Nice time.....excellent achievement for the appliance-car brand...one butt-ugly car.

It's about time it does something besides being incredibly expensive for what you get.

That list is incorrect. The 7:19 was a 2012 ZR1. Its previous best was 7:26, though there were unconfirmed reports of a 7:22

lil_chef · 09-09-2011, 09:57 PM

the 7:22 was from a Jan Magnussen so they didn't count it. there was an unspoken agreement that the times couldn't be set by a professional driver.... apparently nissan and Lexus didn't get that memo.

I'd love to see GM give Cadillac the green light to build a Mid-Rear supercar all their own. Carbon Fiber frame, aluminum panels, etc....all the goodies....just because.

They've got the experience and resources to demolish the best out there.
