"The result of Honda's NSX-R effort was a vehicle that could challenge the latest sports car models on the track, despite having a base design that was more than 15 years old. For example, noted Japanese race and test driver Motoharu Kurosawa piloted a 2003 NSX-R around the legendary Nurburgring road course in 7:56, a time equal to a Ferrari F360 Challenge Stradale.[citation needed] The NSX-R accomplished this feat despite being out-powered by the Ferrari by nearly 100 bhp (75 kW) and weighing almost 100 kg (220 lb) more than the track-oriented Ferrari (at 1180kg)."


for that time, that was impressive.
See, now THIS is the kind of comparison you want to make when talking about the performance of a car. 100 less hp, and weighed more.....yet beat it around The Ring? Now THAT is impressive!!!

And not to shit on this time or anything, but just for those who don't think a Corvette is "all that," the C5 Z06 did The Ring at 7:56 as well, weighing 300lbs more.
