Impressive, all i can say. Finally they posted some numbers to support their arrogance, and here i was becoming sceptical about their claims... Papa vette took the Ring, props to GM for creating such a vehicle.
Now honestly i doubt the 7:26 record will stay there for long, these days everyone seem to be so desperate about the record breaking time at the Nurburgring and we have a bunch of respectable contenders including LF-A, NSX, V-Spec, top of the line DPK 911s, the last Zonda rendition may take a try as well. And i certainly think Chevy themselves can best that time within another couple of sunny day timeattack attempts with Magnussen at the wheel. So, who'll be the next Lord of the Ring? All i can say is it won't be a new Toyota Prius, other than that i'm uncertain...
