Not during Xmas season you didn't. that would be more like 26:58.

Top gear said something about a zonda (complete with fire spitting from the exhaust tips) and a Ferrari under 7. Gt2rs was 7:18

You can´t compare it with the GT2RS..
The Porsche Its a road car on semi R-tires.. The Ferrari is a non street legal racecar on slicks...

Try to find a street legal Ferrari close to or with a record time on the N-Ring.. I haven´t found one..

Actually I have never meet a fast Ferrari on any track.. First time I meet some 430 Scuderias on the track I suggested some of them would be fast, but they wasn´t...

I hope someone will prove me wrong in the near future otherwise I will loose faith in Ferrari street car engineering! ;-)

It was the next GT-R... Rumor says it was on slicks, though.

bahhh, Veyron...

The Radical SR8 first went under 7 mins a couple of years back (6:55). It is fully road-legal and drove to the 'ring from England, lapped and then drove back on the same road tyres, as Radical wanted to make a point. That said it could in no way be described as a practical road car.

The 599XX is not in any way a road-car or on road tyres, just a shameless attempt by Ferrari for PR. The best Porsche for comparison would be a GT3 Supercup.

That's what I'm sayin'... It was carrying two kids in car seats at the time, with a passenger (while watching a movie).

(sidenote: has anybody's phone rang on bluetooth while on track? If so, did you answer it?)
