First off I'm Canadian so how does patriotic fit in to it?
Second off, and more importantly, do _yourself_ a favour and check out the specs. I'm going to make it easy for you and provide them.
2009 Nissan GT-R:
http://www.gtrnissan.com/specs.en.us.html
480 hp @ 6,400 rpm. 430 lb-ft torque @ 3,200–5,200 rpm.
Curb weight (not from specs page, not lsited there) a whopping 3800 pounds.
Power To Weight Ratio: 7.91 lb/hp
2007 Corvette Z06:

505 @ 6300 RPM. 470 lb-ft torque @ 4800 RPM
Curb weight: 3132 lbs
Power To Weight Ratio: 6.20 lb/hp
2009 Corvette ZR1 (Blue Devil)
http://jalopnik.com/cars/detroit-aut...r+1-301413.php
Specs not yet fully released.
600-650HP
Uses more carbon fibre and will be lighter than the Z06.
So as you can see even a Z06 has more horsepower and a lot less weight than your precious GT-R.
The ZR1 is more than 700 pounds lighter and has 120-170 more HP.
Care to tell us what magical part the GT-R uses to make a heavier car with less power go faster?
Don't get me wrong, the GT-R is a nice car for sure, but the ZR1 Corvette like I already said will blow it's fucking doors completely off. No kidding. Knowledge is power.
