Most hp, lightest wt, best suspension and best looking. The outcome was never in doubt.
@Badger Milk 😂
The zr1 is a natural legend
@@LSDdreams808
Then Motortrend launches the World's Greatest Drag racing series 3 year's later where the GTR spanks the ZR1😂
Since when is plastic better looking?
One day at the track, and that Engine is absolute garbage; Not designed for the g forces is on a real track.
Best suspension? Wow
@@Ont785 lol an LS will run forever. It was the only one with magnetic ride suspension so yes the best suspension
Funny that everybody is saying the Porsche & GTR would spank the ZR1 on the track yet all of these cars were tested at Mazda Laguna Seca Raceway & the ZR1 at one point & time held the production car lap time before being beat out by a hair by the SRT Viper GTS if I'm not mistaking . People are acting like the ZR1 is just shit around a corner smh do your homework people ...
Yuuuuppppppo listin to this guy
Viper ACR beat it by a hair on nurburgring and Laguna Seca
Yeah I seen randy lay that lap time down . It's funny cause the dodge representatives said randy was 'scared' of the viper before hand lol
Joshua Moy u do realize that the Viper ACR is a track enhanced viper whilst the ZR1 isnt?
Antonio Philip yes I do
I just don't understand why people hate on American cars. GTR fanboys always come up with excuses when they get their asses spanked by any car.
Why can't people just understand and accept that Corvette's are just better.
+robert Horsch yes you are right
+Full Throttle good car but you know Ferrari better car and better final speed
*****
What are you talking about a Ferrari cant keep up with a corvette because it is reversed engineered by GM engineers. GM allows Ferrari to lease their Magnetic Ride Control (MagneRide). Ferrari depends on GM to design and create the suspension for them so the car can turn, actually run and handle the power being provided. GM has been supplying Ferrari different variety of suspension for over 25 years.
+Top Gear is a Joke just for straight line
James Ravel
The vette would still pull its lighter and makes more power and only needs to once twice.
GTR GOT SHIT ON. ZR1 > these ricers.
I like how people are always so surprised when a Gtr loses. A gtr is a computer it has sophisticated driver aids and launch control and paddle shift that is capable of shifting in 1/100 of a second or something like that, so yes it will win in a 1/4 mile drag race because of all the aids, but in anything longer than a quarter mile or a rolling start, it will lose. The corvette is the fastest out of all these cars in a rolling start, the reason it's not great in a quarter mile is because it is a real man's car (basic traction control, manual gearbox, minimal driver aids)
I agree with everything except the term "real mans car". Its a real DRIVERS car, transmission shouldnt dictate how much of a man you really are :p That being said, this race was a 1/4 mile, so therefore the GTR lost in all scenarios hahahahahaha. The new GTRs, yes would beat these cars, however the new C7 8 speed z06 will beat this ZR1 and probably even the new 2015 GTR. I personally love autos, only because its starting to set even higher benchmarks than its manual predecessors (e.g. C6 ZR1 stock time 10.9 track, 11s on the street, C7 Z06 8 speed auto 10.9 on the street and track.. imagine what the c7 ZR1 could do).
Being a JDM fan, i wish nissan pushed more power from factory out of their GTR :(
there still very good in rolling starts ive seen many races with it starting on a 50 60 or greater rolls and still beats many cars especially with the crazy tuned out versions aka alpha omega or alpha12+
try these cars with same horsepower,then see which will win,and then you can think twice when you gonna talk about GTR! take a look at nurburgring lap times so you can understand more easy which car is better.
Hehe. You said aids
1/100th of a second haha is that a joke
I was checking some data logs from an older track rental done some time ago.
Stock ZR1 on Drag Radials pulled 2.1 0-60 and 10.7 0-145 mph. Wish the guy kept accelerating for a second longer. Thats got to be a fucking record...
Even in 2023 those are insane numbers
Okay man lets just have a Moment to realize that this is from 2008 .Holy fkn shit time flys
Haha... All the butthurt GTR fanboys.... That's right baby! All American muscle gets the girl and wins the race
Try racing in a circuit and not a drag race. Lmao shitty Corvette is almost forbidden to turn.
+Wildly Coyote Forbidden to turn? That ZR1 is a track monster, even the older Z06. I don't know what you are talking about.
