Why do you think Car and Driver does the Lightning Lap? To show what cars will do in the hands of a pro.

I just don't get people. I bet if this was the 918 or P1 or a GT-R, everyone would be drooling over this.

This has more grip than any street car. And ANY ZOMG! AWD! vehicle. There are people who do track their cars and they are not low joes that spit magazine claims or 'Ring times. They do what the car can do and push it. There are already a number of C7 Z06 owners prepping their cars for upcoming track events.

Another point, is the 'Ring suppose to be the BEST track in the world? So wouldn't those cars tested there be at the top of the list?

Interesting to read driver's comments about hitting a wall of air at 150mph. The aero on the car is very aggressive apparently. Explains a lot of two street racing videos. The same Hellcat it lost to on the street, the same day at the dragstrip the Z won heads up. Trap speeds were consistantly higher all day as well. Hellcat never trapped higher than 126mph.
