Would have been better if the Stang had better tires on it. That was just a display of drip more than anything.

As much as I like the mustang, I don't think this was a fair fight, they aren't on the same level as track cars. I say save your money and get the base GT500 as the KR really isn't that much better for the money you pay for it and have money left to buy an STI or mods for the GT500 happy days

Or just buy a set of drag tires and see how they stack up

Of course it's not a fair fight.

One was designed as a high end performance car from the ground up.

The other is a hopped up version of a car designed for secretaries and balding men in their midlife crisis

Put some drag radials on the GT500 SS should be quite an even match to the GTR.

For straight line 1/4 mile performance should be similar even with both at stage 2 bolt on modifications.

I rather drive the GTR as a daily driver even it costs twice as much.

North American car review shows are so damn lame and corny compared to Top Gear.

I think the race was fair from hp or price perspective.
The GT500 Super Snake makes 245hp more than the GT-R, but it's only RWD...so it was an interesting race.

Shelby GT500 Super Snake
725hp, RWD
$79,820 US-$84,820US


Nissan GT-R
480hp, AWD
$80,790US-$83,040US
