This car is wild!

Umm not even close. The 2012 z06/z07 ran it in 7:22. Still an awesome time for the ZL1, but lets be real here.

If they were going for "shock and awe" it worked! Congrats to GM

Some of those times are not really representative IIRC. Now, the 7:24 was on PS2s, but the newest times, including Z06, are on the Sport Cup Michelins. Now - don't get me wrong. I'm not taking anything away from this REMARKABLE achievement (still assuming it's true

), but I'm sure there are better times for the GT. I haven't noticed, and don't have the time and interest in looking, because I know what are good times, and this is a GREAT time for this kind of car.

I seriously hope the OP that said this was to soften the blow of the price isn't correct, however, I do think ZL1 will be an outstanding value, regardless of what it ends up costing. I better start playing the Lotto!!!

CONGRATS' GM AND KEEP THE INFORMATION GOING!!! please
