  • chevrolet corvette zr1 should challenge supercars like mercedes benz slr mclaren and lamborghini murcielago not weak ugly cars like this bad porsche

  • this show is soooooooo fake or the driver in corvette zr1 can not drive it or he is blind and deaf because chevrolet corvette zr1 can eat this porsche and can smoke it in any race or any challenge

  • u tube /OZlGMX8G3B4 here is the corrected race all they needed was someone with nuts to drive the zr1

  • Both are great cars but I guarantee that 9/10 of us can drive the Corvette faster around a track. The GT2 needs a damn good driver in it to get the best out of it. If you can do it, more power to ya.

  • let me drive that Vette, I have owned 4 and I can beat that piece of shit any day with a coupe.

  • Corvette is so much nicer looking

  • You can have two ZR1's for the price of one Push.

  • In the US, Federal law requires that a car be sold with either a spare tire or run flat tires. The Vette does not have a spare. Run flat tires are as hard as stone. Put some decent rubber on the Vette and the Push will be playing follow the leader. At a distance.

  • 2010 Porsche 911 turbo goes to 60 in 2.9 second, 2010 turbo s as 30 more hp then regular turbo, GT2rs hit nunburgring in 7:18.000 way faster then anything corvette or Nissan as to offer, new Ferrari 458 or GTO would walk all over ZR1 or GTR.

  • guy driving the zr1 is a sellout

  • Porsche isnt made of plastic though

  • GT2 520hp

    ZR1 640hp

    Porsche PWNS...!!

  • I think the vette wins...but oh well>>>>BULL SHIT they did the lanch over a walky talky if you ever used 1 You know The are delayed like a cell phone...that raced sucked..Get a tree fags

  • GT2 the best!!

  • the zr1 driver is a bad driver

  • if there british...  dont watch there car comparisons... except top gear

  • British fuck cant even drive.

  • I just saw another show were the zr1 beats the gt2 from a stand still

  • bullshit.

  • @needs3 Shut up stupid american

  • lol. The ZR-1 dominated the second race.

  • in the 1:33 said all . the zr1 is more fast.

  • All you euro fans just be happy. Porche had it's day at the top still a great car now it's a new day and age and you will have to make room for the Vette and Skyline. These cars are working the euro cars over. Let's not for get the Viper, it does amazing things to.

  • Porsche GT2 RS... 7:27 on the Nurburgring, look up the ZR1. And ZR1 chassis was fully reworked in Europe, we gave the Corvette it's day (read 15mins of fame)

    Viper does well, but needs a 8.3L V10 to do it, the only other competitor close interms of displacement is the ZR1 (6.3L). GT-R is 3.8, GT2 RS is 3.8... engineering always prevails.

  • didnt motor trend do this race with the 599gtb and gtr, gt2 and zr1 and the zr1 killed them all

  • Recently, the ZR1, Aston Martin, Ferrari, and a GT3 were tested by EVO Magazine.

    The Porsche was given the 5 stars...ZR1 given 3.5 stars. Why? Because everything the ZR1 does, the Porsche does brilliantly, and coveys FEEDBACK to the driver that is on another level. The vette was deemed crude, loud, tram-lined, and was all over the road. Like sex, you can come to the same end result, but some woman are FAR more satisfying to play with.

  • Yup. The guy driving the ZR1 had a horrible launch too. Crappy driver

  • Yes they did, and you're exactly right.

    "Autocar" isn't exactly the most renowned tester/magazine...so why don't you take "Matt" out of the ZR1 and put somebody worthy of driving it in there and "give it a go"..."hey?"

  • yep they were also able to launch the vette .1 seconds faster to sixty the the gt2. the motortrend guys also were able to launch the zr1 in 3.3 seconds versus this video's 3.82 showing how inaccurate this test is

  • this test is Pure Shite, a 12.06 second 1/4 mile time?? WTF and a 1 mile time of 29.45 at 176mph?? thats bullshit, a Stock ZO6 passes at 175mph, and all that extra bhp on the ZR1 mean it only gains 1 mph more? NEVER trust a EuroPean to actually test an American car to its full extent, juss look at the guy, he didnt even have his foot down, sorry but this is just as believable as a Mini Cooper S beating a 997 911 GT3 in a straightline.

  • He gets beat and then says "I've got him in the brakes though" like he means that not all is lost, at least he beats him in braking power..

    Thats funny because the ZR1 has Ferrari Enzo brakes, 15.5" (394-mm) rotors in front and 15" (380-mm) in the rear

    Compared to the GT2's 15" inches on the front and 13.7" rotors in the rear. Both have 6 piston front, and 4 piston rear with carbon ceramic pads.

