I hope so, I'd like to see how they timed this run, but untill then no one will know, there's really 3 different times that can be posted as the "lap time around the 'Ring" 1: full lap, 2: limited speed through T13 to allow safe access from the old exit/entrance so it's cut short which yields a 5-10 second shorter lap, or 3: bridge to gantry which yields a 20-30 second shorter lap, knowing that the times posted by cars like the Carrera GT, Mclaren SLR, or even the ZO6 are of the full lap, it would be pure RICE if Nissan uses the bridge to gantry time to mislead the public, the ricers and the GTR fan boys, I'm not a hater and I don't wanna sound like a hater, I think Nissan did a good job with the GTR but if the 7:29 time was indeed that of the full lap, that would translate to a BTG time of 7:00's and based on the GTR's specs it is inconceivable.
