Good point. One of the reasons I knew the 7:29 time (even for Manual) was BS...

At least the drivers seat is not the stock !
So the Press relese fact that "the car was in its standard trim" is not quite right ?

They put racing seats and harnesses in most cars for ring times. This is for safety.

Would love to see the same graph normalized for time (I.e. basically ring time vs. model)

Off course not. Once you have the RS you wil stay with RS !

I had the GT3 before, was great car but it will never be the RS

Excellent point. What is the typical variance in lap times between now and before it was repaved?

Interesting to consider: the Nissan GT-R was a 2009 model year.

Pre GT-R: 1.6 seconds per year.
Post GT-R? 3.4 seconds per year...

Maybe competition really does improve the breed.

It looks like he's driving in manual mode (at least lots of manual upshifts), can't clearly see the left hand so hard to tell.

Remember peak power is 8,250 rpm like the .1 cars.