    The Porsche weighs 3,800lbs, while the corvette weighs 3,350 pounds.

    So, who brakes better?

  • wtf are you on the porsche weighs les than the zr1 and the porsche wins in real life and paper is bullshit

  • one mile drag race, the zr1 has more hp both weight the same weird, what seems to be going on GM?

  • Look at the speedo at 2:05. It goes to 320 MPH!? Normally it goes to 370 kmh or 240 MPH. Strange!

  • 911's always do extremely well in standing start drags, numb nuts. Does "rear engined" say anything to you? Standing starts are about traction.

  • And straight line races are for shit drivers...

    Seen the recent Nurburgring time posted by GT2 RS? 7:27... what did the ZR1 manage? lol 7:38 was it? still with 30-40hp more?

    Engineering always prevails,

  • @adamrst The ZR1 did 7:26.4, dumbass.

  • Put a real pair of professionals drivers in the vehicles and the ZR1would have taken the GT2 from a dig. From a roll it should have won by more but with these limey bastards behind the wheel a Ford Focus would have been a contender.

  • the ZR1 would smoke the GT2, these guys don't know how to drive at all!

  • You foreign faggots dont know shit if you think a GT2 will beat a ZR1. You clearly see he got off to a horrible start and the driver admitted he did. And then from a roll race the ZR1 ass raped the GT2 by like 4-5 cars, but you idiots are still saying the ZR1 loss. Watch the fuckin video dickheads.

  • We saw the video did you? You GM toolboy cocksucker? The GT2 Still assraped that P.O.S. ZR1 Only in a roll did it win- why does it take 638 hp to beat only 530? With a smaller engine? And before you talk turbo-don't forget The ZR1 has a supercharger--Go fuck yourself you redneck GM inbred douchbag!!!

  • Fuck your mother FAGGOT. You green card having BITCH!!!

  • gm boys are upset. i think there might be some bias though. when i watch euro car shows the euro car wins but when i watch american cars show the zr1 is faster than a bugatti and a ferrari and a lambo shit the zr1 is faster than an f1 car

  • the guy how drive the Corvette CANT DRIVE at al

  • Zr1 fanboys dont like this bahahahahahha the big bad ls9 and gm still nedded to slap A s/c on it to be fast hahahaha

  • Forced induction is forced induction, you idiot. So you think it would be fair if the Corvette went N/A compared to the turbo GT2? Take that little turbo off and see what happens, when that "little turbo lag" becomes infinite turbo lag. Bye bye Porsche.

  • aw shut up gm suck gt2 won =)

  • Until GM made it even and added forced induction like the GT2, and won. :)

    But you can still see the lack of ability to drive with the right arm in that video too.. But the GT2 gets destroyed from a roll (which takes no driving skill)

  • and the GT2 is just fucking sexy looking

  • yea it is

  • Are you suggesting GT3 vs Z06? I'd like to see that!

  • Typical fucking GM bankrupt shitheads. GT2 WON THAT'S WHY ITS 200K YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!! ALL THE HORSES IN THE WORLD WON'T MAKE A POS ZR1 A SUPERCAR! That is all...

  • Now my friends Andrew and Anthony could shut the fuck up about American cars being the best

  • The Porsche GT2 won that's final so everyone bitching saying how they get paid to make Porsche win is fucking stupid if the corvette won other people would be saying the same shit it was close but the Porsche in my opinion has better traction and acceleration that's why I think it won

  • LOL from norway as well!!! on the test at nardo circiut they hit 125mph in 11.02 sec on the zr1 corvette.. and these guys did it in 12.05 sec nice..and 1 sec wouldt do pretty much in this drag and in these speeds...

  • I call bull. Get a real driver in that Vette and see what American Muscle can do. Motor Trend driver did 0-60 in 3.3 this noob did it in 3.82 and the Porche did it in 3.78. 1/4 mile the ZRi runs in in just over 11 ticks the noob ran the 1/4 in 12.06 and the Porche ran it in 11.83. That my friends is Bullshit HAHA JEJE or HOH on that import shit

  • I mean it does everything faster, quicker, better & cheaper then any car 2x it's cost I mean the money has to come from some where. I mean if interior is that important go have someone install hand stiched leather interior +10k =110-120k lol. Nothing will change it'll still be cheaper...and faster..in a straight, & on Nurburgring. Than 99% of the car wold.

