I wonder when this took place because I was at the Nissan shop at the Nurburgring yesterday and they didnt say anything about this. And all the different shops there at the Ring love to gloat about their lap times, so I wonder why no one said anything. They also had an older Spec-V R35 in their showroom instead of this new one.
And there was no way in hell that lap run was this weekend, there was fog over the whole course with 10ft of visibility yesterday and a sanctioned race on Saturday. Maybe it was thursday or friday... |

For those that disbelieved the original 7:26.4 time this new one will be regarded as the same Nissan BS. I wonder will we see a repeat of Porsche getting their own example and stating that they didn't getting close to this time of 7:20 either.
popcorn time indeed. |

Frankly I think it's up to the individual to decide which is right and wrong either way Nissan have achieved what they set out to do, which was give the GTR as much media attention at possible since it's launch and reaffirm it's cult status which it had, in spades. |

This is impressive for a car with no aesthetic appeal, racing lineage or history. Good job Nissan.

Yeah. Now if only Nissan could get a GT2 or ALMS entry then we could really get a useful discussion going.

Here's the thread at 6Speed. The OP is, of course, a GTR owner and had the balls to post it in the 996 Turbo / GT2 section:

I'd still save up for a slower GT3 instead. Just sayin'.
