If you were Nissan and you wanted to close the performance gap between the GT-R and cars like the ACR, ZR-1, 911 gt2, etc, what would be the easiest way?? Not saying the times aren't legit, but the advantage on paper can be just as easily lost in the real world when its opponents have equal traction.
