Well "walk all over" might be a bit of an exageration... but it certainly has a chance at beating the ZR1 by a second or two.

true, it probably is an exageration, but shaving a few pounds off that 800lb weight handicap that the GT-R has and pulling a little more power from the engine will more than likely make up for the 3-second gap and them sone.

I would love to argue with you about that. Basically, I don't think Chevy will allow it.

they should be coming out with a V-Spec, V-Spec II, and Nur-Spec likethe R34

I haven't heard about any of those except the regular V-Spec, which supposedly ran an unconfirmed 7:25. I still think Chevy might offer a special performance package on the ZR1 to battle the V-Spec, otherwise they're in trouble.

you kinda have to be "in the know" to be familiar with those other packages

...or play Gran Turismo

Yeah, they're on both GT and Forza, but even then you have to really pay attention to even know the difference. I don't know if they'd do a Spec-Nur like they didn with the R34 since that was released as the premium tuning and suspension spec as tuned on the Nurburgring and the R35 as a whole was tuned mostly on the Nurburgring. V-spec isn't confirmed yet but we all know they're making it, V-spec II would probably come out after a few years as they did with the R34. I actually wouldn't be at all surprised if they release some special edition versions if the GT-R Cup car wins some big races like Le Mans or something.

they also came out with a Z-Tune and N1 Race Version for the R34, the R33 packages included the V-Spec, Autech Version, N1 and LM. the R32 packages were the V-Spec, V-Spec II, NISMO Group A Evolution, N1 Race Version
