Charoudin also makes an important point about all of these times: cars like the ZR1X and ZR1 might not be the ultimate when it comes to repeatable results. He calls out Porsche and some of its high-end RM-tuned examples in the same way. Both are so extreme in their engineering that they might not be able to repeat their lap times back to back.

Chevrolet has announced that the new Corvette ZR1X has become the fastest American car to complete a lap on the demanding Nürburgring circuit in Germany.

A trio of Corvette supercars — piloted by Chevy engineers — raced epic German track to challenge Mercedes and Porsche, including the ZR1X hypercar.
