Cool concept, but...no ZL1. And while the 1 Series is a baby badass, wouldn't the V8 3 Series have been a better choice? Would have been interesting to see the ZL1 and Skyline run heads up. And was it just me or did the Corvette get a terrible start?

very cool video ... but that darn GTR is just bad A$$ watched the Stig take it for a spin on BBC. Seen it at VIR / CMP / Road Atlanta and each time my arm is out the window ... just a bad car ....

One of the best videos I have seen on YouTube to date. Simple, to the point, and fun to watch. I too was also surprised with the finish of the Corvette. My bet was:

1st Nissan GT-R
2nd Corvette or Porsche GT3
3rd Ferrari 458

At least I got one correct. That GT-R is wicked fast, and just imagine if and when they bump up the power.
