Anyone who thinks a R35 would beat a V8 Supercar on track should turn the Clipsal 500 on now.

Race between Nissan "Nismo" Leaf, Nissan R35 GTR & Rick Kelly's Jack Daniel's V8 Supercar.

1 lap of the Adelaide raceway, handicapped.

R35 was to leave 7 seconds after the Leaf, the V8 supercar was to leave 26 seconds after the Leaf.

there was about .3 of a second between the Leaf and the GTR, the V8 supercar wasn't far behind them both.

Yep. Just shows how quick V8SC are.

I only posted it because I remember a discussion on here a while back with a bunch of people saying a R35 would beat a V8SC.

It's a good demonstration as a R35 is bloody fast in it's own right. So it shows just how quick real race cars are.

The V8SC vs F1 vs Merc AMG at the Grand Prix is another good one to watch.

The comparison that Top Gear did in their sydney live show was pretty cool :)
Mark Webber in his RBR F1 car, Jamie Whincup in his V8 Supercar and Casey Stoner on his MotoGP bike. ->

I'm pretty sure stoner is just riding a cbr 1000 and not his gp bike. But even if he was the f1 cars still lap a fair bit quicker than a gp bike
