I'm going based off the laptimes on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nordsch...test_lap_times

Thread moved.

Lap time looks reasonable, but that hardly came from a reliable source.

As said earlier, let's wait and see. The odd content spoiler is one thing as it gives us all something to look forward to and speculate about, but specifics like this really could ruin it for people.

It's like Christmas when I was a kid. I can still to this day tell if a present is a box of Lego because nothing in the world sounds like Lego when you shake the box - it's one thing to know there is Lego under the tree, but the thrill is in unwrapping the present on Christmas morning and finding out what kind of Lego is in there. Or is that just me........?

I said that because it running the same exact time as the Zonda F just seems a bit too neat.

Until somebody can provide me with evidence that all of those other cars were run as hard as the GT-R was at the Nurburgring then i i wouldn't trust that.

Personally I'd quess 1:20.5

honestly i am thinking of 1:23-1:21 but not under 1:20.

It was probably done by the same guy who wrote that an Audi RS6 did a lap in 1:22.4...exact same time as a Corvette Z06.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go on Wikipedia and claim that the Corvette ZR1 lapped the track in 1:17.3...

That list is incomplete, and on top of that, the Carrera GTs time of 7:40 is wrong, 7:32 is the official Sport Auto Supertest time (source)
