So what kind of lap times does a stock Carrera GT/Ferrari Enzo etc put down at well known tracks? Maybe sears point-laguna etc? I just wonder how well prepped weekend racers compare to these top dollar exotics?

 

I **believe** that Randy Pobst driving a CGT with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tires, but otherwise stock, put down a 2:02/2:01 type time on an empty track on the full course at VIR. The lap was set during a 'charity ride' that someone had won in an auction. The track was closed for a few laps and Randy gave the winning bidder a 'hell ride.'

2:00 at VIR is pretty similar to well driven GT3 Cup car, I believe. I seem to recall that the Grand AM Rolex GT cars are right around 2:00/1:59 mark in qualifying.

All of this is from my somewhat foggy memory.

yea


i also herd that randy did a 2:01 at VIR


with those tires... ide say its def possible.. and prob has some more speed in it... a couple secs.. i dont think randy was going 110% in someone elts 500k car

 

I imagine, if it was fully developed, you would have a winning ALMS GT1 car.

 

Unfortunately, as Porsche discovered, its not possible to run carbon tubs in GT1. The GT1 Aston Martin is actually running a Lotus chassis....
