You should read the article, too. There are loads of driving impressions on the road, track, and dragstrip.
On second thought, why bother? This is a GM forum, so the bias against the GT-R is unshakeable no matter what facts are presented.

The reaction time was longer because they said it was accelerating so quickly when they got to 100mph. That leads me to believe that the Z06 went past 100mph, thus it had to come to a stop from a faster speed.
For example:
Car A stops from 100mph (the GTR is an auto and they put their clutch foot over the brake thus stopping at exactly 100mph)
Car B stops from 104mph
Obviously, car A would have the advantage when timing 100-0.
