It was not the quickest 0-60 or even to 100. Would like to see the results of a track test where I am sure the Porsche and Nissan would come ahead.

Nice video, thks!
here's some data:
The ZR1 hits 60 mph in 3.70 seconds, 100 mph in 7.80 seconds, 150 mph in 16.61 seconds and it blows through the quarter mile in 11.50 seconds at 127.82 mph. Imagine what it would do with a pair of slicks.
Though I couldn't find actual 1/4 mile data for the other cars, sorry.

Give me the GT-R any day. With a little money and time that car will run circles around anything.
