ZR1 Nurburgring Official 7:26.4 Record Corvette Run

You've got to have some serious balls to drive like that on that track.

I did. Sold it before I left Europe.

But what kind of tires were they using? I'm sure the GT-R folks are gonna want to know...

Hoosier A6's, American made of course ;)

Dang that means Jeff Schaadt would've run a 7:26.2 in it.

Not to be confused with the cinematic stylings of one Vicky Vette. ::BaHump::

Stock, according to this.

Man, that is some amazing stuff. I look forward to seeing similar videos of Sammmy driving his car. ;)


It's even more amazing when you consider how docile the car is on the street.

Road & Track has Jan Magnussen running the fastest ZR1 lap at 7:22.4. There is a huge Nurburgring story in the latest issue if anyone is interested. It includes a guide to a lap of the Ring with the ZR1.

Nice driving, I wonder if he had the traction control on?
