Default Curious!

Having driven "The Ring" twice (Euro E-36 M3 and 911 Turbo), just curious how previous posters estimated the Z's lap times?

I started by feeling sarcastic and jocular. I then recalled what would be an insanely fast lap time and proceeded to type "7:32".

Fact of the matter is that I've never seen a 370Z 'Ring lap time yet. Wish someone with true skill would get a Z out there and log a fast lap. Looking at Wiki, the Boxster S, Cayman S, and Z4 logged 8:09 to 8:17. The Z should be right around there in professional hands.

I find it bonkers that there is a European Nurburgring edition of the car, yet the car doesn't have an official lap time at the 'Ring.

With warp drive engines it can do it in 1/10th of a second.

I also guarantee that it can do it in MORE than 7:32.

All I know is, if it doesn't stay above 55 mph, it will explode.

Default Dnf

With a bone stock 370Z, my estimate is a big fat DNF.

Here are three possible (probable) outcomes:

1. The 370Z would go into limp home mode and get rear ended by Sabine Schmitz in a Ford Transit Van.

2. Going around a hard right sweeper fuel starvation would kick in and the 370Z would be towed off the track by a wrecker.

3. The brakes would go into ice mode right before the carousel and launch the 370Z into the surrounding countryside.

Or maybe some combination of the above
