[QUOTE=05RollaXRS;6651202]The #005 was delivered in Naples, FL and now resides in MI. Is that your dad's????
YES
Did your dad confirm the time was 7:14??? Thanks.
YES, according to him, the Lexus brass recieved the official time during the dinner which is why Akira and the Chief Engineer were posing for photos, I assume.

It could be interpreted two ways. It could be either a customer car or the car was in exactly same configuration the way it would be delivered to the customer:
I will have video on Friday evening. To clarify the ZR1 used a special prototype racing tire. The Nurburgring Edition LFA was used for this record as it would be delivered to a customer, nothing modified.

That's an awesome time, it goes to show you the dynamics of the LFA. In the video of 7:22 it was hitting 290kmh+ on the uphill straight, that's proof enough this car has plenty of power. I can only imagine what this could do at other tracks. Truly they brought their 'race car to the street'.

In a straight line, 11.0 - 11.2 seconds in the 1/4 mile without a doubt.

I would love to see the official Ring lap time for the regular LFA just to compare to the Ring edition.
