I matched the Zonda R WR on the Nurburgring (off by 3 tenths) with Sports Medium, and that wasn't even a grinded laptime.
Racing tires offer WAY to much grip to match the real car.
Stock Zonda R (The one found in arcade mode)
Sport Medium Tires
ABS = 1
Other aids = OFF
Track edge set to REAL

Nice driving, it looks real!
The most annoying thing is the sound, compare the sound of game and real and its like driving a milkshakemixer in the game and a crazy sportscar with living engine and exhaust in real life. Why cant they just add a little more love to the sound??? (then again, if you love elevator music i guess sound isn't their strong part)

Awesome lap though, kudos!
I had a go at the Top Gear track and the Nordschleife after watching this last night. Racing hard tyres were pretty slippy around the Top Gear track, but I managed a 1:06.something despite still struggling with the entry to the first corner.
At the 'Ring, my first clean lap was 6:28 so I definitely agree that there's way too much grip from even the hard slicks. Alternatively, maybe whoever did the real lap did stop for a sandwich, as Clarkson suggested?

If you watched top gear I doubt you can relax as Clarkson was doing on sports medium honestly. The car seems stucked to the ground.
That time on the nurb seems very slow actually for a zonda R. I've seen a GT-R new model (not sure if it was V-Spec or another newer model) did it in 7.14 and the zonda did it in 6.47 ?
For the difference of performance and tyres it dont seems that much.

no im not too bothered - let people talk about what they want...
Im just getting a bit bored of putting a new post up for 5 mins later an admin strolling in to close it because he/she/it thinks that the search function is actually a good thing...
pretty much every post could be closed because each subject rolls into another...
Anyway rant done.
Zonda R Rules.
PS I love anarchy.

PD got it all wrong. In GT5, sports tyres are supposed to be semi slicks, but in actual fact they offer as much grip as a slick tyre in real life. Each car should come with the actual tyres that it comes with from the manufacturer, otherwise all these time trials and comparisons are pointless. Tyres are the most important part of the car so if they are not done right, realism goes out the window.
The first lap I ever did with the Zonda R around the Nordschleife I got a 6:39 on racing hards, nearly 10 seconds faster than the real life lap time.

For what it's worth, I did some laps online in a 458 on sport hard tires and did some 1'18's (I think) after the tires got warm.
I just looked up power laps on wiki, it did a 1'19.1 on the show.
