GTR got owned. Shame on Nissan for making a fat pig of a car. That car needs to go on a serious diet.

| When the hell did a rolling start for a drag become acceptable? Civics started this **** because they have nothing under 40mph. Watching a Z06 and a GT-R do it is painful. What a couple of losers. Standing start if you're serious about dragging. The launch is often where cars win or loose the drag if they are similar. This is ridiculous. |
Seems people are bitter that the GT-R got owned by the Z06 in this drag video. As an FYI, the Z06 still beats the GT-R when raced from a dig. Where the GT-R really shines is on the twisty tracks, where it just owns the Z06. Frankly, it's an amazing car -- but could be ten times more amazing if they put that fat arse on a diet. Imagine if it was 500 less... sounds tasty right?

| GM claims 0-60 for the Z06 at 3.7 seconds. The GTR runs it in 3.5 seconds. Id say close maybe, but definately not a cigar for the Z06. |
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.
