Re: EVO magazine: Z06 faster than GTR

Because you know if it fails to beat those cars in a test that many have said will be one of the more important comparisons that it will be used as evidence that the GT-R was all hype. You know very well that is what would happen if that was the case.

But since it was tested on a different day it can't be a useful comparison, right??? So then there will be nothing to worry about. SportAuto 's test will be useless. If the GT-R is slower then it doesn't count.

But I guess the EVO, Car and Autocar articles are useful so we can look at those comparisons as useful IMHO.
Comparison test on the same day by respected publications = good.
