You can start by heading to the magazine scans section, you will find evo's guide which already lists some times.. sadly it is a pretty complicated matter.. racing cars, road cars, road cars but with racing slicks, official timing, privately recorded times... it's not as straightforward as it seems

It should be like the TopGear lap times. But even those have diferent weather conditions..... nothing is perfect!

Radical's new SR3 Turbo, driven by touring car ace, Phil Bennett, shattered the Nordschleife lap record of 7:32, by a massive 13 seconds. The new record was made all the more impressive by the fact that the all-new 1500 turbo-engined car had only covered a small number of development miles at Lotus' Hethel test circuit, and the record was achieved during it's first and only flying lap of the awesome 14-mile German circuit.

Phil Abbott, Radical co-founder and the inspiration behind the SR3 Turbo was jubilant. "Last year we came to the Nordschliefe, and recorded a 7:42 with a standard 1500 SR3. This year we were allowed only one flying lap, and we did an amazing 7:19. With a change in gearing, and time to dial the car in, we can go even faster!"

this is just some info from the Radical site.

i think that this is way cool too, gsxr 1300 top end x 2 , with a custom
crank and cases to make a V8 at over 360 bhp
