Just in case you haven’t been paying attention, there is a war going on here. A showdown between the American King and Japanese Godzilla on the famous public racetrack in Germany, the Nürburgring Nordschleife.
Nissan’s GT-R lapped the ‘Ring in a stunning 7:29:03, which blew the records held by supercars costing four-times as much. The 638 hp Corvette ZR1 became the new Nordschleife leader with a 7:26.4 time, but talk about the actual start time of both vehicles has kept people across the world arguing.
The crew at Garage419.com have edited together both video clips of the Corvette ZR1 and Nissan GT-R in a split screen comparison of their highly controversial Nurburgring runs.
Hardly scientific, but it’s an interesting piece of video which helps put the debate into perspective. Garage419 points our the timer displays for both vehicles do not use the same starting and end point so they added their own timer for comparison. Clearly there is one vehicle that is faster, but we will leave the analysis and final decision up to you!
