Seriously? An "endurance type race"? That's the best comeback you can come up with? I know when I'm shopping for a sports car the top two items on my list are "is it easy to drive" and "will it run good in an endurance race".


BTW, have you even followed the GT-R in any racing series? Not those Best Motoring rigged races, I mean actual sanctioned races. It doesn't do well at all, getting its ass handed to it by Corvettes, Vipers, 911's and even the Cadillac CTS-V. If you don't believe me, head on over to www.world-challenge.com or www.gt1world.com where there are results of the various races they've run in.

Bottom line: the car isn't competitive at all. Just because you can run a fast lap at Nurburgring doesn't mean the car is actually a good base for a race car, as several teams are finding out. Cuz, you know, race series have rules that everyone must adhere to, so Nissan can't send a juiced up car like they can when they run Nurburgring.

All of which makes your endurance comment all the more entertaining.
No one is coming up with an excuse. It's your fucked up fanboy mind that thinks people are making excuses. Car enthusiast can appreciate every car's strengths and weaknesses.

Lol, I have never even said GTR drivers are skillful, but given the same average joe driver, he can do well better in GTR and can probably enjoy more pushing its limit than driving a ZR1.
