SS717 did it. 570S vs ZR1 to 180+ MPH.

I already have a manual driver’s car 991.2 GT3. I was only considering a ZR1 for its raw performance. I was hoping performance in par with 700HP cars such as Mclaren 720S and GT2RS. So far from what Im seeing, we lowered our expectations and trying to convince ourselves that being beat by a 570S is ok.
Maybe this guy representing ZR1 is just a bad driver so i will hold my final decision until i see more tests and numbers. I care about tracks not roll races, but with 755HP a car better trap at least 135mph or there is something wrong with it.
Best Regards,
Dave

A Z06 will run a Huracan no issue. So if a 570S walks a Z06 then a 570S also walks a Huracans. Z06s are trapping 155-160 on the half too. Maybe this is all BS from mike that’s confusing the game then. Because according to those figures they’re all really close. I don’t know how often anybody drives/races over 160 MPH anyway.

Your conclusions seem to be accurate. But I watched (riding shotgun in a 1200 AWHP GTR) a Z06 with stage 3 aero with only a Halltech, run a stock Huracan neck and neck until like 160 where the Huracan's aero advantage took over and it began to pull away. I imagine a 570S would put it away a little sooner, likely 130-140 MPH.

Are you friends with Cable in his ACR-E and 2013 9.0 liter? The reason I ask is I would be surprised if someone with the same name is down in AZ with him. He speaks very highly of your driving!

I am not a drag racer by any stretch but I thought I had heard in the past that trap speed has lees to do with driver input and more to do with the power the car is making? Whereas ET is driver skill related?

More or less that is correct. Trap speed is essentially power to weight (and drag, etc..). Assuming the driver does a reasonable job of shifting then there is little room for significant deviations in trap speed between different drivers on the same day/conditions. ET is purely how efficiently that power is utilized all the way down the track, and particularly the first 330'.
In other words, person A could run 13.0 @ 130MPH and person B could hop in and run 10.5 @ 130MPH.