***** When did I say the GTR was shit? All I said is the ZR1 and Z06 are track monsters. Im not saying they are the best track cars but they can definitely turn and beat a lot of highly priced supercars around Nürburgring. Learn to read and comprehend before you make yourself sound like a highly sensitive fanboy.
THIS WAS THE FIRST YEAR WITH THE R35 DUMBASS AND ALSO I WOUDNT WANT TO BE AN AMERICAN BECAUSE THERE ALL A BUNCH OF FAT DIRT SLOBS
Don't know if this guy is dumb or too proud of his country
Always Respect the Engineering,
For you Corvette Fanboys,
Okay... i'll give it to you this time, The 638 HP Corvette ZR1 won from the 480 HP GTR, amazing right! Didn't think it was possible.
But in the Engineering world,
It's a big achievement for the GTR to be just standing there among those cars, and being considered their equivalent.
I remember seeing this 8 yeas ago. It steal gives me goose bumps. I just find the editing much better.
I love how they hate on our American Cars, but just let the numbers speak for themselves! I love my American Muscle
Amen, brother!
I hate american muscle!😋👎
See you at the 1/2mi. ;)
Detroit brother
@@randomideas7799 don't talk you like a american car reviewer who reviews all cars INCLUDING AMERCIAN CARS
Can't help noticing most people are disappointed the GTR didn't win, lol. They're over-rated, and not that fast after all, as the stock figures show.
Fast 0-60 -- falls off hard after that.
+Adeum Deus "falls off hard after that"(lol) Get a grip ,you clown-act.
Gtr was designed for the track. Not the drag strip. That zr1 is a beast though I will admit.
How is a 1,740 KG with 480 HP sports coupe overrated. Yes in straight line performance a more heavy, less powered AWD car will lose to a more powerful RWD but being 158 HP down and 230 KG weight disadvantage, it is incredibly impressive especially how it handles in the corners. When you think the 2008 Nissan GTR Nurburgring lap at the time was 7:26.7 against the 2008 Corvette 2008 lap time of 7:26.4 on a 12.9 Mile track, i think you need to get your priorities straight.
This video is bullshit...they try to fool us Asian... Why don't they just arrange the GTR get the 3rd or 2nd place?????
Wow, Motort rend has come a long way from this video presentation
GTR nutthuggers say what you will, but this vid made a lot of folks step their game up. ZR1 is still a awesome car, and still stock for stock faster than a newer GTR.
.... Why are Americans, as an American, so focused by 1/4 mile drag races.... That GT2 and 599 would CRUSH that Vette on any track.... real drivers do in the corners. ...
Naw the zr1 actually crushed them on the track please look it up it did it with ease
GTR = last place. LMAO!!!
Why did they even bother racing it. They would have been better off racing a Ford Fiesta.
Derek Miller They put it on the race only to compare with others with more horsepower. Don't play stupid
Once again, the mighty ZR1 comes out on top, like always!
I don't think people realize why the GTR lost, it's the heaviest car here, it's computers and awd is helping it pull a faster 0-60 time which is why the GTR will always win a 1/4 mile. However, because the GTR lacks power and is so heavy, it loses beyond 1/4 mile.
that was the quarter mile noob. lol dont speak if u dont know wat ur talking about. american muscle always wins. 2013 Ford mustang super cobra jet runs 8 sec 1/4 mile stock
Traci W I didn't realize this was only a 1/4 miles race, it seems a little to long for it to be 1/4 miles. The problem here however is the GTR did 0-60 in 3.2 seconds in this race when it can do 2.8 no problem. Usually the GTR and Corvette a neck and neck on these 1/4 races. I have never seen a drag race between the two where the GTR falls that far behind a Corvette. The GTR should be exactly with the Porsche in this race.
Thats nice, Mustang Cobra Jet isn't street legal and no, American muscle does not always win. I am a muscle car fan but you have to know when something losses or is equally matched.
