Any way, I like both

Sorry that's a dumb comment.

7.0l + fat turbos > gtr + fat turbos

lol "you should at least give the gtr some decent sized turbos" :l ??? yeah, because the vette has decent sized turbos, right?

Thats the stupidest argument ever, all the ricers thought the GTR was the end all be all of imports, and it was going to crush any domestic counterparts. And anyone who thought that is a ------- idiot, I knew the GTR didnt have a chance at the c6z06 much less the ZR1, for fucks sake the c6z06 runs ------- 10's stock on slicks. And low low 11's on factory tires.

it sounds so weird racing 2 stock cars. it looks/sounds like neither of those cars can get out of their own way. night racing videos = fail

Who cares if theyre stock cars, they're both respectable cars. The ricer argument has been crushed. GTR has been KO'd and the Zo6 is victorious

im not really saying anything about the cars themselves, their both really nice. im just saying that stock cars sound ------ weird when they race. neither really pull away and it makes them both "look" slow in the video.

a z06 would be a fun/fast street car, but corvettes just arent for me really

I can't watch the video due to being at work, but I'm guessing based on the comments its a couple of lucky people with nice cars racing them?

Doesn't really prove that one is better than the other, the driver skill plays a big part.

Doesn't the GTR still hold a better nurburgring time than the Z06? I'd still take a stock z06 7.0l v8 over the boosted v6 any day...or even the zr1...but that's based on the potential of the engine and not stock speed.

From what i hear, they have better times because they cheated, used slicks and started from a roll.

Sounds like it could just be a BS excuse, but I don't know either. If one thing beats a fanboys weapon of choice, they always seem to have an excuse, so it's hard to put any validity on it until I see some facts.

Don't care either way, they're both fast and I'd still take the vette over the GTR, but I wouldn't bash the GTR because it still performs pretty damn well for less power and more weight.