  • Breaks 60-0: 97ft. 70-142-144. 80-183 spooky as in slams u agaist ur seat belt spooky? Transmission aka the "feel" u get when u shift is ppl complaints. Go buy an after market short shift & u'll solve that. Never heard "poor turn in" either, & I think that's a matter of wut type of car ur used to, or how u perfer a car to turn in. If it was "poor" it wouldn't be breakin records like it did at nurburgring ;-) I mean right..? that wouldn't make since.

  • The Porsche won.

    Case closed.

  • the ZR1 needs sumone who can drive...may i suggest the dude from motortrend...=)...this video needs to be taken off youtube...i mean come on...8.2 sec to 100 for the ZR1...not on my watch...try 7 secs flat...and a 12 sec 1/4 mile...plzzzzzzzzzz....try 11.2 thanks to motortrend

  • hey soggy @@@# same thing gonna happen on a strait line

  • not sea level

  • this vid is a fucking fake...nothing else...ohh ohhh..uhhh the mighty GT2 so what....nothing....the ZR1 driver cant drive thats all

  • the zr1 has already beat the gt-2 these euro shows r so bias

  • This Is Bullshit MOTORTREND did this test and smoked the Porsche. These UK car shows always put american cars down! Plus in AMERICA we use real drivers for our tests not some shitty joe blow off the street!

  • Well said man. Bunch of crap just to make who ever they r paid by look good. In this case Porsche. It's sad ppl just can't be realistic with the testing. Get's way to many ppl way too excited. ZR1 w/ someone who knows how to drive it well smash on just about anything in the 1/4 get rid of the run flats & even better.

  • What's really lacking here is real world data of real world driving...

    "spooky brakes"..."crude transmission"..."poor turn-in"..."poor interior for a $100,000 car".

    These are quotes you NEVER here about a Porsche, period.

  • First off, definately a driver error of the Corvette. The Corvette should be dominating.

    1/4 Mile ET: 11.210

    1/4 Mile MPH: 130.510

  • Also, the vette has about 100 hp more then the GT2...it still couldnt catch the GT2

  • Porsche GT2 in white... its so beautiful

    the zr1 is mad, but the porsche has the technic

  • Even if the Zr1 is better, the engine will only last 10 years at the most, after that, its gone to shit.

  • woooow this is such bullshit and they didnt even pick the good zr1

  • the GT2 is a great car but what a horrible launch on the ZR1. Even so the ZR1 should have had the GT2 by the 1/4 mile marker. Not sure if the driver was shifting the ZR1 at redline.

  • Wow.

    Look at the trap speed.

    The ZR1 was fractions of a second away from passing the Porsche.

  • Comment removed

  • This vid is nothing more then favoritism. Anyone who doesn't believes this vid is a hoax doesn't know anything about these two cars. 12.06 1/4 in a ZR1 I've never hear anything worse than 11.6. This vid is way too sketchy 4 me in so many ways. This is the 2nd vid they've made where they drove Vette against a Porsche & put up sketchy as* numbers. Not to mention they break camera 5 times during the race. plus they've already raced these two on youtube- ZR1 Drag Race King - Spanks GTR, 599, and GT2

  • THERE WAS no mistake, i dont know what u'er talkin' about, but GT2 maybe is slower for a bit, but in start, it's way way better....

  • it was driver error

  • porsche is better

  • The GT2 is a helluva machine! And its driver proves it by providing a solid quarter-mile run that is typical of other published test results on the car. But a 12.06 quarter for the ZR1 is definitely way over par; the car has routinely shown 11.3 to 11.8 seconds by scores of automobile publishersso why this discrepancy? Could this have been a "slower" production example? Maybe. But more likely, from what Ive seen in the clip, it's the fella behind the wheel - the guy's simply...

  • ...(continued)...a poor driver, as shown by his lousy reaction time and slow shifting. In fact, I think hes the same turd who couldnt work his way through the Z06s gearbox either, if memory serves, from their pervious Porsche vs. Corvette test. With the above in mind, that guy should be relieved of future driving duties if they expect any of their upcoming tests to hold water. Otherwise, theyll continue to remain somewhat of a joke.

  • please dude the Zr1 is more faster

  • ZR-1 Rules !!!

  • every time an american car loses, blaims always fall to the driver

  • it was the driver the guy is not good off the line the sec test showed the vette pulling away

  • yeah.. either because the driver messed up or because the driver isnt american

  • The guy in the ZR1 in the first race drives like a woman -- he doesn't know how ot shift (long ass shifts). While the GT2 is a totally badass car, I think the ZR1 beats it in the first race with a REAL driver. Either way, if anybody wants to give me either of them, I'll take it without complaint. :P

  • so that means the zr1 isnt faster than the fiorano, and a lot slower than the ferrari enzo

  • I say biased. In the video with the z06 vs GT2 he intentionally grinded every gear in the corvette while telling the viewer's what a pos it was. So i wont be taking any of their reviews as factually accurate.

