prpsebuilt is an unknown quantity at this point
So i drove my Z to a local Nissan dealer and all these cocky salesmen start bashing the z. I said get it out and lemme shut all of you the F up !! They just continued their b-**** until the GM came out and fired three of them right on the spot. She apologized to me and praised the Z. She said because of the salesmen antics she would sell me any car at invoice (prolly not the GTR).Nice lady and a true beauty to boot. BTW I was there with my sister who wanted to look at a Pathfinder. Well she her path alright, straight over to Ford where I convinced her to buy a convertible Mustang GT

seriously crush, that's just a sad excuse right there. You sound like an M3 driver when they lose a drag race: "It's aight yo, we'll kill 'em in the twisties."


As for the Z06,
YEAH, BABY!!!!

monaroCountry will become famous soon enough
This video makes you wonder how the Nurburgring 7:29 spec GTR was even able to keep up with the 638hp Corvette ZR1 when the production spec GTR cant even get close to the Corvette ZO6 for both standing and rolling starts.

I will be racing my z this weekend at Summit Point raceway. I hear some GTR's will be there. If so I will record the event. I am confident that I will have a nice rice lunch tomorrow and Sunday.

Crush, that was my bad.
I just posted what my initial thought was because I was laughing with myself about it.
My apologies, therefore I stand corrected; I just haven't done my homework on some people from this board enough to make stupid ***umptions.



And prpsebuilt, this that sh*t on film for sure.

exactly. go from dig and see what happens to the Z06. but as you said. we all know that the GT-R will not hang with a z06 or 911 TT from roll espeically going above 100mph

z06 owners avoid GT-Rs from dig
GT-R owners avoid Z06's and TTs from roll. (gotta love those tall gears in the Z)

I don't know if you watched the video, but they did go from a stop and the GTR still lost...
