Default GM coughs up 7m43s time for C6 Z06...

I'll post something before the monkey brigade comes rolling though.

Dave Hill, Chief ENgineer (basically Mr Modern Corvette) for the Corvette program announced last night that the official time GM is making public for the C6 Z06 is 7m43s for a flying lap pf the Nurburgring.

In a bizarre turn about he also announced the C6 time, as being 7m59s - yet it was he whom is accredited with announcing that the C6 time was 7m56s... so there you have the C6 time, amazingly slowing down by 3s after a year.

Interestingly this "3s" movement is the same amount by which the reported time is slower, than the first leaked 7m40s

So - which is it? The car is slower, GM can't operated a stop watch, Dave Hill is getting senile and can't remember shit from a couple weeks ago
