[QUOTE="tt335ci03cobra, post: 16312830, member: 68944"] At road Atlanta, 158mph is very fast on the starting straight. If you can come onto the straight off the final cork at about 115-120 mph, you have a chance to crest 150 in a 750hp+ machine before a seriously tight right hand corner iirc down to about 80mph at the apex and 95mph exit speed. Good luck, hope you have huge balls and a gt2rs to give an idea. I highly doubt VGJ was on the front straight doing 158. 158 is slow for the back straight. It’s not very hard to hit 155-160 with a stock c6z on that back section. [MEDIA=youtube]fvH5bSVhgEI[/MEDIA] Gt350r on road Atlanta and he does 145 cautiously on the back straight, 130+ on the front straight. (It’s not a video game. It’s real life) In my head/gut, I would presume the gt500 cftp would hit 165-170 on the back straight on an excellent lap, getting all of it. On the front straight, I could see it getting straight at 120-125mph on a killer lap with a run out to 140-145 on the front straight with late braking the first turn. Between braking advantages, stability, 760hp, dct, and most importantly, the sticky rubber, you should be able to really drive the tires entering the straight at about 65-70mph and staying deep to late brake and enter the left hand kink/sweeping right hand run after to the top of the hill. Hitting 158 on the back straight is a very conservative lap imo. I imagine a perfectly driven gt350r could hit 151-153 for context. [/QUOTE]
