The results are in and the GT350R put down a lap of 2:51.8 which is very respectable and is the quickest time ever recorded for it's price range. But the 2014 Z/28 posted a 2:50.9 time two years ago and was 0.9 seconds faster using the Trefeo R tire. I find this a bit hard to believe but I also believe the Trefeo R tire is faster than the PSC2 on the R. I'm pretty sure the R is faster on the same track, same day, same driver and using the SAME TIRES. We'll probably never find out but I'm sure the Camaro guys are happy. There were also some interesting comments about the PSC2 on the Grand Sport which they thought were faster than the tires on the R.
Other thoughts:
The R is faster than the $134,000 BMW M4 GTS.
The R is faster than the new $104,000 Cayman GT4.
The $46,000 Camaro 1LE, on the new Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar 3 tires, was 3 seconds slower than the $66,000 R . Looks like the newest version of the Goodyear F1 3 is a step up from the previous version. Still a nice showing from the 1LE.
The R is a LOT faster than the $202,000 Audi R8 V10 Plus. The Audi R8 V10 was easy prey in the Boss and even easier prey in the GT350.
The new Acura NSX: yawn.
The Corvette Grand Sport is FAST. Great showing against the Porsche GT3 RS, McLaren and Ferrari.
The Viper ACR is a beast! I've been on track with one in my 350 and it passed me so fast it nearly peeled the paint off my car.
You gotta love that both a Mustang and Camaro are even mentioned in the same sentence with some of the fastest and most expensive cars ever made. 8)
