Just saw this, 2:41 is scarcely credible. Anything under 2:45 is basically the VIR equivalent of a sub-7 minute Nordschleife lap.

That is just insane. I believe one of the car mags ran a 2:43 in a 918.

Will be interesting to see for sure. I have seen videos of the Hellcat Challenger walking the Z07 not to mention the Viper beating it. So not sure how the car beat the 918 Spyder unless the Porsche needed the driver mod.

The C7/Z06 and the Vipers are track monsters and can be totally competitive against Porsches alike. Hellcat is a beast on a straight line, period.
