ZR1 Nurburgring Official 7:26.4 Record Corvette Lap!!
With development engineer Jim Mero behind the wheel, the ZR1 paced the Nürburgring in a time of 7:26.4. The engine rpm and the vehicle speed are the actual data taken during this lap. The elapsed time was measured electronically and confirmed with two hand-held stopwatches. The video is continuous and unedited. Watch and listen as the ZR1 tackles the twists and turns of “the Ring” and sets one of the fastest times ever clocked for a production car. Distributed by Tubemogul.

absolute beautiful driving with that monster, balls out, really show
justy2714absolute beautiful driving with that monster, balls out, really show the passion for motorsport that u can do that going as hard as u can literally on the edge
, i salute this guy and any driver who takes a very high power auto on this track like this, magnifique
.... and for the "enzo etc" clearly tell u dont
justy2714…. and for the “enzo etc” clearly tell u dont have any real experience with cars.. and u go by whats “written” , its the character of a car that matters the most, and its preference on what kind of handling u like, each manufacturer / nationality all have distinct characteristics of power/handling, stats dont always matter, all cars have pros n cons, and all cars r beautiful in their own ways… please respect.
i will agree that the zr1s door panels arent shit
venomviper32i will agree that the zr1s door panels arent shit lol but it wont take the high speed kinks like an enzo or accelerate faster at the speed youre taking them (130-140). the enzos aerodynamics are much more advanced, thats why its top speed is over 10 mph higher. at low speed manuveurs like the slalom and skidpad it will get beaten but its younger sister (the mc12) has noticeably more grip. still not bad this low priced vette is comparable to old road going million dollar racecars!
in case you didnt know numnuts the R35 gtr runs
dangreenwood123in case you didnt know numnuts the R35 gtr runs a 7:26
haha gtr runs 7.26 stick that up your fucking ass.
dangreenwood123haha gtr runs 7.26 stick that up your fucking ass. roflmao
“fine il give you that”
see why i insulted you, because even according to your own admission you dont know shit. Like i said your country has been immune from gtr’s for over 20years!!
Kid everyone with a brain and who logically can think
iXetsueiKid everyone with a brain and who logically can think knows that those times are faked. Even go to the GT-R owners board, even THEY acknowledge that the lap time was bullshit. The car they used was specially modified for the Ring. Horst von Saurma, who has driven literally hundreds of thousands of laps on the Nurburgring, could not even come close to the 7:29 or 7:26 claim with someone who lent him their GT-R. So is Nissan bullshitting? You can bet your short fat ass they are.
And I'd also like to point out again that there
iXetsueiAnd I’d also like to point out again that there is not a single handling or cornering statistic where the ZR1 does not win, and there is not a single track time where the ZR1 loses to the GT-R.
haha now your doing a back flip - do you
dangreenwood123haha now your doing a back flip - do you realise how silly that makes you look bud? So what did the “GTR OWNERS BOARD” say that was such defining evidence that Nissan had yet again pulled a swifty on the world motoring press (which they invited brains) that proved they had cheated!!
watch the video again dude seriously
gtrblog.c om/category/ nissannews/
LMFAO! You're in such denial. Dude anyone with a fucking
iXetsueiLMFAO! You’re in such denial. Dude anyone with a fucking brain knows Nissan cheated. The car was modified, and yes the invited press to WATCH, but no one had actually checked the car. And no, all of the owners I have seen on the board and know in real life think that Nissan pulled a bullshit.
And here’s good proof they cheated. Horst von Saurma who has driven hundreds of thousands of laps on the ring could only get 7:38 in a volunteer GT-R. PWNED!
OMG you are stupid, it was HVS first fucking time
dangreenwood123OMG you are stupid, it was HVS first fucking time in the car you retard. Of course he’s not going to compare with the development driver whose been driving it the whole time who raced the r92 Group C racecar with 1000bhp whilst at the same time the US was racing lunchboxes in circles.
Answer this first: what makes you think they didnt just cheat the 7:38 time as well?? They probably just cheated on that, the 7:29, the 7:27 and finally the 7:26 times - all of them you would say right?
i love it an american car takes the the record
tlbjbjbi love it an american car takes the the record on the best track in the world haha
put that in your italian pipe in smoke it.
i don't care if the gtr ran 7:00 flat in
tlbjbjbi don’t care if the gtr ran 7:00 flat in fact
id be happy if they did tie. the c6 did it with two wheel drive not a.w.d. so it don’t matter there two diffrent records here so
even if it beat the vette the c6 would still have it for .2wd 2door front engine cars.
Haha, the fake discussion is SINCE WAY BACK over and
Tys0nFawlayHaha, the fake discussion is SINCE WAY BACK over and the 7:26 is proven world wide. So you can stick your short fat ass up your short fat ass and acknowledge it as this decades probably best feat of engineering.
wow, that's simply awesome, what a car, and what a
iconic558wow, that’s simply awesome, what a car, and what a driver, I was crapping myself and I wasn’t even there!
…optimised barn door engineering, not a cambelt in sight, race it one day, service it next year, if you feel the need to!
the guy goes fucking 160
titandownthe guy goes fucking 160
i think he lost traction and lifted his hand up
titandowni think he lost traction and lifted his hand up at around 6:30

179 Top Speed Down The Last Straightaway No Way is
ddouglasinc179 Top Speed Down The Last Straightaway No Way is That Full Throttle. It Could Be Doing At least 195 or more… What I Want To See is the 2010 Model With A Pro Driver Behind The Wheel. With That Im Thinking About 7:24 to 7:22
So Hurry Up Gm Get Out ( Spring or Summer 2010 ) There And Post A More Badass Laptime.
You Guys Make The Fastest Sports Car In The World ( Sports Not Supercar ppl. )
No One Can Compare.
Well Only thing I Can Think of is The 458 italia But its Not Out Yet lol
ZR-1 is an awesome car not the best in the
moshinledgendfinch66ZR-1 is an awesome car not the best in the world by far but still awesome a improvement on the Z06 got a smaller engine with a supercharger given it way more power and torque soo all round improvement
statistics, whats written on paper isnt always best... its the
justy2714statistics, whats written on paper isnt always best… its the character that matters.. corvette is sexy in its own way, its american, living up to american car ways, something that most other american auto makers lack nowadays, and the gtr is magnificent in its own way also. ppl trying to be someone or something theyre not.. stop comparing and looking for “the best” coz sometimes the most simple things in life r the best.
@ddouglasinc You don't want to enter Antoniusbusch at 195 in
erickonphoenix@ddouglasinc You don’t want to enter Antoniusbusch at 195 in real life. The suspension will be off-weighted when as the track starts to fall away. 175 is probably the max speed the ZR1 should take that corner.
White knuckle ride or wat! who says american muscle cant
opawariWhite knuckle ride or wat! who says american muscle cant corner?
What I think is funny is how these morons want to
whiskerbiscuit1965What I think is funny is how these morons
want to tell me how a 450K cars is way better than the Amreican car. Any dumbshit could build a scary fast good driving car with that much money. This car costs 100K and will hand most 300K and up cars there ass. And do it on stock tires and pump gas no less.
what a lap, goes to show when America wants to
KJD123iwhat a lap, goes to show when America wants to build a great car they can!! GTR-V spec got 7:25 driven by Toshio Suzuki (I think) and it was an official lap.
