Default Sport Auto: Corvette Z06 Nordschleife lap

The videos are on the right of the page:

If you click on the simbol that is on the right of the small "screen" another screen opens and the video becomes much bigger.

the big difference between the M3, and the M3 CSL.... 30-40 extra ponies, harsher suspension, semi-slicks, and 50 KG or so of weight... made for about 30 seconds on NS

the C6 SS is 300 less lbs/ 140 less KG, semi-slick tires, 150 more ponies, and NS specific suspension, Carbon brakes...

so, take that into account... and the already super-fast 7:42.9 / 7:49 lap time... :shock:

Or then you throw in the RUF CTR3 and whamo! You trump them all.

perhaps you know... but Ruf's are becoming less and less track demons... the Yellowbird was the epitome of a race car that was road legal... by the time Alois Ruf released the RT12, its a road car, that will do well on the track...

But of course. The majority of the cars are roadworthy cars with the advantage of being able to tear up the track as well. The CTR3 on the other hand I believe is something a whole lot different from anything else he has created something tuned on an F1 track...
