Track Times

http://www.fastestlaps.com/track2.html.

You can check how well your favourite car stacks up on various tracks. This one is for the Nurburgring. The R32 GTR posted a 8:28, the 350z is even faster. Being that the Audi RS4 and the New GTR are similar in concept i am giving the New GTR (base) a 7:50 to 8:00 to do the ring.

The real shocker here is the Z06 10TH FRICKING PLACE. All the other cars in the top 10 cost well over a 100K the Z06 is the only one under (USD). That car just blows me away with the performance per dollar.

S14: 9:35
350z: 8:26

Are these factory stock cars?

If the Skylines times are from 1989 then they would be much faster today with improved tire technology.

Why when I look at that list does it say:

R32 GT-R = 8:22.38

350z = 8:26

??

“This is the only production car in the world ever to have lapped the fearsom Nürburgring in Germany in less than 8 minutes”
-Jeremy Clarkson on the GTR

Best handling car of the 90s.

“The professional drivers won’t see sense. The skyline is the fastest car here, sort it all out for you, but they say its dull”.

Funny, the video says best handling car from the 90s but they rule out the best handling car because its too good…

I really doubt a 350Z would keep up to a GTR on a fast road course, thats what the GTR was made for. What bugs me is that Nissan basically sold a de-tuned group A car which is capable of so much more than the factory power output. The stock skylines are damn impressive, but a moderatly tuned GTR is in another league.

there are two entries for the gtr. I am guessing one is the regular gtr and the other is v spec.
