He doesn't even complete the lap. What's the point of being so precise if you start the timer at the pit lane exit and stop it before the uphill section leading into turn one... or is that what they do for all the laptimes?

there was a prototype that was spotted around The Ring with alot of extra body work compared to the GT-R Black Mask prototype.

Apparently that's the standard timing procedure
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nordschleife_fastest_lap_times

During the industry testing sessions in which de:Sport auto records its "Supertest", the track can not be traveled at full speed past "Trib?ne 13" (T13, grandstand 13) in order to allow safe access from the old exit/entrance there. Thus, Sportauto Supertests cover only about 20.6 km, which in average yields a 7 s shorter lap time compared to a full lap.

according to wiki the full lap is 20.8, the lap without the pit straight is 20.6. the magazine says 20.6 and the start and end points don't coincide. everything is consistent.

apart from that the recent zonda f record was also set on the 20.6 track if you read the press releases.
 
God damn thats fast. So where do I sign up for mine?

Thats the thing, they SAID it did 7min59secs. Apparently AN R33 GT-R did 7min59secs. But it was a long way from stock.
