sorry if you've already seen it, but its breath taking!!

ZR1 Nurburgring Official 7:26.4 Record Corvette Ru - Video


179mph on the final straight!!!!


Phil

 

Welcome back, Phil.

 

sorry, has it already been posted LOL

 

man that guys has some BIG nuts!!!!!!!

 

Hey no apology necessary, merely a leg pull. Duplicate posts made, days, weeks or months apart are still as important for those that missed it originally, or for the 4th time.

I believe it was here at the weekend though, and blóody good too.

 

Lol at the way he just pulls over at the end....imagine the heat in the brakes, gearbox, etc!!!!

 

interesting, the new gtr gives away 200bhp and 200kg and is only 2 seconds slower.

kinda shows that the z1 aint that quick int he grand scheme, like to see a tweeked gtr have a go, maybe the gtr nur spec (if they do one)

 

Nordschleife lap times - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 

I know which one I'd prefer out of the Corvette and the GTR too!

 

*Waits for the valid response from Davyboy*

 

i'd like to see sabine drive both round and see the lap times, different drivers don't (to me anyway) make a fair comparison

 

with an empty track!

 

Thats a stupid comment if ever i've heard one... take a look at the cars behind it.. veyron 7:40, Zonda F 7:27

 

Amazing that a car with 300kg more weight, 60bhp less, and less grippy tyres can go 3 secs faster than a Porsche 997 GT2.

Somehow I think you've already seen what a tweaked GTR can do

Happy to assist spoon

 

He shoots, he scores!

 

Don't forget the mass of electronics gizmos and AWD....

Anyhoo: https://www.scoobynet.com/non-scooby...vette-run.html

 

 

veyrons, good in a straight line, come to a corner and your fecked, at 2tonnes it doesn't handel that well.

and the zonda f, that was in the wet, and if you've ever been to the ring you'll realise what wet conditions do to it plus isn't confirmed.

 

Those wikipedia time lists are pretty meaningless, there are so many variables that its impossible to compare like with like.

 

i agree, but you have to use some sort of info lol

 

Well driven I thought.

Les

 

Thanks for that meaningful input. How many times have you been to the Ring yourself and how many laps have you done?

 

You sure the Zonda F was in the wet?

I'd expect it to be a lot slower if it was wet.

 

And this is meaningful input??

Anway, do you mean this year or in total? And what does that have to do with wikipedia times?

 

yup says it was in the wet, well semi wet conditions lol

kinda puts the covertte into context huh

 

in fact just noticed 3 other times have just gone up, the aerial atom, 30 seconds quicker lol

 

It's all a load of bollocks. Especially the Standard GTR time

 

We can argue about the times till blue in the face.

The take home message of this video is that, contrary to what conventional wisdom might have you believe, the USA can build a sports car that compete on the world's most demanding track with the best from Europe and the Far East!

Case closed!

infract infract infract!!!!!

pmsl


on a side note i thinkt he atom radical has room for inmprovement, watcht he vod and thers odd bits i think he could have pushed a tad harder, tenth here tenth there round a 6+ min track can equal alot of time off the lap

 

"A" sports car

Thats the important bit. Well, two if you include the S7
