No you're definitely correct. The GT-R has a wonderful advantage off the line with it's all-wheel drive... but by the end of just a quarter mile you will notice that although the ET is similar, the Z06 is up nearly 10MPH on the GT-R already, which means it is in the process of pulling away.
DON'T GET ME WRONG -- I love the GT-R, it's a great car -- but to become the "super car" everyone wants it to be, it needs to go on a serious diet... 3800 lbs!? COME ON.... it's one of the heaviest sports cars ever produced. Come on Nissan - release a skinny GT-R so it can be the undisputed king of the road.
