damn. motor trend needs better drivers.
pretty cool race shoulda went with the 11 gt500 though
^Atleast I didn't have to say it. Plus, there are huge price gaps. Cool video though
+1 The boss is a badass car but compared to a new GTR, Z06 or 458 Italia its like a stock 99-04 GT to a modified Terminator.
Just saw that yesterday in another thread. A great video. And a super bunch of car/exotics for sure. 
cool video, im just glad the boss wasnt last lol
I wonder if they applied there "No power shifting" rule when performing this drag race. Hopefully they put there better drivers in the seats of the car's that need more than a right foot and a pulse to drive.
I cant and have never been able to figure out why GTR's are so quick but their bad ass.
As much as a lot of us don't want to admit, the old fashioned manual tranny will continue to handicap high HP cars. Computers have now made them obsolete. The American guys need to focus less on HP and more in this dept to remain competitive in the future.
^ my thoughts exactly
Badass vid
That sucked.
Our car makers need to start cutting weight on these boats too. All the horsepower and big brakes in the world won't make a 4200lb ZL1 or a 4000lb GT500 Compare with some of the supercars in their same price range. That's why I love Corvettes so much, it seems they get lighter / more powerful / handle better with each generation when all the other domestics put on pounds.

530 hp, lots of torque, no turbo lag, awd, aggressively geared for acceleration, super efficient tranny...
Yes. On prepped race tracks with close to or negative DA. This is an unprepped airstrip. These results are actually very real world, what we would see on the street.