The GTR is only fast on the starting line ..
relax it is 5 year old video equation got changed totally with 2013 GTR and with 2015 GTR nothing comes close on stock
vestern22 Yet, other people are losing their shit.
when the ZR1 came out it was revolutionary a true flagship car since then of course technology and power will improve but regardless no car that will come out in the next ten years will make the ZR1 look slow it will always be legendary KING OF THE HILL BLUE DEVIL... thank you old friend
2015 Z06 will own it all, straight line and cornering.
U were correct
lol I did nail the prediction. Bought a Z06 in 2016. It's beast!
glennsmooth holy shit cool
It's not faster than the ZR1
LOLOLOL
glennsmooth but you regret saying that 3 years ago lol
Nissan gtr= overpriced go kart. Zr1 will make you shake in fear :)
its the cheapest car in all dumbass
Yes because eventually you will crash
teneyez but it’s the slowest car dumbass
@@teneyez Hahaha slow
U like the GT3 or the Lexus LFA ?
If GM can come up with such a TT setup that is as formidable as their SC'd LS9, it'd be priceless! You're right about the throttle response, although I think the torque should be able to compensate more than enough at lower RPMs.
its so funny reading all these pissed off gtr fans posts... if you add this and that.... well if you add to the corvette then what? what if you add the max on both? hmm? can a gtr v6 handle 4k hp? an American zr1 v8 can Oo just saying
This video is 8 years old btw
This video is 8 years old btw
Direct quote from corvetteblogger com
"Remember that 7:19.63 Corvette ZR1 time that was set by Mero in 2011? While they were in Germany for that test session, the Corvette team also ran the 2011 Corvette Z06 with the Z07 package which earned a lap time of 7:22.68. As the Stingray was faster than the 2011 Corvette Z06 with the Z07 package and Michelin’s Pilot Sport Cup tires at VIR, can we assume that the C7 Corvette Stingray will be faster on the Nordschleife? "
gtr got pooped on. zr1 the king
GTR is not a drag race car. they are designed for cornering
Not only is the GTR not a drag racer, it also had a lot less HP. They took the lowest end version. Should have used the "black" or "premium" models that have 530+ HP. Would have been a different story. And the cost is only about 20k more. Nothing to cry about.
As an 18 year old on minimum wage, 20k is alot to cry about.
Ceadus34
This video was uploaded in 2008. This means that the black edition and premium models didn't even exist when this video was made.
Nathan Clark Haha bro I feel you I'm trying to buy a base Vette on minimum wage at 20, so if you work hard by the time you're my age you can buy a nice base C6! Just make sure you're in college and still living with mommy and daddy like me :)
Nathan Clark
I hear ya... sorry, I also have problems making that much money. I plan to buy a used one for 50-60k. No way I could ever afford one off a lot at 110k. 20k is a lot of money, sorry to trivialize it. I meant, if you can afford a 100k car, then 20k isn't a big deal more... IF you can afford that. I can't... yet.
Zr1 on top
It is a 2008-2010GTR with 485hp. Also that is a Porsche GT2RS and a 599 which is over classed.
Point is this u said that it faster in a straight it not zr1
Why don't you compare a 1992GTR? 2014 GTR official 1/4mile is 11.0s at 125.8mph ZR1 is 11.2s at 134mph. GTR 0-60 2.7s ZR1 3.4s
Porsche 991 Turbo S is the fastest on straight, 0-60 2.6s 10.9s 1/4mile.
Dude please gtr it not their even 2014 still cant pass 200 corvette 205
corvette will always be the king. Pure driving with manual and 600 + torque. Really a drivers car not for paddlers.
Bharath Kumar the video is a sellout dude...
Bharath Kumar Prefer the 997 GT3 RS for it's balance..
This GTR has just 485hp
The GTR NISMO has 600hp
Bruno Soares Stock GTR had 530bhp crank its well known it never had only 480bhp, the cars nissan brought to tests were better than 530bhp IIRC one was tested at 580bhp.
The first time the GTR lapped the ring on a record run it managed 180mph down the straight (from nissan's own data), which would only be possible with over 600bhp, further evidence is that the ZR1 when tested which had 640bhp could not manage 180mph yet will walk away from a GTR easy from 100mph+, GTR is not strong top end big frontal area creates lots of drag.
A stock dealership bought 530bhp GTR was tested and it only did 160mph down that same straight.
Its easy to tune the GTR to 700bhp with basically uprated fuel pumps and exhaust.
They were also crazy protective of the car on the ring and did not want people to take pictures of the car as I would guess it had its interior stripped out.
