Watch: 580bhp 2012 Camaro ZL1 Wrung Round ‘Ring.

Listen to the supercharged whine of the Camaro ZL1’s 580bhp and 556 lb-ft LSA V8 as it’s flogged around the famed Nürburgring Nordschleife:

Onboard the Glorious 1974 Kremer 911 RSR at the ‘Ring.

Watch below as Wolfgang Pohl tames the thirty-seven year old 3.0-liter RSR around the Nordschleife’s 154 turns.

Watch: Kawasaki ZX-10R Laps the Nürburgring Stupid Fast.

While a 7 minute 50 second whirl around the 14.173 mile Nordschleife may not be the fastest lap set, especially compared to the recent Lexus LFA Nürburgring Edition lap and other sports and exotic cars, it’s damn fast for two wheels. And scary too. Just think, drivers are mildly protected in their cars, but when a rider spills, there’s not much runoff before both bike and body slam the guard rail.

So. Much. Respect.

Watch: Lexus LFA Laps the Green Hell in a Record 7:14.64.

The Lexus LFA Nürburgring Edition lapped the Nürburgring Nordschleife in a record 7 minutes 14.64 seconds, besting the standard LFA by more than 8 seconds. If you’re wondering how fast that really is, consider this:

Porsche 911 GT2 RS – 7:18
2012 Corvette ZR1 – 7:19.63 (watch)
Dodge Viper ACR – 7:22.1 (watch)

The 570bhp 4.8-liter V10 may push the gussied up Toyota beyond its “standard” production competition, but still lags behind the radically nasty Gumpert Apollo Sport (7:11.54), the not-even-really-in-the-same-class, Radical SR8 LM (6:48), and the from-another-planet Pagani Zonda R (6:47.5 – watch). Regardless, it’s still impressive, but shouldn’t that be expected from an exotic with a ten year development period?
