The first video compares an Enzo to a GT-R it seems. We have no other details (tires, drivers, date/time). Enjoyed the video, but what do you expect people to comment on?
The second video shows some cars go by. So?
Not sure what is the point of this post and how it relates to ZR1's.

First Video is ZR1( not enzo ) vs 2012 GT-R - time 7.24.22, ZR1 - 7.26.40 i think. My point is GT-R is pretty quick compare to the previous version.
The 2 cars was dead equal in the first half.
Second video was just a few nice cars at the track, thats all.

The second video was just as useless, what did it exactly show?
This kind of post is totally useless, you must like to stir the pot.

I would like Nissan to just take a GTR from a dealer’s showroom floor and then run that car with no other tweaks or shady games. If it beat the ZR1 time, great! I can live with that, but stirring and stirring the pot with so much unknown creates very excited bench racers.

Like others, I'd like to see a factory-stock GTR go to the track. Perhaps this new '12 is factory stock. The notation on wikipedia lists it as 'stock,' but they touted that the one with the switched tires was 'stock' as well.

Thought some of you might like this. I went to the Redline Challenge (event 2) at Firebird (Phoenix) yeaterday and Lou G. in the LG Motorsports Corvette won, beating a couple of stout GTRs and a highly modified 350Z. I know -- modified cars, but in the end it was the big V8 over the turbo V6 that gave Lou a win in a drag race to the finish.

We shall see!
Plans include test sessions at the Nürburgring in the summer of 2011, with Hennessey hoping to ultimately break the 7-minute barrier.
(It's supposed to run a big 7-mile oval too (like the Sledgehammer?)!)

I will love to see this thing OBSOLETE all the heavy dogs! It would be a timely edition to one of the arguments I have been making with some of the wise car giants chimming in here all the time!
