A couple of notes....

The Nordschleife is a 12.9mi long course. On short track like we have in the US, any car within a second of each other is considered comparable in performance. Those tracks are usually something between 2.5 and 3 miles long. SO.....the Nurburgring Nordschleife course is approximately 3 of those laps in one....Very arduous. It also means that the time differences need to be scaled up.

Anything on that track within 3.5 seconds of each other is of comparable performance.

Here are some historical times to chew on.


7:12.13 - 2010 Dodge Viper ACR
7:19.63 - 2012 Chevy Corvette ZR1(sport Cup)
7:22.68 - 2012 Chevy Corvette Z06
7:24.44 - 2008 Pagani Zonda F
7:25.21 - 2010 Ferarri Enzo
7:26.40 - 2009 Chevy Corvette ZR1 (stock tires)
7:28.00 - 2016 Lamborghini Huracán
7:29.60 - 2017 Chevy Camaro ZL1
7:32.00 - Porsche 911 GT2
7:32.92 - Ferarri 458 Italia
7:33.33 - 2010 Porsche 911 GT3 RS
7:33.55 - 2008 Koenigsegg CCX
7:35.00 - 2015 McLaren 650S Spider
7:35.00 - Mercedes AMG GT S
7:37.40 - 2014 Chevy Camaro Z/28
7:80.00 - Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggara
7:38.00 - 2010 Lexus LFA
7:40.00 - 2005 Bugatti Veyron 16.4
7:41.27 - 2012 Chevy Camaro ZL1


Also worth noting...the Corvette ZR1 hit a top speed of 178 on the back straight of the 'Ring. The Z/28 hit 160, and the last-gen ZL1 hit 168......The new ZL1 reached 181.

Pretty good but the bar will be raised now and the competition is now buying ZL1's for R&D.
Just wait until the next gen Corvette hits the track.

The competitions' chassis game is just plain lacking compared to the alpha platform not to mention the mag ride as well.

I thought it hit 198? maybe I'm wrong and thinking of another high speed run.

you left out the M4 GTS
7:27.88

and all the GTR times?

I don't know if its that impressive , i mean last gen corvettes far smoke it? , they didn't run c7 z51 , or z06?

I think I expected better times, and I actually think the 1LE would out do it because it can use all of its power.

If it even came close we'll never see the vid or the time.

Watching the tach, it look to me that he is using all the ZL1 power.
