Shouldn't the R8 GT be faster because it has a stronger engine and better proformance

GT-R is a car for only one track... Nordschleife...
And only Nissan can did the time in this car. If this is a motoring magazine measure the time turns out to that it is NOT at all faster than R8 GT.

What a jerk.... The ugly win again! I hate to say this but ugly (GT-R) was unbeatable. If handsome (R8 GT) got more power and acceleration speed, it will be the winner since this 2 already has good handling.
