Btw, the ZR-1 uses a roots-type supercharger, ie. it'll suffer from massive heatsoak when the laps start adding up.
I am not sure about numbers, but the Vette also has to have a fairly significant weight advantage over the GT-R as well. So tons more HP and a lot less weight only translates into a slight advantage for the Vette.

The GT-R appears to be a great numbers car, but I can't get past the looks and Nissan badge (at that price) and soccerjunky's Viper is bad ass, but I personally prefer the Vette...holy sh!t. Did I just say I would choose the Vette? Hell has frozen over.
