The results &#8211; which aren&#8217;t too surprising &#8211; had just over two thirds of you rooting and tooting for Godzilla. And that&#8217;s all fine. However, someone pointed out that the contest should have been between Godzilla and the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/09\/08\/first-drive-2010-shelby-super-snake-as-good-as-a-ford-mustang-g\/\">new Shelby Super Snake<\/a>. Well guess what?<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, <em>Motor Trend<\/em> has totally obliged you. In this video, the 412-horsepower and 393 pound-feet of torque (at the wheels, people, at the wheels) Nissan GT-R takes on the 635 hp and 581 lb-ft of torque Shelby GT500 Super Snake do the quarter-mile. The results? We&#8217;re going to make you jump to find out, but we aren&#8217;t surprised. At all. But then again, we&#8217;ve driven both cars (in fact, this appears to be the exact <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/07\/27\/review-2010-nissan-gt-r-does-godzilla-have-a-soul\/\">2010 GT-R we drove<\/a>). We will however say hats off to our buddy Ed Loh at MT for making such a fun video.
