Apparantly the blue corvette that people have been taking pics of was NOT the Blue Devil corvette. Just the regular production Z06 and it did it in an official 7:43 not 7:40 as rumored on the net.

From Dave's mouth to my note pad:

After a long discussion on all the various times of different (Non-Corvette) cars around the ring, using 8:00 as the benchmark for "world class" performance Dave announced:

A 2005 C6 turned the 'Ring in 7:59! (yes 7:59, NOT 7:56!!)

A 2004 C5 ZO6 did it in the already known 7:56

and the 2006 ZO6, driven by Jan Magnusson drove it in........

7:43

Dave said this time was already available on the net so it was not part of the August embargo.

Also it was NOT the Blue Devil.

Let the Bench Racing begin!

It has 300 fewer hp, is 240kg heavier, yet it's only four seconds slower than the CCR? That's a pretty amazing achievement! :woot:
 
I wanna know how quick a stock Viper SRT-10 can get around...
 
Very cool :thumbup:
 
That's a pretty nice looking car and an even nicer looking time!
 
i always thought american cars couldnt go around corners :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :burnrubber:
 
That corvette pic in the leading post is so awesome, 3 wheels off the ground!!! I mean, come on, that is so fast!!!
 
Carrera GT is pretty high up there, 7:28. Enzo probably would beat the Carrera if someone had the balls to actually take it to the ring, lol.
