are u serious?
big power cars are useless in short twist roads in HK.
most of the time they are in 1st or 2nd gear.
most corners are within 100 meter or so, that is why I can keep up on corners
a civic can out run a 545 easy
1 more thing 1 of our member can pull away of all our 5er in a 323i
I think its also down to the driver, driving style

I don't know, bro - when we had a GT-R at one of our twisties meets this summer, the GT-R looked like it could eat M5's for breakfast with it's handling alone - I'm not even talking about the power.

On a very twisty track i'd love to see the GTR compete with the M3 CSL.

I have to agree. During our second Poconos meet this summer, I had member Extassy's GT-R running right in back of my 550 in some hellacious twisties. I was pushing my 550 as hard as it would go without running it off the road. And the GT-R in my rearview mirror looked like it was taking a walk in the park -- zero body roll and totalled composed. The GT-R is an amazing performance car.
but in fact, it is truely in the super car league

here is a map of the road at Tsuen Kam Road
on google earth it is 22?22'54.96"N 114? 6'43.62"E
when you zoom in you can see how short the roads are.

i am still trying to figure out the logic behind a 525 being faster then GT-R in any scenario, in any way, for any reason. I think explaining the logic behind the statement would help the skeptics, myself included, to better understand.
