There's a section in that other Forum dedicated to Corvettes called "ask Tadge". In there he writes about taking the Z06 to the ring. He makes it pretty clear that getting a fast lap time is not why they are there. That they take the trip over there, and spend all that money, because the Ring is the best place to dial in suspension and handling. If they have time, and the right conditions, Mero will do a couple of hot laps, but that is not the purpose of the trip.

That said, these times are somewhat good for comparison between different cars. However, different drivers skew the numbers if anyone looks at these things like gospel truth. I mean, if I simply wanted the fastest Ring time possible, I would hire a pro race driver with a ton of time on that track.
