Default Road & Track crowns Lp560-4 King over GT-R, GT2,R8, ACR, ZO6, DBS, M3, MR and S 240

Road and Track magazine has crowned the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 the best sports car in America.

No judging on price, comfort, styling, legroom, color, or cupholders. Just speed. Four tracks an oval, autocross, Streets of Willow and Willow Springs raceway.

1 Lamborghini Gallardo lp560-4
2 Dodge Viper SRT10 ACR
3 Nissan GT-R
4 Porshe 911 GT2
5 Audi R8
6 Chevrolet Corvette Z06
7 Aston Martin DBS
8 BMW M3 Coupe
9 Mitsuishi Lancer Evolution MR
10 Lotus EXige S240

Porsche won the oval course.
Viper won the Willow Springs Raceway.
Lamborghini won the Streets of Willow.
Viper won the Autocross.

Yes Viper won half but Lamborghini placed high enough in all the races to win overall points. Viper lost by .18 point out of 100.

No Ferrari was included so, after all this effort, it really does not count.

It does however seem to give some credibility to the GT-R, and it does confirm how far the ZO6 has fallen. Considering the cost of the 911GT2, one wonders what Porsche is thinking right now, as this is their fastest current production car.