  • Every other test shows the ZR1 in front. Apparently they are biased or someone needs to learn how to drive.

  • Vette needs driver mod.

  • For some reason the guy that tested the zr1 said that the corvette snacked on fried Ferrari, killed the Lamborghini. How would it do so if it cant beat a Porsche?

  • well the gt2 can beat the lamboo murcelico the best of lambo

  • also look at the trap speeds? it really doesn't makes sense for the fact that vette is clipping higher trap speeds at every time gate but manages to get higher time? math doesn't add up

  • neone who knows nething bout both cars know this isnt what normally happens

  • The ZR1 is a BARGAIN to buy compared to the gt2, that's why it wins this comparo for me...You can buy the vette and a small house to go with it for the price of the porsche!

  • Comment removed

  • Costing about twice the price, the GT2 should embarrass the ZR1, yet it doesn't.

  • porsche is a big name thats why it costs more for example you go to to any country and say do you like corvetts they will be like whats that but if you say porsche they say yea. american cars dont have big names

  • Both are great cars, but GT2 is my absolute favorite car. I must say, being a full 100 hp down, the GT2 sure gives the ZR1 a challenge! Also, we know the turbos have lag, but what about the ZR1's supercharger? Does it have lag as well?

  • No lag on a belt-driven supercharger, mate....

  • Porsche is still the best

  • Redo the match and I bet the GT2 get embarassed!

  • Clearly the Porsche got the better jump off the line! Redo the match and I bet the GT2 get embarassed!

  • I don't know, I watched both angles several times. It appears both cars' tires start moving at the same time. Even so, with a 100 hp advantage the ZR1 should embarrass the GT2, yet it doesn't.

  • autocar did the exact same thing with the z06 last year but every other test from every other mag shows otherwise

  • Not sure I follow. Yes, Autocar did the ZO6 v GT2, and yes, the GT2 spanked. Now Autocar says overall the GT2 has better 0-60 and mile, while ZR1 has better rolling start performance. But other mags says ZR1 is better all around. Who's biased? What's the truth? I don't know. Which car is better? That question is subjective. I personally don't care which is fastest, I like the GT2. Truth is GT2 is 100 hp down, yet performance is pretty freakin' close. Both are great, no doubt.

  • i think you missed my point the first time. What i was saying is that everytime autocar runs vette vs porsche, test results are pretty one sided favoring porsche when every other test shows otherwise. Anyways like you were saying about GT2 being down 100hp, Ton of cars have higher hp output and they're not that far apart. When you get up to that level of performance, only thing limiting the real performance is aerodynamics and tire.

  • sense it's a American made car !

  • i'm not married dum fuck !

  • mijto

  • super tare

  • The first race was the real one,

    the GT2 is more lighter and it has a faster gear shift thats why it smoked the ZR1

  • You Brits really need to learn how to shift. Don't worry it wont break Its a super car not a triumph. Keep the pedal to the floor and feather the clutch and slam the gear. I know that the Europeans have a hard time with that but the ZR-1 was built for American idiots that break everything. Oh and that launch was pitiful. Hire a pro drag racer and see a real different outcome.

  • rolls are for fat bitches haha

  • Oh...and the GTR is a champ for its HORSEPOWER....I mean name me a car with 480hp that will do 11.6 n the quarter...

  • The Evolution FQ-400 does 11.9 in the 1/4 mile with only 405 horses. It isnt the fat pig that the GTR is. Shame it has never been run around the Nurburgring.

    But both of those cars quickly fall behind true supercars after 60mph. The GTR for example is 25 seconds behind the ZR1 in a 0-186mph test.

  • Truth be told the GTR would be an absolute beast with the LS9 engine out of the ZR1. The LS9 weighs 100 pounds less than the V6 in the GTR and it produces gobs more horsepower and a much flatter torque curve.

  • Hennessy fixed that with the GTR600HPE

  • Problem is that it wont be reliable.

  • Yeah and will you get your car back? Hennessy steals cars sometimes.

  • Has anyone seen the zr1 blast past the GT2....599 and the GTR....these guys here are bias

  • i'm surprised the corvette didn't break down in the middle of the race !

  • LMFAO!

  • Why would that surprise you? The LS series engines have won man endurance races like lemans and set countless endurance records.

