That isn't too surprising considering the Nissan and ZR1 are on high performance street tires while the ACR is on DOT race rubber. That's like comparing two bikes, one on pilot powers, the other on pilot power races. 4 seconds isn't exactly something to get worked up about under those conditions. In fact Dodge should be a little sheepish that it was only 4 seconds faster.

Why did they start the clock at the end of that little straight, and stop it at the beginning.
Looks like they are trying to cheat some seconds.

I think that that spot is the generally accepted start point vs when you actually leave the toll booths
