Nordschleife exluding GP track 20.6 kms:
7:40* -- 161.217 km/h � Corvette Z06, 505 PS/ 1419.7 kg (estimated), Jan Magnusen (AutoBild 7/2005) (*mfr.),
7 minutes and 40 seconds. That's 1 second within the 808hp Koenigsegg CCR and 4 seconds within the 400k+ dollar Carrera GT. It beat the regular c6 by 16 seconds.
All that performance, and GM's still talking about toping it with a BD 
...as if the regular z06 wasn't wild enough.

Handling wise, atleast on paper, the F1 wasn't that impressive.

Slalom: 64.5 mph
Despite the power and the brute topspeed and acceleration, the z06 beating it is no real surprise with figures like that.

The price is high to your average Joe, but for what performance you get, and for not that much over a loaded C6 Z51, Its really not that bad of a price.
And if it really is that fast....MAN!!
