This is cool for the '10 models. Now a 370Z vs an '11 GT might be a problem.

this would be fun to see, but around the twisties come on, live with in your means...straight line thats all. stock for stock right>?? So no little track pack help for the boatGT. Cuase if thats the case put the Nismo against the track packed gt. Either way the 370z will own. LoL when I go the the track I see 350z's man handle stangs...and now you want to put them up against the bigger brother..LOL

as close to stock as possible? Tire and brake upgrades are fine then I assume? Shelby gt just comes with suspension upgrades from the factory? Its still a gt. You might want to get more specific about what "close to stock means." There are a lot of options on mustangs including gears, dampers, swaybars. I'm sure my car wouldn't count as close to stock to you but then again i already know what my stang does to Zs on the road course.

And if you want to talk nismo then lets talk fr500c.

Motor Trend did an issue on the GT, 370Z and another car comparison test. The 370Z beat the Mustang in the 1/4 mile.
