Bumblebee Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 the R32GTR still has faster lap times than the current crop Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/188452-gtr-vs-the-v8-supercars/#findComment-3398135 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomek Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 32 holds the un-official lap record at 1.53 or there abouts. Not sure how true this statement is, seeing it's a good 10+ seconds quicker then the current V8's best.

giant Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 is that true! if a 32 still runs a faster lap then thats simply awsome! Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/188452-gtr-vs-the-v8-supercars/#findComment-3398155 Share on other sites More sharing options...
lingeringsoul Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 its sad there isn't a skyline vs evo vs wrx sponsored races. All these skylines sitting in the garage collecting dust.

RNGTR Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 (edited) 2:08.4651 is the lap record set this year.... the GTR was in the 2.13s or something from memory. A pretty good time considering the aero aids that are allowed today!

funkymonkey Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 What I want to see is JGTC/Super GT cars versus V8 Supercars! I think the DTM cars will chew em up and spit them out. They all have different restrictions etc, so you can't truly compare em. Would be awesome if someone would come up with a global touring car championship... I guess like the Mixed Martial Arts Championships for GT cars DTM > JGTC > BTCC > V8 Supercars > Nascar (yeehaw) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/188452-gtr-vs-the-v8-supercars/#findComment-3398230 Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkblade Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 What I want to see is JGTC/Super GT cars versus V8 Supercars! Would be an awesome sight but, wouldn't be fair. The Super GTs would need to have some restrictions in place. Going by lap times on circuits like Sepang, Motegi & Phillip Island - Super GT > Moto GP > V8 Supercars.

Bumblebee Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Well after watchin an interview with some race director dude, who was with the euro tourin cars and aussie cars as well as the americans and F1.. he says the JGTC cars are the fastest GT style cars on the planet.. and i dont think his wrong Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/188452-gtr-vs-the-v8-supercars/#findComment-3398264 Share on other sites More sharing options...

dangerous_daveo Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 2:08.4651 is the lap record set this year.... the GTR was in the 2.13s or something from memory.A pretty good time considering the aero aids that are allowed today! Aero aids on the V8s? Like I know they have wings and stuff... Also, when did that extra chicane go in? Given the type of race I would have thought the lemans series cars probably would have been best suited.

Zebbie Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Gun, I personally think that given the right rules, it'd be dammed interesting... If you looked the way that the Performace cars ran round the mount, and in many ways were quicker over the top, then a well setup GT-R with the power could be the package to win... As others have said, it'll be the restrictions and rules that kick it in the bum... ffs, the '32s IIRC, are still restricted on the intake for AUS circuit racing??
