I was having a look at the 'ring lap times and saw Simon's car go round in 8:38

Simon, have you still got the article, and why was the NSX time so slow?

I've still got the article, somewhere.............

The time is so slow as it was a full lap and not bridge to gantry which is how most laps are timed, think there's about 20 - 30 seconds in it.

I didn't realise there were two timing points. I assume the sub 8 minute road car barrier is for the full (longer) lap?

Is the 6m11s lap record the full lap. I am assuming so.

For me 3 beeps from a roll until someone looses their bottle is more indicative of vehicle performance.

The ring is as much driver as it is car.

Just my 2p.

Cheers,

But the Hockenheim time wasn't the best either

Slower than an S2000 - surely not!
