Is the r35 really that much superior than the gt2 on the track? Gt2 has more hp, torque, lighter, suspension tuned for the track, I just don't get it. I dont buy this.

I would love to see this race, held at the ring, between one of Porsche's senior test drivers versus one of Nissan drivers that tested the GTR there.

It's hard for me to trust something like this because, even if the Japanese driver has no anti-German bias, he may still be unfamiliar with the GT2 relative to the NSX and GTR.

True..
In UK EVO magzine test GT2 faster than GT-R on their track by 0.2 secs.

the GTR seems so easy to drive, brake-shift-turn-throttle.
GT2, brake-clutch in-tap throttle-shift-release clutch-turn-throttle.
im sure the auto-manual trans has a lot to do with it.
plus the GTR has tons more grip, they really nailed the suspension setup on the pig. look at the corner speeds.
R&T had a similar result in a recent test between the GTR, viper ACR, and GT2.
disappointed with porsche's GT2 needs more suspension/balance development, and the PDK.

What I am sick about B.Motoring is hearing about their 1000 years old NSX-R !$#@#$ or whatever it is. Seems like they always has to plugin a pic, a vid or say the word in 90% of their vids... No doubt it's a great car, but godsake, we all know...

Best Motoring (the abbreviation BM seems appropriate) is notorious for being heavily biased. No matter what the race, the Japanese cars always win and German or American cars are far behind. I think the last one I saw had an S2000, 350Z, and NSX all beating an M3 and a Z06.

maybe their feet can't reach the pedals on the american and german cars.