  • Funny, your wife says the same about you.

  • The faster car doesn't always win , alot depends on the most important part , " The Nut Behind the Wheel " .

  • zr1 is much faster than gt2 but the fucken driver dont know how to shift a manual gear box

  • Why the hell would they STAGE a dragrace? Must ridiculous and naive thing I've ever heard.

  • Really staged. Make a search for the Motor Trend comparo, the 'vette leaves the gt2 in the dust. No excuses needed.

  • Comment removed

  • Put someone in the Zr1 that knows how to drive. the Zr1 will do 0-60 in 3.3 seconds. i know for a fact the Zr1 will wax that GT2 anyday.

  • Zr1 is not faster than the GT2. You just saw it in this video, but it also depends on the driver. Yet I'm still betting the GT2 is faster on a track course than the Zr1.

  • Comment removed

  • watch?v=xjHb7blvpWg 11.05 stock zr1 quarter mile..sumone whose used to shifting...see and hear the difference?

  • have chevy guys drive the vette that actually know how to shift and have porche guys drive the gt2...the zr1 beats it in every catergory..and the gt2 will have sslight advantage over the z06

  • so u are saying..to beat the Gt2, u need to be a chevy guy..how stupid that sound.

  • no..im saying put sumone who knows how to drive a chevy..aka a person who knows how to shift..im 22 and by no means a pro...but i posted better 0 to 60 times and quarter mile times with a z06 then this ass did with a zr1

  • and u think..Autocar UK put any guy on the cars?

    don't be naive..they put some serious drivers con there.

  • Mate, if you can't SEE what a lousy driver the ZR1 guy is, there's no reason for you to continue in this type of a discussion.

  • tell that direct on the face of the driver..i bet your ass you would eat your words...lol

  • There should exist a TV program that could invite the Official drivers of the manufacturers to do all the tests. Then, we could see some better numbers :D

    I love the Porsche, but I also think that ZR-1 is faster, much faster!!

  • 6.2L steam engine produce 600 pounds of fat

  • LMAO!

  • the only thing american cars are good for is goin in a srait line

  • check the ring times buddy..chevy and dodge tear of the track..ford still lacks tho

  • Ford does not have a supercar... for now

  • Ford GT

  • That was back in 2005-2006 3 years ago. They need a new one.

  • i i bet the GT40 can take on the GT2

  • There are some videos of it blowing the GT2 away. So if that is true then the GT is still faster than this vette.

  • word..on a track i'll take a Ferrari every time...lol

  • if you can afford a ferrari..

    zr1 budget suuuuuper car.

  • no thanks..american cars are very poor on style.

  • Not all.

  • Viper is a big ass nose..SLR is way better.

    Vettes looks like something heavy fall on the nose of the cars and made it looks like a triangle.

    Muscle are too old..nice ones..but old.

    Ultimate Aero is but ugly from birth.

  • We learn today that you don't know how to launch that Vette !

  • im sorry I AM a porsche lover but the zr1 is faster hands down!

  • GT2 better hands down.

  • wow get that idiot out of the driver seat of the ZR1 and get someone who knows how to drive damn a 12.08 at 125 in the quarter what the fuck that guy couldnt drive an auto let alone an M6

  • the 911 won using only 3.6L

  • You can tell right off the line that this is total BULLSHIT. Its a known fact that the ZR1 destroys the GT2 in all aspects of acceleration.

  • Comment removed

  • Ahh.. the GTR is all hype in the world of supercars. Its low end numbers are only impressive because of its launch. After the launch the GT2 will eat it for dinner.

    It takes the GTR over 20 seconds longer than the GT2 to hit 186 mph and thats a long time.

    As for engine displacement.. thats really not an issue. The GT2 has a OHC engine and the ZR1 has a OHV engine. Although the ZR1 has large displacement the engine is actually very small for its powerlevel.

  • ZR1 and GT2 both are impressive cars with performance close to drag racing as well as in Nurburgring, but the GTR, where is the performance for his supposed time?

    I suppose this is pure marketing..

  • Comment removed

  • and now the ZR-1, though as I've said before, too bad it has to be supercharged. Now yes its cool OMG Supercharger, but I loved being able to say, you have that HP turbo, well naturaly aspirated this makes this much so ha. Even if the Vette was 7.0 liters with that 505 hp in the Z06. Eh maybe for Chevy's sake the fact that it has a supercharger will provoke sales

  • also thses guy's do not know how to drive a Corvette or at leas not something with an American V8, and a front mounted engine

  • at 1:08 , the zr1 was ahead ..how did it end up loosing ?
