The Porsche 911 GT3 RS has lapped the N rburgring in 6m 56.4s. If that doesn"t mean anything, allow us to add context. The time makes it one of the world"s fastest production cars to blitz one of the world"s trickiest, most dangerous race circuits. It"s not quite as quick as the Lamborghini Hurac n Performante, which managed a 6m 52.01s, but it is faster than such fast things as Porsche"s own 918 Spyder, the Lamborghini Aventador SV and other amazing machines. Nissan GT-R. Enzo. SLS AMG. Etc. Etc. The time is also and this is scarcely believable 24 seconds faster than the previous GT3 RS around the Ring. TWENTY FOUR SECONDS. We suspect lap conditions for the old GT3 RS played a hand in this, but still. Porsche did four laps works drivers Kevin Estre and Lars Kern the humans in question and each lap was under seven minutes, and barely tenths of a second apart. Now that"s consistency.
