When 4-door stock Cadillacs are in the 7’s, you knew it was a matter of time…

Yeah, This definitely isn’t a regular production car, and who knows what tires it was running on, and what they did to the car before the lap.

It is a beautiful car though.

look at it this way, anything in the 8:30 area is very respectable, and this is doing it in 7 flat.  
= BONER

however, i could see the zonda R beating that.

lol stock 240s are slow as hell… hell my modded 240 (still with a ka) beats s2000s/wrx on track… but with a really good driver and modded s2000/wrx ill lag or be seriously challenged… our cars are not to be compared to lol

some of these cars are just plain and simply years ahead with technology its sad but true :-/… and on top of that they do it comfortably lol like cmon lol.

However with enough money spent… any car can go fast…

Regardless its an epic achievment for ferrari imo… sure its caged/track car ready (cmon… braces on windshield) but… still epic 🙂

And honestly cmon give ferrari a hand here, cutting some 20-30 seconds of a track… (say vette zr1, gtr, viper acr)

I got a 240 because it was cheap and i could go fast cheap… however i wana go really fast and its no longer cheap lol… so something like an fd rx7 would have made more sense if i had money but alas.

So honestly for a race team with all the r&d 2 million is probably a bargain 😛

I would love to some day have the opportunity to take my car to the nurburgring 🙂 Dreaming but hey!
