Yes, this example of GT2 seems little bit slow but, it is full specs car.
One other thing-some European magazine already measured JDM GT-R on the Ring... It is unofficial since that car can not be purchased officially in Europe yet...
Time? Fastest 7.47min with Dunlops... They did THREE runs with two different drivers... With that example of GT-R 7.29min were totally impossible...
So the video showing the 7.29 time is doctored? Given that Europeans can only do the Ring in the high 7.40's is it possible for Nissan to the modify the GT-R so heavily that it would be able to do the Ring 20sec.faster?
I think not. What I believe is there is a cultural hubris at work here. The Ring has been owned by European particularly German car manufacturers and to have a company outside of Europe turn the time considerable faster is not acceptable. Thus, the innuendo's and carping about the legitimacy of the GT-R.
Europeans get over it. You were beaten at your own game.
