To put things further in perspective on the other end, what is the best time they do during the VLN races? Say the Manthey cars?



Proper Racecars (GT3 RSR): around 8:30
Roadcar GT3: around 9:30

Mind you, this is for the 24.3 km long track (NoS + GP-circuit Sprinstrecke/short circuit).

Not sure how much time you have to subtract to arrive at the NoS-time for these cars.
Example from a buddy who drives a BMW 330i:
Full lap: 9:50
GP-circuit (Sprintstrecke): 1:50
NoS: 8:00

Of course the Sportauto lap is not a full NoS-lap (T13-gap may be worth 7 sec or so).

Also if you compare laptimes from previous years bear in mind that they improved the track (tarmac). Not sure what it exactly means in terms of laptimes but for example pole time for this year's 24h race was about 13 sec. faster compared to previous year. Guesstimate from experienced race drivers is about 7 sec. improvement for NoS with a potent road sportscar such as GT3. As you can see - all the laptimes on NoS are a kind of "moving target"
