Do you really think so? On a demanding track like the 'Ring keeping your hands on the wheel at all times and not having the extra clutch work would significantly improve your lap time.

And without the TC/Stability aids, do you guys really think this driver would be able to do the same speeds?

If you claim the GT-R is different in this aspect, then you clearly are biased. Sure this car publicly has more power, but it is also heavy like the GT-R and without computer aids, any driver would end up in the trees or without rubber if they tried to go all out.
