While the douchebag in charge of Corvette program, +Tadge Juechter recommends DOING THE MATH to find out the +General Motors flagship's Nurburgring lap time and kool aid drinking Corvette nutswingers masturbate online to sub 7 minute pipe dreams, the other manufacturers certainly do not fuck around and instead, manage to record very impressive lap times on Nurburgring track.
First, the newest Nissan GTR Nismo managed to literally rape "the most track capable Corvette ever", including a very impressive Nurburgring lap time and now, there is another contender that is also considerably more track capable than the joke called C7 Z06. The newest entry in Z06 bitch slapping competition is no other than the PRE PRODUCTION 2016 Honda Civic 4-door Type R. The time itself is not all that impressive at 7:50:63 when compared to the full list of the Nurburgring fastest but it is very impressive in its class: FRONT WHEEL DRIVE cars. Also, the lap time is there, the first time Honda took the car to Nurburgring, no bad weather, no chicken shit excuses.
Unlike GM, Honda was smart enough to go with turbo charging the puny 2 liter engine and the results are most impressive, besting the previous Renault record by about FOUR SECONDS. Obviously there is no heat soak issue and unlike with Z06, plenty of traction in a fairly cold weather.
Considering the Z06 never supposedly even completed a full lap at Nurburgring, at least according to Juechter, by default, the new Civic is more track capable and records faster lap than the Z06 porker.
Of course, the Japanese car is considerably more aerodynamic, taking full advantage of its turbocharged power.
So when is Juechter going to grow some balls and deliver actual lap time instead of the idiotic finger math? Apparently NEVER, considering the absolute mechanical and aerodynamic failure of this so called PERFORMANCE BARGAIN.
One thing is certain, the buyers of the 2016 Honda Civic Type R could actually fill in the blanks on a commemorative plaque unlike the buyers of the Z06. Funny how the weather never cooperates only for Juechter and his crew. Who will bitch slap that Z06 failure next? Toyota Prius seems like a great and formidable contender, should be a driver's race, optimistically assuming Z06 can actually finish the race.
Do the finger math Tadge or better yet, stick those fingers up your ass to give them a meaningful purpose. Oh and yeah, no barn door on the rear of this car, a real wing. Get a hint Tadge!!!

We live in tough times: Which car to get Honda Type R. VW GTI, Ford Focus RS, Ford GT350R????? I love that the high tech in these cars equals performance, reliability, usability (4 doors / hatch) and fuel economy. Can't say that about the Corvette with its one step above a flat head motor and with horse buggy inspired leaf springs front and rear. Also the vette is a poorly made factory kit car, might as well get a Cobra, it is much more reliable and you can put a 5.0 in it.