Car was later crushed so no evidence of it exists, compare this the the ZR1 that smashed the GTR record was sold to a customer and was a true production road car.
If you remember back before they released there first lap record video, there was a fan spy video showing the GTR racing around and it was obvious that it had a full race exhaust because it was crazy loud, also another video from the drivers seat which sounded like a stripped out race car, nissan later lied that they had put the microphone in the engine bay haha.
Nissan were caught out in the past with a R33 GTR was over 30sec quicker than a stock R33 independently tested with the same test driver, this was due to them bringing a modified tuned R33 with carbon fibre panels and boosted output.
Big fan of the GTR's but getting tired of the lies.
this is the GTR R-35, it has just 485 hp, them we have black edition of 545 hp and them the GTR NISMO of 600 hp.
all the cars have class!! except the GTR ….vette looks amazing
GTR is king here
July 2014 road and track ,,, gtr gets beat around a track by a z28 camaro !!!! And the viper too but everybody knows a gtr can never beat the viper
stop tell lies GTR is one of the fastest car around the track
teneyez No its not.... ZR1 Is.. Learn you're facts kid.
myvetteisfasterthanyourgtr ! Viper is a V10 gtr is a weak v6
Really, I don't get the whole shit about GTR being a "super car" yeah, it's an impressive 6-banger.... but I consider super cars V10+ with at least 800 stock HP, yeah, shit you DON'T see on the road (because they cost at least 6 high figures).
This is my scale:
Normal cars v4-v6 automatics, nothing impressive
Stage 1 fast cars high end v4, v6-low v8 auto/manual, mustang, Camaro, etc
Stage 2 street/racing high end v6, v8 muscle for street manual, but often used on track. Mustang GT, low end Corvette, etc
Stage 3 Racing, 1% on streets, weekend drivers. v8-low v10, Mustang GT500+, high end Corvette, etc.
Super Cars: You have too much money, or you race high end. v10+ exotic, Bugatti, Lambo, Ferrari, etc.
GTR lands under Street/Racing... albeit, it's a damn fast street car... it's not a super car
Still remember when this episode aired.. and the background music they used was on point.
stock price of ZR1 in 2009: $105,000 | 0-60: 3.0-3.4, 638hp (certified)
stock price of GT-R in 2009: $76,000 | 0-60: 3.2-3.5, 480hp (certified) (reports of 500hp+ but not confirmed to be certified)
yeah....
Its called all-wheel vs rear wheel drive buddy
Nathan Smith not inferior to the Mercedes McLaren
+Branden Lucero LOL ..too many Dead brains on the tube
hey not all Corvettes are muscles that are exotic sometimes like the ZR1.
lmfao that gtr price is complete bull just look it up from a dealership 50 miles away it's over 100 grand my friend. but who cares when the viper acr and corvette already beat the gtrs lap times at the great nurburging.
This was back in 2008. All these cars have changed quite a bit since then. Today, this race would be quite different as I'm sure the ZR1 and 599 would be in a fight for 3rd just like the GTR would be fighting the GT2 for 1st. A few years makes all the difference.
thatabu Very true, Ferrari never disappoints and has made yet another amazing car. I'd personally love to see a comparison with the McLaren P1, that's another amazing car that none of us could ever afford. We can still drool over them though.
the 599 still beats the gtr.......
not really. the zr1 pulls on the gtr due to hp. yeah gtr is the 1/4 mile king but the zr1 starts to reel it in at the end if the race fast longer than a 1/4 zr1 would dust it.
glad chevy made a car like the ZR1. Wonder if it will become like the F40 one day - since I don't think chevy will ever make another vette with this kind of power.
They did here in 2018 it’s called the zr1
LOL.... gotta love you tube..... C6 ZR1 is starting to get back some value though.... as it still blasts 98% of everything out there for 2018.
1234zcrom
Lol, the new ZR1 has 755 hp.
Haha you were so wrong. Now the ZR1 makes 755 horsepower
Oh you have got to love how they managed to get that Cylinder-Deactivation working properly finally. They've been going at it for a while now, I hear. That, and the DI and it's 7-spd transmission work beautifully all put together. 51K isn't bad at all for such a car. But, agreed, not everyone can afford it.
