If you were to divide the Nurburgring into 12 sections from start to finish, these 12 challenges are what you'd get. There's no full-lap challenge--each challenge simply tackles a section of the track. P-1 starts at the start/finish line, and Q-6 ends at the start/finish line. Altogether, they comprise a full lap.
Also, you're in the same car for all 12 challenges, so it's very easy to continue doing well after you get a good grasp on handling it.

The Nurburgring is a bloody tough track and is fun when you get it right,
I bought the Gran Turismo Special Edition, and got the Bugatti Veyron. I can tell you one thing, that car isnt built for that track at all, it barely stays on the road on some parts. I managed to get a 6:52 around the Ring in the Veyron, but i reckon some cars with half the power of the veyron can make it around the ring in the same time cause they are a little bit more flexible, and you can hold the speed with them around the corners a bit more.
Im really loving this game atm, especially the drift challenge option.

Nice time! Best I managed in the Veyron was 7:25, due to a few spins. I would have got near your time in the Ford GT, but mis-timed my braking coming off the straight and came to a dead stop against the armco barrier - leaving me with a 7:30 time, or if it were reality, a nice tombstone.
Back on topic, I finished the Nurburgring challenges the other day. It's not too difficult once you get used to the way the M5 handles.

I tried a lap a couple days ago with the Spec V on S2's (keeping the same default tyre as GT4) no aids, getting a 1'51.xxx (IIRC) at the Adenauer Forst split and final time was 7'25.xxx.
To be honest I think that sort of TCS would be slowing you down on corner exit especially at low speed, have you tried the Spec V without it? It helps (is most often faster too) to select a gear above the recommended. Otherwise maybe drop the TCS a little lower but yeah with a 1:50 you are well on track.

I noticed (while joining this https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=121347) that when I took the TCS off it made the car a bit faster.... no delays in acceleration.
You're right. I'll give it a try next time around the ring.
Still have a lot to practice to do though.
After Adenauer Forst is all new to me.
....taking it one section at a time.
