be discussed right now.


    Ass factor can only be determined by a "real life" experience

    Of course. Its lighter, better brakes and more power just to name a few. I think over all the GTR will prevail

    IDK about that. The Corvettes, even though RWD they have been able to hook pretty damn good. Their saying mid 10's for the ZR1. We'll see.

    All the GTR has going for it is its performance, the interior is made of legos and the exterior is nothing special (IMO)

    The engineer that stamps all my drawings was telling me that his brother just got a C6 ZO6. He's 62 and is dating a 26yr old stripper. I say, good for him, lol

    ehh, I dunno. I think the leg room in the front seat will be about the same. The GTR def. has more rear leg room though...

    So you're not waiting on the vspec? That means you're comparing Chevy's top production car to Nissan's second tier. I call shenanigans.

    make the bet V-spec vs. Zr1 and you got yourself a deal. or we can do z06 vs. GTR and we already know those stats.