Agreed. That tires part had me astonished too. Narrower tires on both front and back, and GM was advertising that the C7 Stingray was outperforming the C6 Grand Sport. I couldn't believe it, but looking at its lap times and other performance #s that car has been putting down, it's amazing
American power the best
Datsun lol
***** koul kayreh
***** Nissan
Now i always wondered why they didn't do another test featuring the ZR1 against the real top dogs like the 599 GTO and 911 Gt2 RS later on.
I guess the new GT-R is much faster. 0-60 mph 2.7 Quarter Mile 10.8
Would be pretty cool to drive all of those back to back. I would take the Porsche or the 599.. just so much more refined.
personally i love the GT2
Corvettes are the best!!
how about they do it with this years models and switch out the gtr for the new 2014 or 15 nismo that came out
iimrgam3r ok ill wait 3 - 4 years to see a Corvette win my nissan or maybe nissan wont just keep it the same either and improve the gtr. so im guessing that in 3-4 years my nissan will still win.
iimrgam3r if it makes you feel better. go ahead and keep dreaming
Carlitos Chido some people are claming the nismo is not the quickest GT-R when it comes to drag racing. Its built for circuits. i honestly dont know the numbers. whats your take?
world traveler i think stock it would be way better than in a straight line it does have 600 hp and has a 2.3-2.4 0-60 time so it still beats almost anything from 0-60 and many super cars in the quarter mile with under 10 sec my opinion with it being stock i say its better with track but i would like to see a alpha 16 or better packet to see what it can do
Carlitos Chido sounds pretty badass
I used to hate all corvettes. Never wanted to buy one. Ever. But the ZR1 changed everything I knew about vettes and supercars and value for the money. Now I'm thinking of ZR1, new '14 Sting Ray or Z06 as a possible alternative to the Porsche.
Um the R35 was out before the ZR1. The only vette that competed was the z06... Then all the sudden chevy throws out the zr1 and everyone starts comparing... try a zr1 to a 2014 gtr or if your mean the nismo r35... it's called up with the times people.. plus ice seen the GT2 spank zr1 in drag races and it beat it on nurburg...
Gt2 has never beaten a zr1 around nurburgring and check the drag times of zr1 here on you tube . .10.66 all stock on stock tires and as fast as 10.26 on drag radials ,but otherwise stock.Check bruce fartpipe and Kyle lemish s videos.
Haha that's y the z28 beat it haha
Lmao this guy nismo isn't stock if you want to play that game try the ligenfelter zr1 vs nismo gtr lol not to mention I would never spend over a 100 grand on a Nissan lol the corvette zr1 will be a future classic and that's why if I had the money I would spend a hundred grand on a corvette. I don't see older gtr going for over a 100 grand these days lol oh not to mention that new zo6 is gonna spank alot of cars lol
Kamren Zinzow GT-R's lose their value quite quickly, they go for about one third their original selling price. That's only after 3 years.
+Chris Pappas 2012 Zr1 for 70k in my area, Nissan has a 2012 gtr for 83k so.. there goes that lmao
The latest model nissan gtr is faster than all of these super cars
That's a 2009 Vette. Compare the new GTR with the newest Vette coming out.
EdwardDG2 And yet the old zr1 still shits on the 2014 base model gaytr not to mention the 2014 z28 Camaro destroying the 2014 gaytr track edition....... rofl
Truth Teller its wasn't a race it was a comparison
Black_ Guy Gaming I am not talking about this video, I am talking about official lap times of the 2014 gaytr "track edition" being destroyed buy old zr1's and new z28's on tracks :)
The latest models of all these cars are faster than all these cars.
It's called evolution.
GOD ZILLA world domination since 2007:
1) Most performance and engineering awards last 6 years
2) Best bang for the buck supercar on the planet last 6 years running
3) Full production car Nurburgring champ...7:08 min at the ring (R35 Nismo)
4) 1/4 mile street car champ...7s in the drag strip (Alpha Omega R35)
5) 1/4 mile drag champ....6s (just like 2k+ hp vettes/fords)
When the dust settles, R35 > C6 and always has been. In this video above, they compared a 640hp muscle car to a 480 R35 street car. Why not compare a 590hp R35 to a 640hp ZR1 instead? ^^
I have pics of this car. It looks nothing like the one Nissan is showing to the public. All that camo hiding numerous pipes and shit all over the car.
