Agreed. We have a fair amount of disagreement in this file in regard to "official" Nurburgring times, with most adhering to the Sportauto bible.

Me? I want to see what the car is really capable of doing, so 7:59s for Walther Rohrl (997S) and Dave Hill (Z51 Vette) are the official times for me. "What the car is capable of" times, that is.

Sportauto times are also valuable, but on-site variables mean that their posted times are variable, as well. Their 8:05 in a 997S is getting pretty close, but the 8:15 in a Vette is almost silly.
