They might stop to catch their breath but the Nurburgring wars never really go away and Chevrolet have laid down the gauntlet once again by unleashing their 2012 Corvette ZR1, that sports some upgrades, on the ‘Ring to shave some precious seconds off its already incredible lap time.

The car used was equipped with a set of optional Michelin Pilot Sport Cup Zero Pressure tyres, that together with the Performance Traction Management (PTM), managed to shave six seconds off the previous lap time of 7:26.4, bringing the ZR1’s new time to a staggering 7:19.63.

There’s a video of the run so strap on your imaginary seat belts and hit play.

<p>The recent Tokyo Auto Salon did host a huge number of JDMs, but it seems that most of them were dominated by the monstrous Nissan GT-R R35s. Coupled with the great support given by the...
