2012 Corvette ZR-1 7:19.63 Nurburgring

Kyoshi71 · 06-10-2011, 09:14 AM

Pretty sick to lap the Nurburgring in 7:19.63 in a production car.

Later Nissan.

holy smokes when he hits 180 on the straight that was insane. I was very impressed

Such an awesome car. I've seen a few at Summit Raceway crushing everyone. They blow by most cars like they are standing still on the straights.

Some dope erased the Vette's ring time off Wikipedia. It was there this morning.

Grail05 · 06-10-2011, 11:56 AM

NICE

Kinda figured the nose of the car would be glowing hot due to atmospheric friction...

There's a lady in my apartment complex that drives a ZR1, we must become friends.

scheherazade · 06-10-2011, 01:26 PM

Very nice

I can't wait for [generally-obtainable] production cars to start breaking into the 6's.

for so many years it only has been only 1 US car that have been able to do this...

SCORE
US 1

OTHER CAR COMPANY.... 50 million times...

dont get me wrong.... it is a very nice car..

Erhan · 06-10-2011, 04:11 PM

Is this the normal ZR1 that is already in production? It is a very impressive time.

Is it me or is it the camera angle, but that driver looks very harsh on the car. Not smooth at all.

He was trying hes best to drive it in corners... LOL US are known for straight lines...

mact3333 · 06-10-2011, 04:36 PM

wow, have never seen anyone drive so aggressively in the Ring...that was a fast lap...taking some sweeping 120 mph turns one handed too.

PhillyNate · 06-10-2011, 06:29 PM

That is the very best America has to offer. The Corvette and the Mustang are the only American performance cars I would ever consider purchasing.

I don't think anyone ever denounced the ability of the US to build kick ass cars. The frustrating thing was knowing that they had the ability to build them but for the longest time wouldn't

GnokGnik · 06-10-2011, 08:18 PM

Very impressive, but to me the Viper ACR n-ring lap seemed much scarier... mostly because it seemed to be falling apart and because it seemed unstable.