Thats in leymans ters = ringer.
Nice try tho Balufoc.
vm2003 That 7:08 time is bullshit. The "Time Attack" GTR is not the same as a GTR Nismo w/ Track Pack. The Time Attack isn't street or emissions legal. It had modifications to its tune, aero, and torque vectoring system among other things.
they did test at a 1/2 mile not a 1/4 mile the porsche gt2 would have finished 1st,the nissan gtr 2nd, the ferrari 599 3rd, and the corvette zr1 in 4th place.
i dont think zr1 can stand a gtr nismo
+محمد الدوسري They run 0-150mph in the same time but the Zr-1 started pulling away after that.
nismo standing mile 29.4s@165.9mph
ZR-1 standing mile 28.7s@177.1mph
This ZR1 still more power, more torque, less weight. And cost less even when it was brand new
Your mom can't handle this D :'D
considering the nismo is awd and auto and that its not necessarily any faster than a zr1 says a lot
ok ok nissmo vs lingenfelter zr1
2012 GTR is faster than 599 GTO on top gears track. 1:17.8. faster than Veyron Faster that Zonda F and Zonda F Roadster...
Kurumi Megurine And if there are iconic racing teams in the world its Ferrari, Porsche, and Chevrolet.(Corvette). the Corvette beat the record at Nurburgring the GTR has NOT. The vette has years of racing history and metal. the GTR..NO
nurburgringlaptimes.com/lap-times/lap-times-top-100/
nothing more must be said
haha that website is not right the ZR1 is not on there. Go to www.nuerburgring.de/en.html
Kyle Healy you may have forgotten that there's no company called corvette or ZR1
no really... is there a company called GTR
Kyle Healy No years of racing history? Lol The 240z and The original Skyline GTR were iconic just like the Stingray corvette
I've never driven any of those Porsche Carreras, so I wouldn't know, but I have heard a lot of good comments about the fun in driving them. German engineering is exquisite, imo, and it isn't all about putting down nice numbers, it's about the quality and the experience. If that makes any sense.
ZR1 drag race my ass. MT seems having trouble in rating the performance level. GTR vs ZR1 vs GT2 non RS vs 599GT"B"!? Why top of the line vs base? Pussy? Why GTR? Coz GM pay you for doing such disgusting things? Lol Go do Texas mile greatest drag race then see which car would be the king. Ps. AMS and UR will show you what "King" stands for.
They should have used the 599 GTO. The LMR Corvette probably will beat the AMS GT-R.
Yes they shoul use GTO. LMR Vette is a piece of shit. Nothing come close to AMS alpha 16 with full boost. And if you're talking about real beast, how about Drummond TT Viper?
You do realize they're comparing stock cars right? The AMS GTR's are heavily modified
Since this comparison is a bias unfair battle, I don't care.
:o no it wouldt.
This is a lie gtr is faster of all
Fullest sure
yeah no, you watch too much "heavily tuned gtr" videos
Lmao ... Nissan tries and again they will try but Chevy will deliver and they will have to try again .. Lmao ..
the 2009 ZR1 has ran 10.6 @ 133 bone stock in the mile and the 2014 Track pack has hit 11.0 @ 125. the Zr1 also gets a 0-60 0f 2.9 and a 0-100 of 6.4. the GT-R gets a 0-60 of 2.7 and 0-100 of 7.0 the GT-R has never seen a 0-60 of anything better than 2.6.
Modern day....GTR is the fastest.
LOL, modern day, McLaren MP4-12C does the quarter in 10.8 sec....
2014 Porsche 911 Turbo S 0-60 in 2.6 Sec (Road and Track) quarter in 10.9 sec
2014 Nissan GTR quarter in about 11 sec
And the McLaren is much faster on many race tracks
A 2014 Porsche 911 GT3 (about the same price as the Nissan now) is easily a match for the GTR on a racetrack. Lighter is better in many circumstances (racing).
Mark Ferris your 0-60 times for the 2014 gtr are incorrect.
Mark Ferris my bad...not 0-60 the QM time
With drag radials the 2009 ZR1 can pull the 1/4 in the low 10's.
