Yup radical sr8 holds the production record, i believe some lm porsche holds the overall record

Yup stefan bellof 6.11 porsche 956

Nordschleife fastest lap times - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Im surprised no one has put an f1 car or faster down it

YouTube - Stefan Bellof Nordschleife in 6:11

It's a bit bumpy for an F1 car isn't it?

yes nick heidfeld took the bmw F1 car around it but it was a promo day and couldnt push it any due to the track being so bumpy and F1 car suspension being so highly tuned

Unfortunately Stefan Beloff died at Spa a couple of years later. 6' 11" is an unbelievably quick time and Id be surprised to see it bettered. Beloff also holds the official lap record at 6'25".

Ive never seen that clip before. 6'11" is even more amazing when you realise that he was held up by Keke Rosberg and numerous slower cars from other classes!

Well unoficially nick heidfeld f1 bmw recorded a 5.57 but i think they left it go in respect of beloff

On 28 April 2007, Nick Heidfeld drove a BMW Sauber F1.06 Formula One car around the Nordschleife, on a BMW publicity day. Although the official lap time released by BMW Sauber was declared to be 8:34, Road & Track magazine reported that sources at the track had timed Heidfeld's lap to be a 5:57 or 5:58, breaking the track's six-minute barrier for the first time in history.[1]

I dont think that it does, not thats freely available anyway. Graham Bell's car was fitted with a massive camera throughout qualifying (and throughout the whole season) and the footage can still be seen on a DVD called 'In-Car 956'.
