Anyway, I can say for certain that the LFA has beaten the GT-R by 3 seconds at Goodwood circuit, but not on the same day, not same driver. Doubt you'll see much testing of that sort, what with the LFA being as scarce as it is.

Despite the different times and drivers, this represents a major ass-kicking delivered by the LFA, much more than the 'Ring example.
Around 3 seconds faster over 3.8 km at Goodwood.
Compared with around 5 seconds faster than the GT-R over 20.8 km at the 'Ring.
Actually when you look at the difference of only 5 seconds at the 'Ring makes the GT-R look pretty exceptional in my opinion. (Not even counting performance per dollar stuff.)