Modern day.... 2019 corvette zr1 is the fastest
hilarious, what have GM pay for @ motor trend? hahahaha! Only in USA the american car win...
Another way of saying that is European cars only win in Europe.
Ironsights51
show me the US-car that can handle the european quality! No bud, american cars ar not realy the best, this is why nobody would buy them..
You ever heard of Laguna Seca? Might wanna check the lap times out.
Ironsights51
ahh sure, on seca are the same "serious" test like on the Nürburgrign, with modified GM cars? C'omon!!
Your making an assumption. I could just as easily assume the 458 is modded at every track it laps, but I know that isn't true, just like the ZR1 being modded isn't likely true either.
The gtr wasn't even floored. This is the biggest BS ever.
I have been racing a friend with a 2014 GTR for a couple years now and he hasn't been able to even beat my Z06. Granted I run drag radials, full exhaust and a tune.
The 2008-2011 model GTR had only 485 hp. For 2012 they brought up to 530, 2013-2016 it got 545, and 2017 gets 565. A 2012 and up would've won no problem
The new zo6 c7 is gonna be atleast 650hp not 620 or 640. It already holds what they say an "astonishing" record breaking time on the track they use and that's just with the developers toying around with the suspension and engine tuning without being serious. The GTR is and has made a name for sure but it's not the best or the fastest car in the world. Yeah the new GTR may beat the zr1 now but lets face it. I have seen plenty of races where a factory zr1 and a factory GTR from 2008 til 2013 race and with a good driver the zr1 stays with the GTR and at times beats it. The vette only has 505rwhp out of it's 638. They de-tuned the car at the ring. GM is leaving drag racing for whoever wants to do it. They make cars now days to go on a track. They have won 14 championships in 5 different racing divisions in 2014 alone with the track-able cars they have built. When that new vette hits the track it's gonna cause nissan yet again to build something better.
GT2 RS would smoke that gay zr1
how? i own a 2010 zr1 and it has over a 100 more hp stock than at GT2 so dont be mad it got smoked, it never stood a chance
it's a 6 banger no matter what
GTR shit
gay zr?? pppfff lmao come on baby girl dont use your brother account lmao
Fuck off mate
lilripsta313 the GT2 RS still would smoke the ZR1
ZR1 still king of the hill to this day
Suspension was the same. Tire were stock. Optional still means stock. Completely road legal tires. It was a bit heavier.
yup and 4 more cylinders as well...except for the mclaren mp4-12c...which has way lower hp than the corvette! People always make comments without knowing what the heck they are talking about.
Truely is an amazing car and how fast it stops is truely remarkable also... Finally.. Chevy has a made a awesome car that I like (Including the Zl1 ofc ;)
It's Not 4wd, it's AWD. The ZR1 is amazing for the price point
RIP ALTIMGAMR
May we remember him from him taking trolling to an unheard of level. He got torched so bad in an argument where he had no comebacks what so ever that he finally realized the ZR1 is (STILL) the superior sports car. R.I.P Ricer.
Lol that guy hated me so bad back then
They tested the GT-R and the zr1 in a drag race and the gt-r won it has got much better acceleration and aerodinamics, and also the power of all 4 wheels!
Yeah? Me neither! We'll see if its really January. Who knows...? Its just a rumor.
Theres also a Stingray time @ Nurburgring btw. I heard something from someone that knew someone else from inside GM that the marketing team is keeping the time a secret until they feel is the right time to make it public!
ill never understand how people can think the gtr is good looking. its like theyve never seen other cars. its most likely their cool friends or influential videos and magazines that make them like them. theyre about as much fun to look at as a van gogh next to a rembrandt. the rembrandt will make the van gogh look like kindergarten fingerpainting. not much skill, but that was the times of the late 1800s, the middle classes were forming and people had money to spend and low ability artists had a living to make. this is the GTR compared to nearly every other sports car. sure the canvass might be more technical but the paint on it is what sells.
2014 GT-R Track Pack will slaughter all these cars around a track, even the new editions of them. Don't even try to argue against it.
Have you seen the new widebody kit renderings for the C7s?? If the C7 Z07 comes out with those, people will go mad trying to get them. They look SICK! lol
It's really not fun when you race cars with the same amount of horsepower. Nice video 👌
Corvette is the least expensive car in the group, and beats them all. Poor journalism to neglect to include each car’s price.
