2009 Corvette ZR1rounds the 'Ring' in 7:26.40
General Motors development engineer Jim Mero drove a stock ZR1 around the Nürburgring in a time of 7:26.4. That's faster than the 7:29 lap set by the Nissan GT-R.
GM indicates the car was bone stock with the exception of the communications and safety equipment. The tires were production Michelin Pilot Sport 2’s. These tires have been developed specifically for the ZR1 and will have impressive wet traction and wear (tread wear rating = 220), in addition to excellent dry road holding. Chassis alignment and vehicle height were set to factory specs. Likewise, the engine calibrations were absolutely stock, emissions compliant and the car ran on pump (not racing) fuel. The vehicle was exactly like the cars that will be built in Bowling Green, Kentucky and sold around the world later this summer.
GM is going to release an in-car video of the lap, but to give you a taste of speed here is the slightly slower Nissan GT-R.

Danica Finally Gets Her First Win
Danica Patrick makes history as she becomes the first woman to win an Indy Car Race. Danica Patrick silenced her critics in style Sunday as she took the lead with three laps to go in the Japan 300 and crossed the finish line ahead of pole sitter Helio Castroneves. Team owner Michael Andretti stated it wasn't a matter of if she would win, but when she would win. Danica is now looking for her second win. After a visit to the Sprint Cup race at Phoenix International Raceway rumors started flying weather Danica would make a jump to Nascar. She looked at a possible jump into Nascar in 2006 when her contract was ending. Her current contract will keep her active until 2010. "Yes, I'm knee deep in Indy car," she said. "But when your contract time comes, anyone would be foolish not to explore options that are relevant. You have to go where you feel you have the best chance to win and the most opportunities and where you feel your heart is."

The Nissan GT-R can now lay claim to being one of the fastest production cars in the world after GT-R chief test driver Tochio Suzuki completed the famous Nurburgring circuit in Germany in just 7 minutes 29 seconds. According to our records, this puts the GT-R in second place for fastest laps by unmodified production cars just behind the Pagani Zonda F which posted a time of 7 minutes and 27 seconds last November. The time completely destroys the GT-R's previous best lap of 7 minutes 38 seconds achieved last year in slightly damp conditions.
Nissan makes a powerful attempt to bring a true supercar to the masses. While the price may still be high for many, it is an extremely affordable alternative to the 150K - 1M supercar territory. The 2009 Nissan GT-R is powered by a 3.8 Liter twin turbo V6. Horsepower, how about 480 in this tight little Package with 430 ft/lbs of torque. more
