This is definitely a slick time. It's a qualifying lap time from a pro race.

I suspect this is the case too. Going 30s faster than the ZR1 on the 'ring is one thing but 26s faster on a 2 minute lap is another. Is suspect the SR3 RS time is also on slicks. They're fast but not that fast.

It takes 2:17 here on slicks in qualifying and the driver practically kills himself coming out of Eau Rouge.

car spec and stats are set on "Dunlop purpose-designed slick tyres." as the source says. laptime should be deleted

"isnt the Radical SR8LM a road legal car? faster lap times than GT1 series... just no way."

The Radical is much lighter and has as much as or even more downforce than a GT1 car. Of course it does not have as much power as a GT1, should be on the same level though...

Ok, i don't wont to go out off topic lafars. Just trying to make my point clear that how fast this lap time is, and that i really doubt about it.
About the videos, you can actually see how fake tha physics are in NFS.

i have both GT5 and the two shift games and i can tell you that it's way more exciting to drive in shift because you can "feel" the G-forces on the drivers head (and the sound experience is also much better in shift)

I do not have GTx, only the more unrealistic NFS Shift 2 where I did a 2:03 time in a tuned Gumpert at Spa in NFS. :lol:

lol Yeah, This time is faster then my fully track tuned GSX/R4 on slicks in GT5 lol

Other then the incar video, we don't know if that was on slicks or even a road legal model, but I don't know what to expect from this car, hard to guess with a car like this.

I just can't trust this lap times :/.
1st, Spa is mostly a high speed track, a disadvantag for this car against the ZR1 or 430SC, second,It can sound like a really silly argument, but i've done some Laptimes in Gran Turismo 5 with a GT500 car with Racing hard tires(really grippy tires), and have a reach a 2:17.8.
