You're right. GTR probably wouldn't even see the taillights of the ZR1

I want to see:

GT2
Viper ACR
ZR1
Spec-V
Scuderia
Superleggerra

That would be the best ever if someone could pull that off.

lol it my name on all of the forums, I been like that for 4 years. I personally like the 997 turbo better. I am just not a fan of the z06 or the zr1. the motor is amazing but just like anything with 7.0L it not hard to make 500 to 650hp. But the weight of the Z06 is impressive for an V8. But the styling is not for me, personally I think it looks like the Viper and the 360 had sex and that was the baby. Also the cocky vette owners shy me way form the vettes thing they can beat everything. But that just my experience.

+1

The question now becomes, which magazine or car reviewers could best pull this off, and do it VERY objectively. Then we should all write them a proffesional letter/emails asking them to promote the challenge. And if that doesn't work, we beg, contact the manufacturer's press fleets, offer private cars, or just throw money at them. Whatever works 'cause this would be the ultimate test...

Here is a look at the last GTR Skyline made. I talked to the owner today at the C&C. I wanted to race, but he never took me up on my offer. No way this car will keep up with mine.
