Using the launch control on the old ones voided your warranty.
The 2010 GTRs do not come with launch control though...
Dude, what the hell are you talking about? The 2010's come with LC! O9's can be taken to Nissan for their ecu reflash which drops the rpm launch to 3500rpm. You can now launch 09 GTR's without fear of voiding your warranty. Stop spreading false info please!

sorry but this video is older then shit..... dont see how none of you guys have seen it before? I mean yea it was THE FIRST RACE between a GTR & Z06. so you can imagine how old the video is. but anyway yea it was a good race. & that Hitler video is GREAT!
yea sorry guys for the repost. I guess i just dont see the hype in the gtr. I would rather own the z06. call me a nutswinger i guess. didnt mean to stir a pot in here, shoulda proly not sounded like a dick in the first post.
So many misinformed idiots still complaining about this GTR warranty! For the 10000000th time, you can now use the LC without fear of voiding the warranty. Nissan changed the clause for 2010 models and previous years. 09 models need only go to the dealership for the reflash, in which it lowers the LC from nearly 5000rpm to 3500rpm launches!
Anyways, give me the GTR anyday. Far more refined vehicle with a turbo motor and TRANSMISSION that has proven to hold 800hp reliably.
I would take either car personally. I love rowing my own gears as well, but these dual clutch transmissions that are in factory cars definitely kick some ass. I would think the GT-R is better for a guy who isn't that good at road racing and can learn to drive a faster car. The Z06 is definitely much more of a drivers vehicle and not for the light at heart to really throw around a road course. As far as drag racing goes, that's not really what I'd buy either car for. I could get a camaro or mustang for that.
Both are great cars!!!
but when racing from a dig the Z06 driver better not make any mistakes during the race, because he will definitely get beaten badly by the GTR if he did, GTR's are no joke specially from a dig
Lastly Give me either of them & I'll be more than happy

GTR hung in there pretty good...big weight differance...plus awd isnt the greatest from a roll.
Awd does not affect the way a car reacts from a roll. Whatever power the car is making, is what it will make when racing. The drivetrain loss is already factored in.

Kind of worded that incorrectly...rather its strenght is obviously from a stop.
Don't compare new cars to 3 year old cars. If you want to play that game, I'll just but a '97 Z51 and put a h/c/i 408 LSx in it and stomp the Z06 for half the price. Gimme a break
Why not?
Clearly this video was comparing just that.
These are two top dog street cars from both companies, I hate the GTR, looks like a ricer's wet dream, and has every assist known to man, and clearly still lost to someone with skill.
