The A110 R lap time seems remarkably slow compared to other tracks.

The M5/M6 BMWs of the time were hilariously underrated (at least the ones that were sent to the press). I ...

200+ hp in combination with the reworked aero could for sure amount to 11 seconds. I wouldn't count on much ...

Jethro Bovingdon from Top Gear said it bridges the gap between 849 and F80 in terms of feeling and excitement. ...

To get back to topic: All the cars tested so far have the ZTK-aero-package with a massive wing, splitter and ...

11° C is already quite cold for tire grip. It's okay if it was a warm day before, the sun ...

I would be really surprised if that was the case. After the second GTD-attempt it was at first unlikely that ...

I can't really imagine that Ford pours so much money into a lap time-attempt that would essentially be meaningless if ...

24 seems pretty okaish IMO

@ Corvolet3: I actually don't know how much the Black Series will share with the common new AMG GT. There's ...

I agree with SgtKanyo though. So somebody could put a production car on race slicks and per fastestlaps rules the ...

Very hard to tell. At least in the past Shelby American Inc. (not to be confused with Ford-engineered products that ...

I think Porsches MR-packages shouldn't count as "stock" either as the cars aren't born with them but have to be ...

No, in most markets it was not Nismo that installed the N-Attack-package. In the USA it was the tuner STILLEN ...

Haha if quality and squeakyness is a factor we would have to strip many supercars of that status, especially older ...

Have my doubts with this one given the results from magazine tests.

Difficult debate in my eyes. What defines a supercar? Performance? If the base model is already "special" enough? "Exotic-factor"? Engine-location? ...

I'd argue you can put Aston at the bottom. At least a Cadillac could finish the race LOL

Only few are tracktoy-specials of carbon-tub supercars on equal tires though. It's not an issue if it's just an MC20, ...

I meant that a sub-7:15 on the Ring would still be a disappointment in a way.

Let's face it, ending up being much slower than a cheaper 992 GT3 despite the carbon tub and way more ...

The Dark Horse wasn't designed for a specific track in mind but as it brakes and corners especially well in ...

The dry weight claim from Maserati is 1'365 Kg as per Maserati.com: https://www.maserati.com/content/dam/maserati/international/Brochures/my25/gt2-stradale/GT2-stradale-Digital-Catalogue-EN.pdf 1'475 Kg is DIN-weight with fluids. ...

The problem is that the MC20 GT2 Stradale has about the same weight (despite the carbon tub vs. the aluminium ...

That is definitely the case!

It's also awfully close to an M2 CS that has 100 hp more...

No I think the dry weight quote was even lower (1'365 Kg). No matter what it is, why would you ...

Maseratis claimed weight (DIN): 1'475 Kg Actual weight: 1'672 Kg WTF?

Doesn't the GT2 come with Cup 2 R-tires though? In my eyes it's crazy that this car with its price ...

Don't forget this is a ZTK-car on Cup R-tires, which - strangely - are apparently worse for drag racing. GM ...

Which lap times are you referring to? Even the F82 M4 has a 1:37.22, the Mk IV Mustang GT did ...

Which still is far away from what this car should be able to do. I mean it's a mere 1.5 ...

On that very track a Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing did a 2:49.4 min. on Michelin PS4S and a 2:47.9 & 2:48.4 ...

It is.

That's always tricky to find out for Lightning Lap-times. But in general they have multiple drivers and do many laps ...

It's possible but sometimes there's less in it than one might think. Not every car gains loads of time with ...

The difference between a Mercedes GT63 S on Michelin PS5S and a GT63 Pro on Cup 2 R is 3.4 ...

2026-lap times of R&T PCOTY were all extremely slow. Can only compare them among each other.

Driver appears to be Wyatt Foster (amateur race car driver) according to Youtube-comments placed under the C&D-video:  

Well, Car & Driver ranks cars in Lightning Lap in price brackets as the most important denominator, which in itself ...

Not my point, I only meant that it shouldn't be added to the base-Temerario page only because OP said it ...

I would expect 2-3 seconds improvement with Cup 2 R.

That looks very much like a Alleggerita Package-car...

Only you would cheer the fact that Ferrari obviously overcharges the customers for its products. No wonder they cost so ...

Saying "price means nothing" is an utter dumb statement. Car & Driver agrees, putting cars into cost categories: "We group ...

All these years I'm on this page without noticing that feature... LOL thanks!

Yeah it has relatively tame tires but what an embarassment if you compare this against the other Hyper-EV-sedans.
