Pagani Zonda R- laprecord Nurnburgring

[DavidV]

Pagani - Pirelli Tyre - Assuring new technologies and materials are fit for production means also putting the vehicle's components under severe stresses, exceeding those normally encountered in every day road driving.

The Nürburgring Nordschleife is the most demanding track in the world, for man and machine, an ordeal that each Pagani has to pass, only one of many in the entire development phase.

The Zonda R serves as the ultimate test bench, a car able to reach acceleration figures and speeds that are not possible with a road car.

This is further underlined by a laptime of 6:47,5 min for the 20,832 km Nordschleife. Driver: Marc Basseng

The question is... could a Veyron theoretically beat this?

No, I don't think so.
A Veyron is too heavy and as you can see you need a lot of downforce to go round so fast. The Bugatti does not create that much downforce.

No way, the Veyron can't beat a good amount of cars. It's a big heavy straightline monster and that's about it. Compared to what tuner cars do the Veyron isn't even all that impressive with its acceleration for the price.

6:47 is seriously absurd.

HOLLY $#@!!!!!

your so ignorant when you dont like a car sticky!! every production car is slow compared to tuner cars!!, the omega runs 8.6@ almost 170, a ugr gallardo will trap over 170 so every production car is slow!!! for your information the gtr is the 4th production car on the list and it weighs a hamburger under 4000lb, the ss is just over 4000 and lets just say it has 1 or 2 ponies more than the gtr! its dct like the gtr, weighs about the same, has a dct, has better brakes, and way more power, so why wouldnt it have a shot at the top cars on that list

[LZH]

That's a very quick time but to be perfectly honest, it should be. That thing is a full on race car. Also, how much are these things - $1.5mm ?? I can think of quite a few race cars one could go out an buy for that kind of money that would most likely be as fast if not faster. Sick car nonetheless.

I don't think the Veyron is all that impressive for well over a million dollars, sorry. Especially considering this Zonda will whipe the floor with it on the track for less money and with less power.

Veyron is a Statement of wealth not race car.

Then it's a failure as a supercar when it is more about how much it costs than how it performs.

It's a super car we all know that but it is not a Track Car like the Pagani is.

Great car you have to make excuses for.
