Actually the McLaren MP4-12C did a time of 1:16.2, but part of that has to do with the fact that it was designed/tested at the Top Gear test track.

z's weight distribution is like 55/45 , of course it needs bigger front tires....

For some reason that's not on the Top Gear's website...

Is it because its not for sale yet?

BBC - Top Gear - Power Laps

Also, for some weird reason the Bugatti Veyron SS is higher on the list the the Lambo even though the lambo did it quicker

Not shown in first place is the Prius. A commanding lead was established early due to superior 0-6 mph times.

Didn't count, though, because the prius comes on harder tires stock.
