Viper SRT ACR: The American Champion

The time has come: the ultimate battle to decide the fate of the world’s greatest supercars.

991 GT2RS: The World Champion

Seven world-beating driving machines from seven iconic manufacturers .

Seven legendary racing circuits where fighting transpires .

488 Pista: The War Stallion

Seven heats, running seven laps per heat, to test the talents of man and machine.

FORDGT: The American Prizefighter

At first a full grid, then running side-by-side and in groups of three, along with the most rigorous automotive test ever desired.

720S: The Swift Hurricane

As the points rise, so shall the tension. Talent and tech alone won’t be enough if you lose out in the race to the top.

Aventador SVJ: The Bladed Bull

Now, then. Shall we begin?

Whatever , I can entertain myself. I got a crew and enough fear of YouTube to know that if I do this special, I better nail everything down pat.

488 Pista is the correct answer

So I think you should do the best of each country, then do a worlds best super car (all $400K or less).

USA

Even though overall the ZR1 is the fastest around most of the tracks and I personally love the new one. I think the Viper ACR is the best bet. Its a full 4 seconds faster at Laguna Seca. .. I feel the full potential of the ACR still has not been found yet.

Japan

Even though its more than a decade old the answer is still Godzilla.

UK

Obvious McLaren 720S

German

Porsche 911 GT2 RS. The Car to beat.

Italy

This is particularly hard. I am not sure we can include the SVJ. It has a half a mill price tag and the most expensive car previously on the list is $ 300K. So I would keep the 488 GTB. The Pista is good but there are barely any numbers on it

The R35 is one tier lower, sitting i n the welterweight class with the R8 and Huracan. So far the current lineup is enough, unless Mercedes comes out with the AMG-GT Black Series and Aston Martin makes a super-fied DBS SL.

So then NSX for Japan? Or where would that line up ? It has $200k price tag with the correct brake package and was aimed at the 458.

Aston I dont think will ever touch McLa re n nor do they want to. Its not how they are aimed. And the GT Black is coming but with that lap time at Nur , I dont think it can touch the 911 GT2

The welterweights are NSX, 570, R8, R35, 911 Turbo and base GT3 (hold that thought) , I think the old F-type SVR was tiered here, base Huracan and AMG-GT, C7 Z06, Evora, GT350R. I think the only performance versions in the running are the NISMO, AMG-GT R, Performante, 600LT, GT3RS/Turbo, and track-special Exige/Evora, which are some slim pickings for a big test.

If we go by manual/purity then it’s even less: wing-less GT3, C7GS, Evora 400, GT350.
