If you hang around fast cars long enough, you learn a simple rule: there’s always someone faster. That seems hard to believe if we’re talking about the Corvette ZR1’s lap time of 7:26 on the hallowed, fabled and somewhat overexposed Nurburgring. But Brit super car maker Ultima has set out to not only beat the Bow Tie’s time, but decimate it. The company was boasting that their GTR720 could lay down a lightning fast 6:55 on the German tarmac and even went so far as to book time at the ‘Ring. Unfortunately, its monsoon season in those parts—less than perfect record setting conditions. Word from Autoblog is that the car ran the ‘Ring anyway, but Ultima isn’t saying how well they did playing in the rain. Do we think the GTR720 can beat the ZR1? With a 2.6 second 0-60 and a top speed of 230 mph, there’s little doubt the Noble-inspired ride could give the ‘Vette some competition with the right monkey behind the tiller. Still, 30 seconds is a helluva long time on the ‘Ring.
