We all love a good review of our favourite cars and just can’s seem to get enough of a comparison with a competitor with each being put through a barrage of tests to see who comes out tops.

Brit car magazine Autocar have always been putting out some pretty interesting head-to-head comparisons, sometimes with surprising results, and this time around, they’ve lined up the current king of the road, the Nissan GT-R, against a Formula 3 racecar on a rain-soaked track.

Honestly, the comparisons have been getting a bit pointless and this just isn’t helping. But then again, the internet trolls have talked the GT-R up to be almost invincible on the road and would probably only lose out to Zeus’s chariot.

For the record though, we’re just like every other petrolhead out there and would make love to a GT-R given the chance but the whole purpose of a comparison is to put two peers up against each other, not a purpose-built formula racer and a road-going sports car.

Nonetheless, you’re all probably wondering if the GT-R gave the single-seater racer a run for its money. Heck, even we did, so enjoy the video.

As mentioned in the video, the F3 is at least 11 secs quicker in lap times than the GTR, so no contest really.
