I am surprised however 0-200kph. I though GTR and M6 would be about equal but seems M6 is faster even by 200 by then no LC so advantage M6. M5 would be little behind the same GTR then since M5 is slower than M6. I do think however with LC, GTR would be faster but since most races are on highway LC not going to help GTR
I've seen 2013 GTRs trap mid 120s in the quarter mile which is a good indication of how it would do on a rolling race. I expected a closer race, but the M6 put the beating on it. Just shows how monstrous the S63Tü is
