I think you may have misread? Thats 7.2 mph, not seconds.
The GT-R ran an 11.8 in the 1/4, and they reported it to weigh 3800 pounds, which is pretty much what I've seen everywhere else, and had an overall lap time of 1:56.9
The Z06 ran the 1/4 in 11.7 and had an overall lap time of 2:02.2
The extra weight in both cars is 160 pounds, which is roughly the weight of a normal sized man... the driver.

Either way, I don't want to turn SW's thread into another Z06 vs. GT-R debate like every other automotive forum has. I def. look forward to seeing it on HRE wheels and some coilovers!