The track pack is good for the track that's it, it's made to go around corners. The zr1 is made for corners but specially for straight lines.
Oh yeah, I heard about that, but never saw any videos of it. Best video I've seen, I think, was a 11.8 or something. It was only logical, though, if you think about it. The thing puts down a bit over 410RWHP, very similar to the C6 Z06, and we all know the C6 Z06 does low 11s if well-driven.
Whats the difference the best time the GTR posted was a 1078 compared to the Zr1's 1066... What good does that do? Not to mention the new Zr1 will be even faster.
No way, GTR is the real deal
So 1 thousand horsepower is 1 thousand horses so for 5k horsepower we just need 5k horses
Im actually not suprised ive been talking to hennessey and they are also having a package ready for the nismo... I was extremely dissapointed though when I went to the dealership and they couldnt start the 2011 Gray Zr1 because I really wanted to hear it :(
Can't wait to see what the new zr1 can do when its released. The gtr probably will be no competition for it. Corvettes are so sexy
1:10 "And only one word comes to mind: drag race." Um, drag race is two words.
This is Corvette, Porsche and Ferrari. Nissan shouldn't even be in this race.
It also ran 11.6 @ 120 mph bone stock. The incoming rentals @ MIR Atco and Cecil will be interesting. With a cool fall weather we might see sub 11.5 stock Stingray. Not bad for a car that starts at 51k..
A ZR1 is starting 120,000
Are you asking me who I think would win? Again it depends on the drivers.
ride though the hood, break down in the hood, get jacked in the hood, chevy presents then ZR1
Great vid of the ZR1 beating these great cars..Good work GM/CORVETTE
Sorry the Corvette ZR1 torque won the race not its horsepower
***** Please in the future keep your ill informed opinions to yourself YOU
R NOT A INTELLECTUAL BE QUITE!
Better Nurburgring time? Corvette Better Quarter Mile? Corvette Better Standing Mile? Corvette Faster Car? Corvette (as you clearly admitted 201 is in fact slower than 205+ mph)
They did test the 2014 GT-R. Take it to a drag strip and it'll run the same numbers. 11.0 @ 125. maybe on negative DA and a highly Prepped track maybe a 10.9 @ 126.
the Zr1 that ran 10.6 was bone stock as he dynoed it and it made stock numbers. MT isn't even close to biased. You even said top gear UK is biased when in every episode they're biased. That's why they're known more for entertainment than being an actually reviewer. the GT-Rs 0-100 time is in the 7s. the ZR1 is in the low 6s.
I seriously doubt GM will ever make an engine with this much horsepower ever again! It is amazing, but wheel spin can be bad. Probably going to be a huge collector car.
How about a 755 horsepower ZR1? Welcome to 2019 lol.
haha mustang american made ford such joke! horrible car... owned one before... mustang is overrated!! proud owner of a Mercury!!
Yeah, Mercury is really different from Ford...
Juan Flores Poor fellas probably rethinking his whole life.
Tweeaak Tweek
Nah, I think he was just trying to rustle some jimmies.
Chad Andersen Don't lie you know you take the bus.
It's crazy to see the change in video quality from this videos time (8 years ago) and now (2017).
More reliable? You're joking. High performance DOHC engines aren't reliable at all. The GTR is certainly better than European but an OHV engine will always be more reliable. OHV = Less moving parts, less expensive to build and maintain, lower center of gravity, better torque in a wider range, smaller physical size even with large displacement, more power on less boost, etc. Most car makers don't use OHV because of the social stigma though. Sad.
Now the Z06 keeps getting spanked by the king of the quarter mile race GTR
It wasnt modified to win it has a greater power to weight ratio that is why it won.
wow all these foreigners hatin on the vette. what do you think the vette would be like if we put another 150k into each one to make it cost comparable? a modded Z06 will blow the zr1 away for around 60k total cost. bring your lambos and gtrs and your pink slips. hahahahahhahaha
At the end of the day, Porsche is still the best out of all those 4. :)
1k of dislikers that cant take an american as a winner fuck foriegn cars
Why are all the GTR fanboys complaining? The corvette is the same year as the nissan in this video... And who says it can't turn? It has one of the fastest laps on the nurburgring.
