I'm too lazy to link it but I just watched a YT vid of a ZR1 and Hellcat going at it at a 1/4 mile track. ZR1 gets walked every time. The Hellcat's numbers are a little slow for stock and the ZR1 just gets embarrassed. I'm not gonna fool myself into thinking a Hellcat is really faster than a ZR1 from a few races on teh interweb though.
(or should I run to the C6ZR1 section and post all about it....)

Edit: so I just watched that vid you last posted. If you don't realize that ZR1 is making at least 100 more HP over stock... Haha.... C'mon man.....

Put Mero (who is an absolute wizard at the Ring) in there and you'll get a good 5+ seconds off that 7:13. Sport Auto runs tons of cars at Nordschliefe, so they know the course, but there's no way Christian Gebhardt had time to really learn the car.
