Lexus LFA - 2.55.1 Surprised.
Chevy Camaro ZL1 - 2.57.5 I figured it would trounce the GT500.
Merc C63 Black Series - 2.58.0 Total power slut. Figured.
Porsche 911 S - 2.58.9 Good on it! A great car.
Ford Shelby GT500 - 3.00.6 Yeah, all that extra power didn't improve things much. Suspensionfail, and more importantly, passenger-car tire sizing fail.
Chevy Camaro SS 1LE - 3.01.5 Wow! The suspension really made a difference!
Jaguar XKR-S - 3.02.1 No opinion.
Porsche Boxster S - 3.04.2 Similar acceleration to the 370Z, totally killed it's time. Underscores my opinion of the 370Z's suspension and dynamics. Horrible, difficult to control over anything but a billiard-table, and not very good for sweeping corners.
Audi RS5 - 3.04.3 Impressive.
BMW M6 - 3.04.7 We all knew it was a touring car.
BMW M5 - 3.05.2 See above.
Audi S6 - 3.09.8 Touring car.
BMW 335i sedan - 3.13.2 Disappointing.
Hyundai Genesis 3.8 R - 3.13.9 About what I thought.
Dodge Charger Pursuit - 3.17.8 Oink oink!
Subaru BRZ - 3.18.6 About what I figured. 2008 S2000 CR did 3:15.0...wait for the STI model to compete with that.
Ford Focus St - 3.21.4 Cool.
Chevy Caprice PPV - 3.23.0 I care, why?
Fiat 500 Abarth - 3.27.3 See above.


What are your guys' thoughts on these lap times?
I feel like this event every year shows a lot of upsets! Such as a Boxster S beating a 2013 M6??
Check out this link too: Lightning Lap 2012 - - Car and Driver
For example, a Cayman R beat a 911 Turbo??

Any other upsets you guys see?
My thoughts.
